I had this place bookmarked for a short time as I saw a sign while driving up finch ave.
Finally had the time to stop in w my niece and partner.
Was quite surprised really. Its not just one restaurant. Its located in a little mall type plaza, with a number of Latin markets and restaurants. I was quite disappointing that I didn't know of this place earlier and wanted to try so many different foods. Parking lot was full, but luckily someone was pulling out right in front as we were turning in so we got a spot right away.
There is lots of parking as its a huge lot.
This specific place is located in the back of the mall food court area and has its own restaurant style seating. While the other places are set up cafeteria/food court style.
As soon as we walked in we were greeted w a beautiful aroma of smells and fresh bread yum
The owner came right up and asked how we were if if we needed time w the menu, she knew it was our first time clearly looking like lost dogs lol
My bf was starving but my niece and I just wanted something to munch on.
So he got the chicken sandwich( made w chicken breast) on a fresh in house made burger bun type style bread. The bun was super soft and tasty he inhaled that sandwich lol. It came w lettuce tomatoes cheese and mayo I believe.
We also got 2 empanadas each; seafood, chicken,spinach and beef. They were all great and full of flavor. My niece especially loved the beef and I was obsessed with the seafood one.
We will definitely be back next time we are in the area to try something else.
I also got a pastry called Mantecados. Was really light w some icing sugar on top. Tasted like a sugar cookie but not as sweet.
