“Amazing!!! Just had my first 3 empanadas, Quito Beef, Chicken and Spinach. Each better than the last. Perfectly seasoned, crunchy dough and the perfect serving size. They also fill each to the max!Paola was super sweet to chat with and the service was quick. If you can eat in, enjoy the awesome view. Looking forward to many more visits.“

“Delicious and fresh. The fresh corn tortillas are the best I've ever had. The Pepian de Gallina was SO good! Papusas were tasty and not greesy. What a great find!Kid-friendliness: We had a baby with us and the space and table arrangement was good.“

“Delicious authentic Brazilian food with amazing service . Fun experience too!“

“Emelina's is a great Peruvian food joint. The service is brilliant. Everything on the menu looked delicious and left us confused as we wanted to order everything. We devoured the ceviche and grilled fish. It was cooked to perfection. We will be back to try out the rest of the items on the menu.“

“Stopped by this morning for a breakfast burrito and this place did NOT disappoint! $15 for great size burrito and this included the added $1.50 charge to include chorizo. Seriously one of the more flavorful breakfast burritos I've had in awhile. The Orange hot sauce was not really spicy, but great flavor and paired perfectly with the burrito. My only complaint is it's a bit on pricier side. I wished having meat option was not an additional charge but overall great burrito and I'd return!“

“Hole in the wall with amazing food. Literally a hole cuz it’s just a door! But everyone should go! Yummmmmmmmm“

“Overdue review - came here for a board dinner. Beautiful spacious comfortable space. The food was really good! Want to go back when they have the cauliflower main dish back - it was delicious! Didn't really have enough room to do the delicious desserts justice - another reason to go back. Unfortunately they close at 7pm due to being in a office building space. There's an underground path to the parking garage - it's a little tricky to figure out but it's there. It is a bit of a walk - might want to drop off the rest of your party at the restaurant first before parking.“

“Beautiful place, nice service! It’s my first this place,maybe soon again!“

“When I used to work in RWC I ate at their original location just outside of downtown. They've opened a second locale in Menlo and has been quietly opened for a year and I hadnt realized it. Especially because it is in the same strip mall as one of my fave Mexican places, El Fogon, which strangely had an Atherton Mom and her teenage daughter going to. this would never happen pre covid. Speaking of when they opened apparently most folks wanted the original location which is more Panaderia than Restaurant back then to have a bar. So they built this one with a nice bar and now post covid the demand for a bar isnt as strong. I hope that changes because I think their food is quite good. Also this locale brings in the bakery products from the other location so it is a small case. I had a conversation with a server a while back at a sushi restaurant of all places and found out they were from Guatemala. We got to talking about where all the Guatemlan food was and they said El Pollo Campero was basically the only one around. So when I told them about the original location of Guatemalteca we googled it and this one showed up. So during my errands I met a friend here for a meal. We had to go for the stuff we'd never heard of and that paid dividends. The Hilachas is a beef stew that texturally like ropa vieja with the protein being beef being in a thick gravy like stew of tomato and other aromatics. This was served with a salad, pureed black beans and rice. The churrasco was grilled beef similar to carne asada but spiced differently. it had similar components to the Hilachas but also came with a chili and some crema. We also got a Gutemalan Tamal of pork to share and they included the last of their Gutemalan style chile relleno which is smaller but amazingly tasty. The bonus here are the hand made tortillas! Food was a big win and since you're surrounded in a neighborhood of great Mexican food, Id stick to the Gutemalan fare to broaden your horizons. THe brother and sister which run this locale speak really good ENglish but they still helped me practice my Spanish which was nice. A great new add to the neighborhood and now it's going to be hard because I have to choose this or EL Fogon in the same block“

“Villa del Sol specialty is the Argentine asado (Argentine BBQ), I highly recommend their grill asado for two. It comes with a variety of meat, chicken, pork, sausages & sweetbread.“
