The food is good but they “open at 11:15”. I wish they had more accurate hours of operation.

I find myself coming here every weekend for the mango smoothie (mangonada). This is one of my favorite places to get a mangonada, it has the right amount of ingredients and not overwhelming with extra stuff like other places. My daughter loves the tiny paletas and they are the perfect size for a toddler!

A locally run shop that sells traditional Latino deserts such as fresas con crema or licuados (milk shakes). Highly frequented by the community, this shop will allow you to taste delicious flavors of different ice creams or raspados (snocones). However, because of the culture of this place, it helps to speak Spanish or have some grasp. Another reservation is that it is essentially a fast food in that you take food to go. My in-laws love it and so will you!

Only downside is 90% of times you go, they will be super busy! But in this case, it shows how good their snacks are! Worth the wait!
