I LOVE this place. Absolutely amazing empanadas, wonderful service, and such a cute setting. It's a tiny place, but it's so unique. Aside from the empanadas, there is a very wide selection of drinks and desserts. I had the Spanish latte once and it's just so good. I try to come here as often as I can!

I love this place. The setting, the scenery, the style, the variety of products they have on display, and the ambiance. The outdoor patio, the food, the treats and coffee. It's all amazing. You'll want to come back here! They have flavorful bites to eat, sweet things, a wonderful Spanish influence to the place shows.

I ordered a Java Mocha cold drink and banana bread toast online. They offered 10% off your first online order. My drink was perfect, the food was delicious. The atmosphere and staff are great. I can't wait to go back. I have no idea how long they've been open, but it's definitely a hidden gem in Peoria.

Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by Raam, the owner of this location, along with a few other partners whose names I unfortunately can’t recall at the moment, but they were all a pleasure to talk to. Raam and his team provided excellent customer service, creating a welcoming atmosphere and an overall experience that was truly memorable. When I asked what the most popular items on the menu were, Raam offered several recommendations. I decided to trust his suggestions and was delighted by the rich, flavorful taste of the pollo empanada. I also tried the Riverfront Sunset alcoholic beverage, which was just as enjoyable. While waiting for our order, I learned that the business originated in Bolivia and that their high-quality, premium coffee beans are imported from Italy and Colombia, such a great touch that reflects their commitment to quality. Once our order was ready, we entered the dining area, and to my surprise, it felt like discovering a hidden coffee shop with a secret entrance. The back lounge is absolutely captivating and has such a cozy, charming vibe. I highly recommend this spot to anyone who loves a great coffee shop experience, definitely check it out for yourself!
