★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Nancy Jimenez · Jan 2026

I am very disappointed. On my way home from a long meeting yesterday I decided to stop by to buy two empanadas. The meat inside of the empanadas was rotten and tasted sour. I asked the lady behind the counter if they were fresh and she told me yes. So she lied. Be ware buying anything from this place. Food is not fresh and you could get very sick. Also the place doesn’t have proper ventilation. It smells like burnt oil as you walk in. My clothes and hair smells like grease and I was in there for just a few minutes. I don’t think they have a permit to fry food because the place is not ventilated for it.

I went in there excited to support a new business and was not welcomed the way I would expected a new business to run… The two girls where in the back and once they finally acknowledged me there was no hi or hello they just stared at me. I proceeded to look at what there was around and still no ¿How can I help you?. I got an empanada it was good but right before I paid I asked the girl behind the register if she had added a sauce to my bag and she nodded (that was about as interactive as the cashier got) , when I got home excited to eat my empanada there was no sauce in sight. I also purchased the pan de bono “cheese bread” it was not good at all it was hard and very salty mind you I’m 3 ish minutes from the place so it could not gave gotten the way it did in that little time. I never fi

Every bite was filled with so much flavor! The owner was friendly, helpful, and working as fast as she could! We will definitely be back!

My boyfriend is Colombian and we like to check out Colombian cafes/bakeries in the area - we really liked it here! The woman who helped us (who seemed like the owner) let us know that the pasteles gloria are baked, not fried. We also noticed that the pandebonos didn’t taste as greasy as some others that we’ve had, and you can really taste the cheese. I got the vanilla latte and it was delicious! There’s a jar of sugar with a cute wooden spoon on the table if you want to add any more sugar to your drink. My boyfriend and I both felt like we were in a small cafe in Colombia - we loved it! Would definitely return.
