A low key restaurant that serves authentic food. We had vegetarian and cheese empanadas, along with humita. The vegetable empanadas were very fresh tasting and were a refreshing complement to the cheese empanadas, which were delicious as well. I had the humita for the first time and really liked the flavour.
The menu was available for take out only when we visited. Since my friend was vegetarian, we decided on the vegetable empanada and humita. Both were too light on flavor. Despite being made of ground corn, the humita did not taste enough of the star ingredient (if I'm being generous, some of that could be because I'm used to the flavorful sweetness of Jersey corn, a characteristic that wasn't present in this item). The empanada was hefty and the dough was tasty,...
Compared to the empanadas I’ve had in Chile, these are pretty good, I’d rate them (by comparison) a 7/10. They need to figure out how to reheat these properly though. Middle of the beef wasn’t hot but the pastry was very. Worth trying but judging by the review pictures I also think they are raising their prices too often.
