Empanadas are gas at this spot
The empanadas, are amazing! Flavorful, each very diferrent than the other, crispy, and the sauces!! They give you different kind of dipping sauces too, and super affordable. I think it's a hidden gem! Can't wait to come back! They offer nice cold beer, and wine too

The food at this spot inside the galleria 7 market is great! No fuzz easy to choose from the menu as they have a big screen with pictures and descriptions of tge items. The empanadas are amazingly fresh! Crispy, juicy and unique, tge rice and beans is very good too. I had the flan for the sweet spot and i think it's the best i have had. You can tell it's not geberic food. They brought the food to my table though it was self service. And their mango lemonade is perfectly refreshing to wash it all down.

The food was not edible. I waited 40 minutes , I thought we were getting fresh food ,so i didnt complain about the wait . We got hard, dry old food. The empanadas were the worst I ever had. The tostones were so overcooked, it was impossible to eat. The chicken was so dry and old, you couldn't chew it.

The service is excellent, especially from the young man who came directly from Bolivia. And what can I say about their empanadas! They're delicious, truly exquisite. They cook with a homemade flavor that's delightful, and their sauces… oh my goodness, a delight! Don't miss their arepas and lunch specials. It's a restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and very friendly staff.

I ordered dessert from here as I wanted to try and banana Nutella empanadas and they were horrible. They put them in the dryer and left them in there for over 10 minutes. They were overly fried and so hard. Very dark. There were no other customers waiting so they weren’t busy. Just careless.

The restaurant is in a very high traffic food court, with numerous other restaurants to choose from. Peruvian food is in my top five favorites, however, I was a little disappointed with the overall quality of the food. The empanada was soggy and appeared to have been warmed up. Definitely not fresh. Ordered the rotisserie chicken with rice, beans and plantains. The chicken was tough on the outside and dry on the inside. The plantains were good, the beans were good, and the rice just OK. Excellent sauces! The chimichurri and white sauce they have was the best thing that I ate. I would have definitely given everything a higher review, Had the food been cooked to order/fresh. The empanada by far was the most disappointing thing I ordered.

Cute stall in a food hall. Arrived at 6pm on a weekday, employees were ready to leave. The cashier disappeared for a full 5 minutes before I was able to order. The rice was ok, not too much flavor. The empanadas were good. Tried the spinach empanada and it was good.

The receptionist hung up on me twice when I'm just wondering if they have any entrees with marinated proteins. I have severe health issues so I need to have some idea of what they have that I can tolerate.

Very reasonable price for really good food. I got a lunch special. I'm looking forward to trying more from the menu.
Parking: Location was inside with other food counters. I got a little lost looking, since it was my first time. My GPS took me just a smidgen away from the door.
