Glad to see this place is still in business. It was delicious when they first opened and they’ve only honed their craft since. We had the cod fish and beef & cheese empanadas to start. They were pretty decently sized with more filling than breading and a perfect golden brown exterior. We each had the grilled arepas: one pabellon and one llanera. This was the perfect amount of flavor, portion, and satisfaction. Will be coming back many times in the future.

Corre, no camines. ¡Nosotras volveremos pronto!
