Review by Vicente

Amara Cafe & Restaurant in Pasadena offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere that draws you in immediately. I savored the empanadas - filled to perfection - alongside a delightful beef Pabellón arepa. Each bite was an explosion of flavors, and the plantains accompanying it were caramelized just right.

The iced hot chocolate is a must-try; it's wonderfully rich and comforting. Plus, the friendly service made the experience even better. It can get busy, but the bustling vibe adds to its charm. Definitely stop by for a taste... ☕
