If this is what I think it is, the little corner store with the restaurant in back, good for them. Excellent Guatemalan food!

Sounds like you are right. Best tortilla I have ever had.

This place is some tasty business.

[pickles]

It's great - happy to see they'll be expanding.

[Pete]

This place has been operating as a little store with a cafeteria-style restaurant in the back, but they are remodeling to become a pure restaurant and should be close to finished if they aren't already.

This is at 1800 NW 16th, at the far west end of the Plaza District.

The food gets generally great reviews.

Have eaten there only once but the Pesoli I had was really good. Also, they serve the best tortillas I have ever had.

I need to go give it a try... I haven't had any Guatemalen food since Cocina Guatelinda closed.

[Pete]

They make their own tortillas and are quite reasonable, so those two things alone are good reasons to visit.

The hand made tortillas are what I miss about Cocina Guatelinda.... They were made from corn masa but they were thicker than what you get from the Okie Mex places and really soaked up some sauce or broth.

great food. . .and, unless the weather is nasty, close enough to walk to Lyric!!

Looks like this place is getting ready to reopen and will now be called Chiltepes:

I've only ate there two or three times but it was always very good. Not sure what I had. More of a "I point and they plate" kind of ordering system when I was there.

[Pete]

On Facebook they just announced they are closing soon and won't open again until February so they can complete their interior renovations.

Just heard their re-opening has been delayed until April 11th.

Also, they will add some Mexican items to their menu.

Another great dining option on the Plaza. I also got an e-mail from a real estate agent touting Classen-Ten-Penn. who would have thought that possible a few years ago?

[Pete]

Looks like they are getting very close to re-opening.

Just posted some photos of their new menu items on their FB page:

At the state of the Plaza meeting a few weeks ago, the owner said they were shooting for a mid-April opening, but it seems like the renovations are going a lot faster than they originally thought it would. I am excited to get down there and try some Guatemalan food.

[trousers]

I hope they keep hand making the tortillas the way they used to. May be difficult with the demand they will surely have once they open.

¡Muy auténtico!

[Urbanized]

Don't try talkin back to me in Spanish. I have no idea what I even typed there.

[Pete]

They just posted they will reopen on May 9th.

They have a new website with complete menu:

They have a new website with complete menu:

OMG, that looks very interesting and it's a huge selection. It's interesting that they decided not to put prices on the website. Maybe that will come later.

[Roger S]

I saw papusas on the menu and that's all that mattered to me.... Haven't had any since Cocina Guatelinda closed their doors.
