Description




Alongside the main draw, the menu features casual Colombian eats, though some visitors warn of small portions on non-empanada orders. The accompanying sauce adds a distinct kick. While long-time regulars keep returning for the food, the experience can be set back by basic customer service, with cashiers occasionally described as bad-tempered. The fillings can also be inconsistent, including chicken empanadas that sometimes arrive with very little meat.
