Make this your coffee-and-a-bite option rather than a full brunch commitment. Latin American flavors, pastries, tamales, and sandwiches give friends different ways to order. Weekends can fill up quickly; use the to-go counter if seats are scarce.

Mix sweet and savory empanadas with friends, from shrimp to guava and cheese. The listed price range is $4-$8; confirm current menu and sauce prices before ordering. These hand-held pastries are an easy pick when you want a smaller food stop.

For a bigger appetite, consider the generous portions and broad South Asian menu, including biryanis, crispy okra, and cauliflower manchurian. Friends can compare dishes or share if it suits them; check current prices rather than assuming a fixed group deal.
