Great dine in experience! Looking for a chill meal late on a Saturday and came across this place. Fries, empanadas, and sauces were all 10/10! Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Would come back!

Food was amazing, stopped by here on a Monday about two / three weeks ago at around mid day and had the pleasure of Lucas as our server. He was very friendly and attentive with us. We sat outside as we had just come from the vet with our dog.
Fast forward to this Monday, my husband and I decided to have dinner here.
Unfortunately the service was bad this time around. Not sure of the name of our server but she was very rude and argued with us when we told her she brought the wrong drinks. As a server you should not be arguing with customers.
We ordered the steak and fries for my husband - medium well & I ordered the cheese empanadas.
We also ordered two frozen margaritas.
The drinks came out first and they were wrong. As soon as she placed the first cup down I said “I’m sorry but we ordered the frozen margaritas and these are not frozen.” She stopped and looked at me before saying “no you did not, you ordered these.” I was taken aback honestly. This is not the way you speak to customers even if they were wrong which we weren’t. There was no apology, she simply walked away with the wrong drinks.
A few minutes later she came with the right drinks.
Another few mins later the food arrived… however it was the wrong food. It was two orders of empanadas and one elote.
I start telling her hey this is not what we ordered, but as soon as I finished the table two seats down raised their hand and said that was their order. They also were visibly annoyed, and I could tell this was not the first issue they had throughout their dinner.
She apologized to us and said she hadn’t even looked at the ticket (Which is honestly a mystery to me because that should be the first thing you should check & also we had just placed the order a few minutes ago with her so our food wouldn’t be ready especially for steak .)
I would understand if the restaurant was full but we were 1 of 4 tables there. 2 of which had already gotten their food.
At this point I already knew this is just the service she gives.
When we finally got the right food the steak was cooked incorrectly. We ordered the steak medium but it was rare.
At the end of our dinner it seems like the manager caught on and came to ask how everything was.
My husband responded saying the food was good but the service was not good. Manager said nothing and just took the feedback while taking the plates back.
A few minutes later the waitress we had came back and offered us a free dessert but we said no thank you that we wanted our bill so we could pay and head out.
The manager then steps in with the bill and a dessert that we had already declined to apologize but at this point it was too little too late.
Would come back another time in hopes of having a different server.
