This little spot is an absolute gem! First of all, the owners of the restaurant are some of the nicest people. They are so friendly and helpful and clearly put lots of love into this restaurant. The specialty here is the empanadas, which are the best I have ever eaten. They have so many different flavors to try, and all of them are delicious. I highly recommend the Argentine Beef and Cote D’Azur. Both were so complex in flavor and just fabulous. You also have to try the chimichurri. It is the best dip for the empanadas! But that’s not all. To go with the empanadas, you can have the perfect sweet treat—a Belgian waffle. I tried the Liege Waffle, which was so sweet and fluffy. The restaurant is so unique because it exceptionally blends these two diverse cultures into one fusion cuisine! The vibes of this place are just wonderful. The interior is beautifully designed and peaceful. It’s simply the perfect setting to enjoy elegant empanadas and waffles for brunch!

My husband invited me to this place for brunch, and wow. The menu is extensive, and I think there are many options to suit any taste. There are empanadas with meat, without meat, vegan, waffles, crepes, Spanish tapas, smoothies, teas and chais, beer, and wine. The mimosas are delicious, and the empanadas we ate were of: portobello, chicken almonds, cheese with ham, and definitely our favorite was the tikka masala one, ugh I wanted to eat more but it was impossible because the dulce de leche and banana crepe was waiting for me, the coffee is tasty our gastronomic experience was exquisite, we spent the time talking about what we were eating to such a degree that for a moment I felt like I was on a show and I was the food critic ? This place is perfect for being the meeting point with your partner, your friends to drink coffee and chat for a long time because with such nice decoration and tasty food, you feel like staying longer obviously apart from the super customer service they give like Warren who attended us. Definitely, I came back later because I forgot my wallet there on one of the chairs so I took the opportunity to make a takeaway order ? a delicious guava sweet empanada and coffee. Give this pleasant place a chance.

Quaint sit down restaurant. We enjoyed the service and atmosphere. The empanadas were very good. We did not order sauces so not sure they still charge for those items. Entire restaurant can hold approximately 32 so if you have a large party during peak times could be challenging.

good atmosphere, comfortable. Only received service when we asked for it. Had to ask for beverages, had to ask to order. Restaurant only half full to start. Only brought food for 4 out of 5 orders. Didnt realize until we asked where the last order was. Apparently took it to another table. Due to wait, we cancelled the 5th order. Too bad. They did apologize, but didnt realize what happened until we brought it to attention.Sorry, not good.

Most authentic Argentina Chimichurri sauce we have come across. I wanted to try the Argentina beef empanadas but they were sold out so I tried a couple others. All fantastic and they give you the option to buy it cooked or pre-cooked so you can bake it at home. The young women helping me was very polite, professional and informative. Also a cute environment!

We picked up empanadas for breakfast this morning. Everything was top notch delicious. It’s refreshing to eat food that you know is fresh, healthy with no preservatives. I loved the chicken curry and my family loved the Brazilian pastel.

This is a comfy little gem to have coffee with a pastry, be it empanadas, waffles, crepes, alfajores, or a slice of cake, shared with great company. It's a simple menu with wonderful service.I tried the Argentinian beef and the guava with cream cheese empanadas, they're simply decadent! This is our new go-to spot for coffee!
