Very delicious! The empanadas and sauces have amazing flavor. We had the beef, khalua pork and chorizo and they were all great. Also had the skewers which were cooked to order. Dining area has a nice surfer vibe and the music is on point. Customer service was amazing as well, very helpful. Check this place out!

The empanadas are good, depending on what filling you choosesome have great flavor some were lacking flavor completely. Empandadas are kinda big in size, crispy on the outside, but on some the dough was still uncooked in the inside . The prices IMO are a bit too high though, a dozen was over $50. Plenty of parking on plaza lot.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: NoTakeout: Yes

I don't believe I've ever actually eaten inside here - just gotten takeout. But all the food is so so good! The steak skewers, the chicken skewers, the empanadas I got the jalapeno bacon this time and it may be my new favorite. Even their rice is delicious. The prices have gone up quite a bit over the years, but the portions are huge.Food: 5/5

Absolutely loved this place. A definite five star Latin American restaurant in Winnetka, CA. yet it has a cool South Pacific surf vibe. Empanadas galore and the best I’ve ever had. The Bacon Jalapeño empanada was a favorite as well as the Beef Tinga empanada. The signature salad that came with the lunch combo was great too. They also give a generous amount of french fries and signature dipping sauces. The desert empanadas are a must too so don’t forget to take some home. This place came highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. This place is going on my favorites list for sure.

Fantastic food. Johnny really cares about the food, flavors and most importantly, the customers. Easily the tastiest food I've had in the LA area. What a secret surprise! Try the island skewers... omg.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: NoTakeout: Yes

I had the signature salad and was delighted by the abundant raspberries, fresh cut mango and goat cheese all beautifully presented. The chimachurri quality reflected the care put into each dish. The bacon jalapeño empanada was savory, generously proportioned wrapped in a light, perfectly fried, crispy crust. I'll be back to sample more.

They moved into a larger place some time ago and had not been there since the old location. If anything, their food is even better than before, thanks to a larger kitchen and classier digs. You get the strong impression they will be a large multi-location company one day. Very well run, fair prices.

Reason for visiting: lunch with co-workers Date/time of visit: Friday afternoon, lunchtime before a long weekend Parking: shared lot with other businesses, free. Party size: 8 Environment/ambience: chill atmosphere with 80s music and random videos playing on th wall. Theme is beach, surfing, canoes, etc. Black and white color scheme. Sign is black outside so it may be hard to see at night. Restaurant is super clean, so is the restroom. Service: great. Order at the front and food is brought out to you. Food: had #2 combo: steak skewers with fries, one empanada steak, rice instead of salad, and cup of water free. The food was great. The empanada comes with its own sauces: tartar sauce ?, chimmichurri sauce, and a mayo/ketchup dip looks like thousand island. Portions are pretty good. Cost: not bad but expensive for a reg lunch; total for #2 with taxes was ~$17.

The beef tinga, Kailua pig, and chicken al pastor are outstanding. The included sauces make it pop when more.Food: 5/5

The empanadas were excellent. They were baked fresh, fried crispy but not greasy and filled completely. They have many varied selections in each of the pork, beef, chicken or vegetarian. Loved the seasoned fries. The service was friendly and genuinely happy you were there. Price point is affordable. This is a delicious slice of heaven.
