Salteñas have a subtly sweet, tender shell that encases a rich, savory stew filled with meltingly soft potatoes, olives, egg, Andean spices, and, if you ordered it, chicken or beef. First, carefully bite off the top. (It’s okay to nibble for this step if it seems hot.) With the top off, you can start slurping out the broth and gradually eat your way through the pastry down to the more substantial parts of the stew. the subtle sweetness of the pasty and the strong flavors of the savory interior, give salteñas an excellent balance of flavors.

We are excited for Salteñas Chasqui to have their own place. Since moving back from Bolivia, we’ve missed the cuisine. This hit the spot! ♥️💛💚
-Matti V.
I really enjoyed it. We went twice; the salteñas were delicious. We also tried empanadas, peanut soup, silpancho, and mocochinchi (kind of like dried peach tea, but cold)—very tasty. The owners were very kind and welcoming! I wouldn't hesitate to go back when I'm in Tampa! The salteñas are great. The peanut soup brought back childhood memories! The silpancho was really good too. I will definitely stop by again when visiting Tampa.

This is our first time in this place, and it won't be our last. The restaurant is inside the Marathon Gas Station. Their award winning Salteñas are simply great! The preparation, the flavors, and the quality of their ingredients makes all the difference. Cimal and Jimena welcomed us like family. We totally loved this place, and definitely recommend it. If you want to experience authentic Bolivian cuisine, just go and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

The service was top-notch; I felt right at home even though I was away from my beloved Bolivia. Excellent Bolivian cuisine—a delicious and unique way to try something different.
