Their coffee is consistently excellent as well. ”
“ Do not pass over this place! It's a little tucked away and hard to find if you haven't been before in the corner of its plaza, but it is absolutely spectacular! Hearty, rich South American cuisine which we don't get enough of here in Canada. Not like Mexican food, try a new culture! Portions are huge and very filling, excellent value. Lots of meat on meals which include it. Coffee is heavenly. Well crafted and very balanced. No sugar required in my latte! The decor is a little simple but it's always perfectly clean. I like a place that concentrates on its food. Delicious homemade South American desserts. Come for the coffee and stay for the food! Also the staff is very friendly and love to share suggestions on what to order. Very passionate about their food. ”
“ What a gem in Newmarket! We had arepa de pabellon and chicken and avocado, both very flavourful and fresh. We also had empanadas and tres leches cake, all superb. Service is great and friendly. ”
“ So glad for the recommendation here from a friend. The empanadas are wonderful, it’ll be dangerous to just pop by and just get them for an inexpensive snack. The arepas are well awesome, flavourful and filling. Definitely coming back! ”
“ Fantastic experience here. I went with some co-workers, 2 of which are latin and they even said the food is authentic. I had the pabellon criollo, the beans were great and the plantain was tasty. I also had to try a carne mechada arepa, and the beef was even juicier on this. I think arepas are the way to go here. The atmosphere was also very clean, above average, not to mention the great service. I will have to return to try another arepa. ”
“ Amazing home style Latin American food and delicious Colombian coffee! Finally a place with great coffee! ”
“ First time here. Didn't know what I wanted. I was recommended the empanadas and they were delicious especially with the house hot sauce. ”
