Usually, empanadas are doughy and heavy, but these were crispy, light and the filling was delicious, reminded me more of a fried wonton

We’ve heard of this place before and we just never gave it attention.. we finally came to visit one random night and we were blown away with the price and quality of the food. I didn’t even take any pictures of how pretty the food looked! So here is the aftermath of our dinner…. Check it out below! But in all honesty it was amazing and the service was so good! They were the nicest, even though we came an hour before closing. Such sweet staff and Rocio our waitress was amazing with her service! Thank you!

Can we do a 10 star for the atmosphere? Don't get me wrong, service was phenomenal and the food was AMAZING! We got the breaded tilapia, bandeja paisa and maracuya mousse for dessert and i still can't stop thinking about it! BUT THE MUSIC! it's food for the heart and soul! Can't believe I've only found out about this gem! Tbh I wanna keep it a secret, but it's too amazing to not share.
