Review


Ordered takeout from here for the first time last night. The only gluten containing item on the menu is the sandwich bread, and even though they have GF bread they use the contaminated grill for that and all the sandwich meats, so basically the sandwiches aren’t safe. Everything else was though, as far as I know.

I had: - the beef brisket plate with brown rice and beans (9/10) - both types of plantains (5/10- maduros were over-cooked, tostones were heavy and bland) - two empanadas they use GF dough and have a dedicated fryer (8/10 for the guava and cheese, 2/10 for ham and cheese) - the flan (10/10 for flan but flan is pretty basic)

Not at the top of my list to dine at again ASAP but also a solid meal and no glutening as far as I can tell. Just remember... THE SANDWICHES ARE CROSS CONTAMINATED even on GF bread.
