Description

The menu features sweet and savory fillings accompanied by fresh fruit shakes and a well-regarded green sauce. While the kitchen remains generous with its proteins, visitors note a frequently rotating staff and inconsistent customer service. Standout orders include the salty, juicy pernil empanada alongside the cheesesteak and Hawaiian varieties.
