My first order! Tried the Fish Tacos and they were good! The rock fish was perfectly cooked with a bit of crunch. A kick of heat and a nice mix of salsa finished off the taco. I am thinking they could have used a fresh lemon wedge on the side, not sure but the taco on the whole was just missing something! Sometimes “less is more”. I’ll definitely go for one of the sandwiches next time! From what I saw the sandwiches were definitely the draw! The local artwork (eggshell) by Carol Hansen was spectacular!

Overall, the food was good. The sandwiches, fried yuca, and potatoes with sauce were delicious. Lots of flavour. Well prepared. However, the French toast was awful. It was undercooked and incredibly soggy. I ordered it for my kids and it was inedible.

Everything was delicious. We tried all the sauces and they were all unique. Sandwich was excellent, Id like to try them all! Soup was also excellent. Not too salty or too rich, just perfect.

Went to Bellingham on a day trip from Vancouver. Ended up getting caught at the border for hours so we were starving by the time we got there. Came across this place on Google and seen a review saying “best chicken sandwich ever”. We were not disappointed. I got the chicken and it truly was the best chicken sandwich. So fresh and the flavours were amazing. Fresh crusty roll, the rotisserie chicken was juicy and overall a great experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. Also banging tunes to bop along to while you wait. Well done guys

Context: I HATE sandwiches. But I absolutely love this place. Vibrant flavors and the food never misses. Goldilocks food. Not too spicy not under flavored.

Wasn’t sure what to expect going here, but the experience was wonderful. Food was delicious, ordering was laid back and easy. This place is a gem and was obviously busy for a reason. Despite that, I was served very quickly and my sandwich was truly amazing. Perfect spot to grab a quick lunch.

Beautiful location and great prices. We ordered the Blackened fish tacos, Butifarra Royal and Yucas. The fish was very fresh and plentiful. The pork had a black peppered pungency that blocked most other flavors. I was hopeful to identify the chimichurri and aji Amarillo flavors but ended up with mayo on everything. The salsa criolla almost saved the fish tacos from more mayo. The Yucas were good but the same mayo sauce was served with it leaving a dry perfectly cooked side dish we were unwilling to dunk.

I’m a little picky, but this place was amazing! The bread the sandwiches are made is crazy good. I’m gonna have to come back up when the bakery is open and buy some for home. Glad I tried it. I had the choripollo sandwich, no tomato, with some of the hot salsa on the side, and a Peruvian lager. Can’t tell you how good it was!
