Reviews
Right off the bat, the seating process was confusing. When we walked in, it wasn’t clear if there was a hostess, a greeter, or if we were supposed to seat ourselves. We waited for a bit, no one came over, so we eventually went up to the counter. When we tried to order, we were told it would be dine-in and to go sit down, and that someone would be right with us. It just felt a little disorganized — some clearer direction when you walk in would help a lot.
Service overall was pretty mid and lacked attentiveness. The food itself was okay, but one of the empanadas was very over-fried. It honestly felt like it may have been sitting out and then refried, because it was extremely tough ; so much so that I actually cracked part of a tooth on it, which obviously wasn’t great.
We did leave a cash tip at the table, but when I paid with my debit card at the counter and didn’t leave an additional tip on the screen, the cashier gave me a strange look. I’m guessing she didn’t realize we had already tipped, but it still felt awkward.
Overall, the food was decent, but the service and organization left a lot to be desired. With clearer seating instructions and more consistent service, this place could be much better.
We waited 30 MORE MINUTES, and finally got it and left.
The servers and cashier especially has a bit of an attitude and is not very welcoming. I understand it’s busy, everyone in my table works in the food service, and knows the stress of a rush. However, this was absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. Should have just left at that point and not paid or demanded a refund, but we have better morals than that.
The food really is good, and there are great portions…. But this is ridiculous, and I don’t think I will return.
I recommend it with no doubt.
This place is not for the faint of heart or for anyone who is counting calories or on a diet. Either save up your points, drink lo-cal protein shakes for a week to be able to freely enjoy! Or just say to yourself, “bump it!”, and go on and enjoy!
You will need put down a pallet or hang a hammock and take a long nap after eating here. But you will sleep with a smile on your face. Mis respetos ❤️
