La comida tenía buen sabor pero me salió un cabello y lo único que me ofrecieron fue cambiarme la ensalada que era solo hojas de arugula. Les recomiendo tener cuidado con eso

This place is an absolute delight! The music & musical decor are fun & exciting! The empanadas are delicious & served with both avocado & hot sauces! A delicious & delectable appetizer. I had the pulled pork arepa! It was wonderful with so many different flavors & textures! Everything is gluten free! You will be in heaven if you have celiac disease!

Quite possibly your best option if you see gluten free! Gluten free everything offered here. & it is mostly naturally gluten free, not gluten free substitutes. I suggest getting the plate.
