The best empanadas I've had. If you get them while they're still warm, they are amazing. I'm not a fan of conches, but from here I don't mind them. There's so much to try, and the prices are very good. Staff is very friendly.

Excellent conchas and good orejas, even at 6pm. I am looking forward to trying their apple fritters next time. Thought they were out of conchas but they had trays of them in the kitchen. Soft and fluffy, so good!
