“ No entiendo mucho los comentarios negativos. Tremendas empanadas! Llenas de relleno y exquisitas. Se nota que están hechas con amor. Recomiendo especialmente la cubana, para quienes gusten de lo agridulce. Igualmente, cualquiera de las que pedí son exquisitas. Pidan, no se dejen llevar por los comentarios negativos ”
“ Excellent place! These were the best empanadas de horno ive tried in argentina. The owner is also super kind. Highly recommend going for som empanadas ”

“ Great pizza, very tasty and well made. Charming place to have a pizza with friends. ”
“ La mejor pizza de la zona . El pela cuando lo conoces un copado . Si van pidan una fugazeta y una a la cancha (rellena de Muza ) ”
“ Creo que la foto habla por si sola. Realmente una pizza increíble. Que compite con todas las famosas pizzerías de Av. Corrientes. Dos porciones son más que suficiente. La masa espectacular, esponjosa y liviana. La cantidad exacta de mozzarella. Y la salsa con sabor a ajo y albahaca. Me sorprenden algunos malos comentarios. Probablemente ex empleados enojados. Lamentablemente para mi dieta, volveré varias veces. El dueño, Eduardo. Muy cordial. Me contó su historia como pizzero desde 1980, siempre en el barrio. Aclaro, no tengo ningún tipo de relación con la pizzería. Solo el deseo de hacer justicia con este maravilloso producto. ”
