The food is really good and at a decent price! I myself am puerto rican and can definitely say it is authentic. The food portions are great, I myself couldn’t even finish it. The lady who served was very sweet and kind- she made sure we liked the food and even gave me and my brother a little extra! 10/10

Great fresh food! I highly recommend the chicken empanadas! I had plenty of chicken empanadas in the past, but these are the best ever. After dinner, my husband and I really enjoyed the apple empanadas! Again, super fresh and delicious! Ontop of everything, the woman who runs the place is the sweetest and most friendly person ever! Definitely come try it out! I would have taken pictures of our food, but we ate it so quickly!

I absolutely LOVED this place! It was so vibrant with its culture and flag EVERYWHERE! I was trying to get here for the longest time and finally saw it was open. I had already gotten food but I HAD to check it out! I got the Passion Fruit Juice and the Apple Pie Empanda and it was SO DELICIOUS. It makes me so excited to try more of their food. I’m definitely coming back and will be returning with friends!

Food was really good here. I had the chicken and beef empanadas and they were filled with meat unlike other places. I also had the hot Doritos taco bag and it was filled to the top with toppings. Tasted so good. Lots of cheese & sour cream which I love. Nothing dry about it & filling. Generous portions and we got our monies worth. Tres leches was also good. Me & my boyfriend will definitely be returning to try something else

FAMILY! That’s what this place is, family. I was greeted with respect and kindness. I was looking for a real meal, real food and I got just that. You get your moneys worth. Very generous servings so bring someone with you or plan to eat some tomorrow. Lastly I want to say. EVERYTHING is made with LOVE! I was gifted a tres leches and I will say I am not normally a fan but, OH MY GOODNESS :) I’m sweetie….and that cake hits every spot! Beef walking taco- YUMMY! The meat perfect the rice- perfect. Empanadas- 9.5/10 a little too cheesy for me but that’s a personal preference. Overall it was better than expected.

Went because I was in town and always look for unique places to eat. Pork was flavorful and tender. Rice and peas were the perfect texture. I will travel anywhere for good empanadas. The empanada dough was light, tender, and perfectly fried. I liked the beef slightly more than the chicken but that’s just my preference. Will definitely return.
