What our guests are saying
Wonderful spot with delicious, high-quality Latin food! We sat right by the river stunning view and a calm, pleasant atmosphere. The food was light, flavorful, and very well-prepared. The place is extremely clean, organized, and welcoming. A perfect experience we’ll definitely be back!

Wow, what a great spot! Very unique, beautiful presentation and flavors. We had coffee and empanadas but those were just a sampling of thier full menu. They had delicious coffee, served in cute clear cans. Perfect location on the river next to the train tracks, by a stage, etc. They said there is a summer farmer's market and other events here. They had a full bar menu as well, with cocktails, beer, wine as well a food menu. The spinach and cheese empanada was good, but the beef was stellar. Sweet potato dough filled with big chunks of perfectly seasoned beef and served with a delightful sauce. Do not miss this spot if you are looking for a pick me up coffee or a drink and relaxation. Top notch service from the two gentlemen who helped us.

What a super cool place to go eat or drink at! I didn’t know this was here and I’m super glad I found it. The paninis and coffees were awesome, and the desert options were like none other. Pricing is fair for the quality of food. I will definitely be back to try the rest of their menu.
