Great chicken mole empanadas, just was in Mexico, so their cafe con leche came in a distant 4th to what I had in Mexico.
Great empanadas and lattes. The black bean plantain is a go-to of mine, as well as the chicken tinga. My kids regularly order the nutella banana empanada and ask to go back often.
Great empanadas but what isn't great deep fried. Grilled veggie taco was carrots, cauliflower broccoli tossed in a flour tortilla with nothing else. Worst veggie taco in the city. The other tacos were great.
