I came here with my family and left wishing I never went out to to eat in the first place. No one greeted us coming and once we were finally acknowledged it took forever to take our orders. Bad enough, after asking for tables to be set up for our party, we had to set up the tables ourselves. After finally placing orders, the green tea shots my lady got taste nothing but sour mix. We ordered a good amount of empanadas and didn’t receive them all. Once we finally got the few empanadas we did receive i kid you not the shrimp in the shrimp empanadas we literally damn near frozen literally cold to the touch. Really horrible experience. Nice playlist though.

The worst experience I’ve ever had eating out! The service was absolutely trash, we waited over 30 mins to even get greeted another 20 to get water which came out with no straws. We ordered our food & that took another hr to come out, once the food came out everything was cold and I don’t mean like warm either I mean freezing cold.I specifically ordered a shrimp empanada and the shrimp felt as if they took it out the freezer and stuffed the empanada then fried it. The dough part was hot but the inside was completely cold it was disgusting, had to laugh at the server advising ‘be careful it’s hot’ the drinks were just as bad. They taste like the juice or syrup they used were spoiled. We talk to the bartender about it, she became upset she remade the drinks & they came out just as bad. She then proceeded to inform they don’t take drink backs which okay cool BUT make it right then! Never corrected them just stated she tasted them & the tasted right to her. The bar looked super dirty. The restaurant was dirty. Whole establishment was honestly a mess. Never in my life have I experienced something like this place. I was with a party of 4 adult at 2 children, every single person complained about their food. We spoke to the server about our concerns who also advised they don’t take food back yet nothing was fixed. To top it off the server finally came with the check. She brought us a bill of over $200, we ordered off the happy hour menu and nothing was rung up happy hour. We were missing, I believe, 4 empanadas that were never brought to us yet were included in the bill we never received our rice and plantains yet were included in the bill. It was ridiculous, I had to just laugh. I couldn’t believe how rude the servers were, how trifling & disgusting the food/drinks were ohhhhh and they never brought us any napkins silverware nothing. It really was a mess. We tried to speak up and were left ignored yet forced to pay. It was so bad. My party and I truly a wasted our time this was supposed to be a family night out & it turned out to be a horrible night out. Never again will we visit this place.

I visited on a Saturday morning, 2024, for brunch. The waitess was very accommodating and sweet. My friends and I enjoyed our food. Nada brulee, waffles, and shrimp and grits. The chicken and salmon empanadas were so good.

There’s a couple issues with this place, but the biggest one is how they overcharge. Two people went out to dinner, and had a few empanadas each, vegan. They also each had two drinks. The person paying the bill did not look at the receipt before he paid, And only later when did he realize he had paid $177. Obviously that’s not correct. He went back one time after that and ordered an empanada. One. He was charged 12 bucks and after more than 10 minutes waiting, he gave up and left, and never got his food, so yeah… no more with this place.

I saw "Empanadas" on the map when I had Jury Duty and decided to try it. Boy am I glad that I did! The Empanada was really good and the stew and rice side was divine! I need to go back and try more of the offerings.

The empanadas were dry. I have never in my life paid $9 for one beef empanada. The rice was terrible and the potatoes in the beans were not cooked. Too many green olives in it.
