Description
This low-key spot focuses on hearty, traditional execution. The empanadas feature a flavorful outer crust packed with tender meat, served with a complementary sauce. Main plates pair seasoned grilled chicken and beans with sweet, charred plantains. Aside from the staples, you can get tostone cups loaded with shrimp, cheese, and sweet plantains. While visitors have mixed opinions on the drinks—with some praising the margaritas and others finding them overly sweet—the generous portions and welcoming service consistently win people over.
