We got orders wrong. We pre-ordered this morning. One of the Chipotle chicken taco ordered was an additional pork tacos order. Not what we ordered

Burger was incredible, tons of flavor, juicy, hot upon picking up my order. The empanada was crispy and hot! No wait. 10/10!

Curry chicken was very tender. Rice and beans made with basmati rice added enhanced flavor. Cabbage and plantain were well seasoned and perfectly cooked!

Food was great, size was a lot bigger than expected so when I was halfway done with the sandwich the fries were cold. And with a sandwich that big I probably shouldn't have ordered the fries too.

1 empanada for $5 is steep. I thought I was getting 2. Sandwich was delicious but small. Half a sandwich for the price of a whole. Delicious though.
