I love Latin Sandwich Cafe! It is BYOB and the food is terrific. The bread for the chilean style sandwiches is to die for...the owners are lovely and very attentive.

I was there last weekend for dinner and I loved the Lucas sandwitch. I also had an empanada and loved it. Try this place, you will not be disappointed!

I went with a Chilean friend of mine who was studying in chicago, and he LOVED IT. The empanadas were delicious and he was in heaven while eating them. The woman who owned the place and served us was so sweet. Real down home feeling. I loved it and have a become a regular.

This is a great place. Being from Chile, it's nice to have a place to find the foods I grew up with. I only wish they were closer to where I live. Always save room for dessert!

I am from Chile and this restaurant is the closest to it. The empanadas are the best, total mil hojas, sopa de mariscos, etc. etc. I loved it and will keep going.

We went last week and we were surprised for the real Chilean flavors. It is a real Chilean food. The service can be improved, however the warm environment of Hispanic and casual atmosphere worth to rate, this small restaurant, with 4 stars.
Additionally, we bought unique pastry and desserts. I recommend ?BRAZO DE REINA? a Roll Cake stuffed with goat's milk caramel and Nuts or Coconuts finishing. Delicious!!!!!

They have very good chilean home made food. It's an excellent value and it has a friendly atmosphere. Must try empanadas (meat or cheese) with Pebre (mix of tomato, cilantro, onion)
And don't forget the dessert (Torta mil hojas).
Bring your chilean wine bottle to complement a perfect meal and enjoy.

Great (and only) place to have Chilean food. I've become a regular!! For those of you that haven't tried "empanadas" ... that is a must have. I also suggest "pastel de choclo" or "bistec a lo pobre". For desert ask for a "Thousand layer cake" ... you'll thank me for it. Very good value for your $ in a friendly informal environment.
