During a cold turn recently I found myself shivering as the winds under the seven line sliced through my coat and layers. I quickly set out to find a cafe to warm my bones and restore myself before carrying on. I stumbled across The Pequeno Coffee Shop, which bills itself as an Ecuatorian cafe and restaurant. The decor is breathtaking with burnt inlay woodpaneling depicting animals and scenes from nature all over. There is ample seating room and the staff spoke both Spanish and English. I tried to the hot cocoa, which came unsweetened and I could add sugar to taste--I like not having the choice made for me, so this was a big plus. I also sampled their beef empanada, a pocket made with a yucca (cassava) dough and seasoned pulled beef inside. It was delectable, tasted of garlic and cumin, while standing up to the fresh salsa served along with it. The slice of orange added to my plate tied my hot cocoa to my empanada so well I felt like I had a full meal. Despite this feeling, I looked with great envy at the fragrant and sizzling platters of meat, vegetables and other foods served to neighboring tables. I will definitely return there to make it a frequent stop.

The workers in that place are rude as ever. I just wanted to buy a morocho and an empanada, but the workers decided to ignore me and go straight to other customers who came right after me. I was just standing there waiting for them to take my order, but they still ignored my presence (Mind you I was right in front of the 2 ladies who were working there) and served more customers who came after me. Not pleased whatsoever

Great place for a bite to eat. I love all kinds of food, but definitely all kinds of Spanish food. The prices are it cheap but they are not expensive either. You get a good portion of food and it taste great. The staff are friendly, but Obviously Spanish the primary language spoken, though everyone I have spoken to also speaks English. Would dine again.

We were only there for a night-cap and snack, but we loved it. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a wide variety of menu options!! Recommend: The Tamal was a great snack, but the Tiramisu and House Sangria really brought it home :-)

The service wasnt really great. The waiter took his lunch before he can give us our food. The waitress pass by with our food twice. To top it off my seafood soup tasted so blend, the chualafan tasted bad, way to saggy.

They blasted old school regueton on a monday evening to host some type of low budget modeling that was completely inappropriate for the place. A total let down, NEVER coming back!!!
