" Definitely loved my experience at Cafe Tola! I ordered a variety of empanadas for takeout, and they accommodated my request with a smile. Everything was packed properly to ensure nothing spilled. Can’t wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Tola's empanadas are packed with flavors! I had the red pork, and it was phenomenal! The drinks are a nice touch too; I tried the mocha, and it complemented the food perfectly. I’d definitely return for the vibe and friendly staff. " (*Curated Review*)

" Was looking forward to brunch here but had a mixed experience. The empanadas were fantastic as always, but I found the breakfast burrito a bit bland. The place was busy, and I felt they were understaffed. I do love their iced horchata latte, though; it was spot on! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch at Cafe Tola last week and it was such a treat! The nachos were excellent, piled high with toppings and guacamole that tasted fresh. The service was friendly but could be a bit slow during peak hours. Absolutely worth it for the food, though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had the best late-night snack at Cafe Tola! The pinto bean and jalapeño empanada was bursting with flavor and spice, while the chorizo burrito was satisfying. The ambience is lively, and I enjoyed the music playing in the background. Highly recommend for snacks or a quick meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" This cafe really knows how to nail the flavors in their empanadas! I had the goat cheese and plantain one, and it was artfully balanced and sweet. Will come again when I’m in town for sure. The staff were super friendly and helpful too! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a combo of three empanadas to go, and they were delicious. I couldn’t choose a favorite—they were all exceptional! If you’re looking for fresh, flavorful options, Cafe Tola should be on your list. I also enjoyed the iced horchata latte; it was wonderfully sweet. " (*Curated Review*)
