★★★★☆ 4.0 Greg Allen · Jun 2024

Feel like the atmosphere can't be beat! Really cool place to go! Food was really good as well so that was a plus! I had the curry and it was really good but probably not quite as flavorful as other currys I've had but still was great! The little salad that came with every meal was really good as well! Fun little place to come eat if you are looking for something fun to try!

★★★★★ 5.0 Daniel Lucas · Jul 2023

Food was good, but kitchen was a bit slow even with relatively few customers. Luckily the atmosphere was good even without the live band so it was not a terrible wait. Just maybe plan on enjoying the courtyard for a bit and don't get stressed if food takes a while. It's worth it. Our server was Colombian and really great. We agreed there should be a Colombian meal as a special. Maybe on Mondays? He described a great meal that's his favorite that should fit right in on the menu! :)

Such a hidden gem! We loved it here, especially the Saturday jazz live… food is good, portions may not be enough for some. Nice atmosphere and good service. We will be back :)

Very nice spot. We got the beef empanadas and they came out nice and fresh. They tasted pretty good. They only have outdoor seating and there’s parking right in front of the shop. The place is very clean and the person taking our orders was wiping down the paying pot after we touched it so we were comfortable using our hands to eat. The empanadas are about $5 each. Nice spot, would go back again. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick snack.

★★★★★ 5.0 Catherine Moss · Jun 2024

The food was flavorful and delicious, and the service was friendly. We ordered the empanada sampler platter and loved the chimichurri and chimi mayo we're a hit with all of us. We loved sitting in the outdoor space for our meal. The art, music, and plants all around were great. We LOVED the vibe.
