Good authentic food in the Athens area with a good atmosphere. Three stars because they’ve increased their prices ridiculously. Also why is a cubano without the side and drink still the same price as with the drink?

I went here on a Saturday night with family and the food was okay. I really couldn’t enjoy my meal like that because a rat was the outside patio where you sit and that spoil my appetite. I really think they need to clean the area more and do some about the rat that’s running around.

Lot of confusion ordering because we were going to take the menu to the table. Later we found out that the order has to be given and payment made at the counter before you get seated. Overall amazing experience and lots of indoor and outdoor space. Great service and food.

Very relaxed and relaxing atmosphere. We had a small gathering to send off a coworker/friend and it was great. Super chill and friendly service. The food was really good. I was so surprised that the location was so close to UGA campus. Definitely will be going back. Next time I'll add pictures.

Food had very well-balanced flavors. The (chicken, steak) empanadas were perfectly executed, I could eat like 10 of them. The veggie Cuban sandwich was surprisingly good. To be clear, this is not an impossible-sandwich, so no meat alternative or replacement. Also, make sure to eat it all ASAP while it's fresh. All good foods have strict time limits, and this is no exception. The steak quesadilla was excellently prepared, as expected.
Only oddity is there's no coffee, which was unexpected because they used empty cafe bustelo tin cans as decor. ? What a tease. The banana shake was tasty though, as expected.
Also also, I can imagine this place being wayyy over capacity at peak hours. Parking is probably like 20-30 spots, and each spot is like a modest 8.5ft wide, so don't bring your h1.
Unquestionably, I will be returning at the first opportunity when I'm in town again. Or maybe I'll plan a trip around it. Don't judge me. You'd do the same.
Absolute favorite latin-y restaurant in Athens! From the guava empanadas to the fish tacos, I want to try everything on the menu. This establishment is jam-packed with things to look at in every crevice. Equipped with an old Pac Man arcade game, plenty of old school rides, and outside lil bikes for the kiddos and a volleyball net + sand. There's also a very neat fountain in the middle of the building. Not to mention a very cool old bus that they use for catering/parties, I'm assuming. It's a marvelous spot to spend a meal. Try one of their smoothie things, too. You won't regret it.

I love the food, the only thing is the single use items like the plates and forks that are used there. Otherwise, the food was amazing and they had vegan options which is great.
I’m very disappointed because me & my family love the food from here however today we found a dead roach on the rice that my toddler was about to eat , I truly feel disgusted and extremely disappointed in this place .
