I only came here for takeout so I can't say much about the establishment itself, but the place was super clean at the time, and the worker who took our order was welcoming, friendly, and helpful with the menu.
I ordered the chorizo arepa, a pupusa with pork, beans, and cheese, and a pork empanada.
It was my first time trying both an arepa and a pupusa, but I did my homework before coming here and figured they'd be right up my alley. The pupusa was huge and had an irresistable aroma of buttery corn that I was immediately reminded of theater popcorn... in a good way. Add to that the filling, and DON'T forget the slaw and sauce, and it was a party of flavors in my mouth. I seriously couldn't get over the aroma and flavor of the corn. It was like crack. I have yet to try that other, more popular pupuseria in Cleveland to compare, but I do know that I loved this one.
I was less enthused with the arepa. It was simple and good but nothing spectacular. The fries were average at best. I probably wouldn't get it again.
The Colombian empanada comes in a smaller size than other variations. I did not know this. It was about the size of one and a half oreos around, and maybe 2 oreos thick (why aren't oreos an accepted unit of measurement?). Don't underestimate it though. It was packed with savory goodness in a super crispy shell. The potato and pork filling had a bit of cumin or some kind of mild curry flavor in it, and that along with the nice puffy shell actually reminded me of a samosa... in a good way. This was probably my favorite part of the meal. I'm a sucker for emapanadas though.
I'll definitely be back for more. 4.5.
