    Delicious, authentic arepas and empanadas! Came here a few times over our stay to snack and they never disappoint. Not only are the items flavourful but what makes their food stand out even more are the sauces they use too! You'll find a lot of people eat right there to add more sauces onto their bites and makes the food taste even better. Great price too!

    This is a great street food experience where you can see the arepas and carimañolas made fresh on the spot. The stall opens at 5pm and 10 minutes in, it started to get busy mainly with locals. We got the arepa with chicken and egg and the carimañolas (yuca fritters stuffed with meat and cheese) which were both delicious. Eat around the cart so you can try the different sauces/salsas with your food.

    Really quick: I do highly recommend this place for a snack or even to get to know local street food! Details: We found this place by chance, we haven't searched for it, instead we wanted to eat cuban, but decided for this place as most locals were eating there. We have tried every single meal they offer and everything was delicious ! Everything is made fresh and in front of you. You can even have a refreshing maracuja juice. This is a must do in Cartagena!

    The food is lovely. Just wanted something quick but couldn't decide on one thing so ordered one of each item. It was only 19k for 7 different foods. All of them being delicious so would highly recommend for a quick and easy bite.

    Delicious street food from a friendly family business! Just inside the Plaza de San Diego you'll see the famous street cart which has been here for over 50 years. Line up with the locals still to try the carimañolas (fried cassava stuffed with meat and vegetables), empanadas. The sensational arepa de huevo is unlike any arepa I've ever tasted, stuffed with egg, meat, chorizo, and/or cheese. What a treat!

😠 I’m disappointed in the service we have been having at crepes and waffles. Extremely slow, rude waitresses, they do not give you attention- plus there was a green worm in our food. Did not take it off our bill

👍 If the servers were only helpful and friendly I would give this restaurant five stars. The servers seem to have an attitude and an air of snootiness. Not acceptable. The food is well presented but it does take a while to get it. My Poblano crepe was quite acceptable. The mushroom crepe was super yum...
