Driven by many times but finally stopped by to try this restaurant. Now I’m wondering what took me so long to get over here. Everything we ordered was delicious! Many vegetarian and vegan options, which is nice. Their empanadas, pupusas, tostones, and tamales were excellent. I especially loved their lentil soup. The fresh mango juice was incredible. 10/10, will definitely be returning.

This place is always fantastic. Great value and I’ve truly never had anything here that I didn’t like. I really enjoy their enchiladas, tamales, and their fried plantains are a must-try. Some of the best guacamole I’ve ever had as well.

Where they really shine is the simplicity and freshness of their food. If you want something that feels both healthy and filling (a tough balance to achieve) then this is your place.

I've been there four times. The last time I was there they didn't get my order right and due to the language barrier (I'm assuming) they couldn't understand where they went wrong. I gave up and didn't worry about it. But my food tasted burnt and I just didn't have a desire to return. Other than that, the first three visits were nice.
