Specialties
Unlike many restaurants, our bread, cakes, cookies and desserts are made on location. Our empanadas are made by hand, from the dough, to the filling, to its finish; for 24 years, we offer affordable dining for everyone.
Our specialty is Argentine baking and cuisine. While remaining sensitive to California culinary demands, we remain loyal to South American traditions of handmade excellence in cooking and baking. By definition, empanadas are fried, ours are baked for a lighter, cleaner empanada. Tuesdays feature special, Farmer’s Market empanadas. We buy our produce direct from local wholesalers to ensure freshness and quality. Our croissants and mini pastries (faturas) are made with 100% butter. We bake daily and are in production around the clock. Taste dulce de leche alfajores, rolled by dowel and hand cut, flan baked with a mother’s dedication, and café con leche that celebrates Latino abundance. Visit us off Venice, on the shortest Main Street in the country!
History
Established in 1987.
We have been baking on the premises for over 20 years! In June, we celebrate our 29th year!
