| - This review is based on the overall experience. Food only would be a 4/5.
We went on the first weekend it was open, crazy line-up and it took almost 30 minutes to get our food.. which wasn't horrible had it not been for the severe lack of ventilation inside. I do hope they'd gotten it fixed since then. We smelled like smoke for the entire day, and it was hard to breathe in there.
Service was friendly, the girl at the counter did a wonderful job, she did not rush and made friendly chats. I thought that was smart to even out the snaking line.
We got the Pepito which was a steak torta, with guac and panella cheese. My favourite is the crusty bread, which eventually got soggy but still held up the ingredients pretty well. Perhaps, I found Panella cheese to be too heavy and chewy for my liking but it's personal preference. Overall, a solid sandwich.
My favourite however is the Esquites (!! my mouth is watering just thinking about it).. which is a bowl of stewed corn. It was creamy, soupy, sweet and savoury at the same time. I personally am a huge fan of anything corn and creamy.
I would skip the house made chips, nothing really special and some have gone stale probably from sitting out too long.
I would go back to try their breakfast torta one day.. hopefully the line isn't so crazy and ventilation fixed!
