We went to gonza expecting authentic tacos . We got that and more ! The decor is artsy and fun . The menu was a surprise . As we read about the items, we soon discovered elements of Mexican , Puerto Rican , Dominican , Colombian and even some American dishes . If you find this difficult to navigate , the staff will help, though I assure you there is no such thing as a bad dish here

Stayed at the Hampton and desk clerk recommended this place when we asked for a close (walking distance) local place. Chips were fresh and hot, salsa flavorful and smoky. 1800 margarita was strong and well made. Ordered combo of chicken taco and chicken enchilada, with rice and beans. Came out fast, hot and delicious. Server was friendly and efficient. Would definitely eat here again!

This was my first tapas experience. I thought the food was fantastic. They have a nice selection of wines and craft cocktails, and some decent beers. Just know this is a nice, cozy place to go with friends, to have a drink and to taste a variety of gourmet ($$) snacks. While I guess you could purchase enough food to have a full meal, your wallet probably wouldn't want you to.

This small place in a strip mall has great empanadas. My daughter and I have been there twice and will be back.They offer at least a total of 20 different flavors of empanadas. They have vegetarian, meat, specialty and dessert empanadas to choose from. All are $3 except for specialty which are $4.Both my daughters and I got a combination dinner or 2 empanadas, a side and a drink for slightly less than $10. Empanadas we're delicious.Dessert empanadas are out of this world. Tried the cheesecake empanada and it was almost to die forThe restaurant has a small seating area and is relatively plain. You order at counter than they bring your food to where you are sitting.The food is good enough for a rating of 5 but the fact the interior is plain and this is not a full service restaurant without waiters and a chef precludes the higher rating.Recommended highly if you like empanadas.
