    The empanadas are really really small for the price you pay. But are delicious. Also the waiters are very lost and the service is slow.

    Great decor, haphazard service. Could fast become unpleasant when packed with the dregs of what Williamsburg has become.

    Seating area around fireplace is very cozy. Food wasn't that great. Chicken dish was good. But burger and ribs aren't.

    30 minutes after ordering, my meal hadn't arrived. Service is bad during brunch. Too many other good spots in the area to deal with it.
