The whole environment is so inviting: the music, the chairs, the atmosphere... everything just feels warm and welcoming.

I live about 20 minutes away, and I would happily come back here anytime.

Went here for a Mother's Day breakfast and it did not dissapoint. We use to have Colombian…read morebreakfast quite often in Queens so we were very excited to find this spot in Mineola. It has all the Colombian classics because it is a bakery as well. If you bring kids or non adventurous eaters they also have typical American breakfast options like eggs, bacon and pancakes. There is an electronic menu which is kind of unnecessary but there are pictures for people not familiar with the cuisine. Overall great experience and will be back.

This is my favorite restaurant but I geniunely do not understand why the cashier/worker in the…read morebakery section always has a nasty attitude when taking orders. We were the only people in the entire restaurant and we were just discussing what to purchase and when we asked a single question she looked visibly annoyed. Why are you working in a place that requires so much customer communication if you appear to hate it every-time a customer even opens their mouth? Es un falto de respeto y ojalá aprenda a comunicarse mejor con las personas. Apart from that, the food is always great, it's just the service that is so lackluster (from the bakery) and makes me not want to come back.

Thanks to the Chef. Also for doing a wonderful job. Fish was awesome. God bless all of you for doing an incredible job day and day out. I do not know if the owner of this business reads reviews but he or she needs to take time and acknowledge these employees for an incredible job Many blessings.

This small eatery brands itself as an Argentinian-Italian restaurant…read more I ordered a slice of the Fugazzetta Pizza--onions, olive oil, Parmigianna cheese, oregano. It was loaded with onions, but it was missing the umami flavor that would have made it taste robust. Perhaps an infusion of white truffle oil would have done the trick. I also ordered a Zeppole, which was dry inside. I did not like it. I like mine moist and recently baked. Mine tasted like it had been sitting on the counter for hours. Milton took my order, and he seemed friendly. The interior was reasonably clean, so I ate inside. I am so turned off by what I had that I might not give this place another try.

My cousin and I went inside and were greeted by a nice fellow behind the counter who patiently explained the difference between Grandma pizza and Sicilian pizza to her. The pizza looked really good. It was. The Grandma was very good, and crispy. The spinach pizza was so full of cheese and spinach, I couldn't even finish it, because I had already finished the other two slices... one of which was the best... an olive slice from a small pie that had a few whole (pitted) green olives and a little roasted red pepper on it. The slice had the distinct flavor of olive even when you weren't biting into one of the olives. LOVED IT. We say at a high-top table, enjoyed the atmosphere there and I had no complaints. Should I find myself back in the area looking for a decent pizza meal, this will be the spot.

The service is also great, the waitresses are friendly and attentive. A must try here is also their sangria, it's so delicious and perfect amount of sweet and tart!

This location was formerly known as The Inkan Restaurant & Pisco Bar, but it had closed some time in 2021. Latino Café & Bar replaced this location afterwards (different owners). They have Peruvian fare as well as some Latin American dishes. I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally decided to order lunch from here today. For lunch, I ordered the Lomo Saltado and a Chicken Empanada on DoorDash. The food was piping hot when it arrived and tasted so fresh! The steak was nice and tender. All of the food was seasoned very well. I also loved the spicy green sauce that came with my empanada. The food was very reasonably priced as well. I'll definitely be giving more dishes a try from this place. I highly suggest you do the same :) *Note* This restaurant makes delivery orders only on DoorDash and Uber Eats. They do not make orders on GrubHub! My order on GrubHub had unexpectedly been cancelled, but when I called the restaurant, woman on the phone told me they don't offer GrubHub.
