    Empanadas, All The Way. Don’t waste your time with the Cuban sandwich or anything else on the menu. Get all empanadas, and you’ll be set. They are deep-fried and flaky...the greatest I’ve ever had 👑

    The beef empanada (picadillo) and the sauce that comes with it is amazing. Love the flaky crust. Highly recommend the guava & cheese pastelitos as well.

    I can't say enough good things about this place. Try the Juanito to drink and the passion fruit tea cake.

    Delicious veggie Cuban sandwich, feels a little healthier than the traditional ham and cheese version. Corn empanadas also nice.

    Love the veggie Cuban and the avocado salad. Would eat the tres leches and key lime pie in a jar every day 🧁

    Close up of the guava pastelito. The guava filling inside is amazing.

    Love the coffee here, plus it has lovely little outdoor patios in front and upstairs.

    The mango iced tea is amazing. No idea how they make it, but the mango flavor is is so refreshing.

    Not the service! Sadly unattentive and unwelcoming. Drink was not even average.
