Saltenas bread and pastry. (Chicha mirada) I enjoyed the Jamaica juice a little extra on sugar. Beef Pot roast saltenas was good it curved hunger. Couldn't try all of them

I tried this hidden gem on Friday for breakfast. I was able to order the fried fish with my vegetable omelet and it was so delicious. The service is wonderful. My husband had the chorizo omelet he also was delighted with his meal.

A hidden gem, I had the most amazing experience at this South American bakery and restaurant! The chicken and beef saltena were absolutely to die for, so flavorful and perfectly cooked. The bread was absolutely divine soft, warm, and perfectly fresh, with just the right amount of flavor and texture. The empanadas were perfectly crispy. I was taken aback at how good this place was and the quality as well as quantity. Not to mention, the service is some of the best you can receive so warm and welcoming, with the kindest Salvadoran ladies making you feel right at home. Every bite was a treat, and I can’t wait to come back for more!

This Bolivian restaurant is a hidden gem! The place suffers from a bad business name but don't be fooled. The food here is to die for. I've been a regular at this place for a while! If you don't know what to order, here is my recommendation for your first try. Get Silpancho which is thinly rolled beef fried with bread crumps served on oiled up rice, slices of potatoes, eggs and onion, tomato combo to bring some balance. This dish is so good that I have to keep coming back. I also like the fact that every time I came, the taste is exactly the same - super consistent. Just beware, the portion is HUGE! If you don't eat a lot, this can easily be two meals. Pair it with freshly made Horchata drink! Then get Alfajores for dessert. Amazing food! The place is quite small so I wouldn't bring a big party. I'd be surprised if they can serve 15 customers comfortably. The decor is also not there but I'm not really complaining here. This is not that kind of restaurant. You come here for the authentic food. Communication could be a challenge as I found not all waitresses speak fluent English. However, that shouldn't matter after you read this review because you already know what to order! I bet your foodie azs you gon enjoy this gem! lol

Amazing little spot super friendly staff and patrons. Saltenas are 10/10 perfectly made and extremely hard to find. Had 4 of the chicken saltenas.

This is the 2nd time I've eaten here in several years. The first time I had the buttered Trout, and it was delicious! So buttery and tender. Everytime I think of this place, I would think of how yummy the fish was. Today, I came back for the fish, but decided to get the Tuesday's special, Paella. It has a nice balance of meat and rice. I has mussles, tiny clams, calamari, shrimp, sausage, and chicken. The rice was a little more moist than I prefer and I am ok with the seasoning used. I don't see myself ordering it again... But definitely the Trout next time. The staff seems more quiet and reserved, but they did their job well. The restaurant appears to be clean. They even gave me and a couple of patrons a small slice of cake. I excited because I have been staring at their cakes and am wondering how they will taste. The cake was moist and has a lot of flavor. The icing melted in my mouth. The little slice is plenty for me after the big plate of Paella. I got a table by the window and the sun was shining in. The waitress was so thoughtful and lowered the shades without me asking... I didn't even think to lower the shade because the sun wasn't shining on my, just my table. I didn't finish my food, and the waitress was so helpful offered me a container to take my food even though I wasn't planning on taking it. She cleared my table as I enjoy the free cake. One of the reviewers mentioned a 20% tip added to the order. That didn't happen to me. Maybe for large orders or group? Overall, I have a great experience. Will come back again... Sooner than several years

The name is a little misleading. They serve authentic Latin American cuisine. Not a huge place, seating is limited. Consider takeout. I’m a huge fan of their saltenas and fried plantains. Very affordable. Entree portions are generous in my opinion. I’ve only been for lunch and dinner. The bakery case has lots of treats that I need to explore.
