We found this little gem on a road trip. From the moment we walked in, it felt like we were visiting our family. (I'm guessing it was) Carmen greeted us with a smile, and immediately came over to tell us what the items on the menu were. She was really sweet.
The portions were satisfying, and the food delicious. We left with full, happy bellies.
As we were sitting down, several other groups came in, seemed like we got there just in time to get full attention. I'd recommend if you're ever in the area.

Empanadas to die for. Great customer service. Outside you probably wouldn't want to give it a shot but you get inside to a completely different atmosphere. I want to take another trip out that way just to stop here again!

This place is so good my boyfriend is telling me I need to do Harrisburg as my autumn marathon again just so we can eat here! The appetizers with the dipping sauces were insane, namely the croquetas and the quipe, but the empanadas were also AMAZING. The staff are super friendly and will provide an English menu if needed. We ate the food so fast I didn't even think to get a picture.

Le Tengo que dar 3 estrellas porque ellos nunca cojen El telefono cuando uno llama y otra cosa es que El horario seria mejor mientras mar tarde mejor. I'm giving them 3 stars because they never pick up the phone. I wish they can change their schedule. But the food is amazing and good prices.

Parking: The parking is good. Difference business.

I tried this place based on some of the reviews. As many mentioned, the place was clean and orderly, service was basic and food is okay. I would never recommend the beef steak for 18.99 as it looks like shredded steak-ums and very very dry and thin pieces as shown in the photo. They also charged me a processing fee when I paid cash… So make sure you check your receipts. As much as I would have loved to give a 5 star rating, I have to be honest to those looking to visit this restaurant.
