Description

Beyond the signature pork belly, which balances a crispy outer crunch with a tender, juicy interior, the kitchen serves up outstanding empanadas and golden tostones. The space itself is quite small, but the playful, pigtastic decor and friendly staff create a welcoming vibe, with servers actively suggesting bites to match your tastes. For a broader sample of their fried specialties, visitors often point to the picado platter as a highlight. It is a straightforward, neighborhood destination where the attentive service and freshly fried comfort food easily make up for the limited elbow room.
