My wife is Chilean and she calls this place "The Chilean Shop", which says it all really. When locals from that country think of it as their own, you know it is authentic, and this place certainly is. The quality of service is superb, the authenticity is amazing, and the food is pretty decent too. Not amazing food, but decent. And then we get to the price, which is very poor. The lunch menus are over priced and under sized and every time you go there your back pocket hurts. Still nice though but all the Chileans find themselves trying to resist the urge to go there too often because of the price.
A very relaxed and casual café that also operates as a bakery and mini supermarket offering typical - and quite delicious - meals, coffees and sweets as well as Latin American groceries. There is also a good selection of wines, beers and spirits from Latin America. The staff is very friendly and happy to spend time explaining what the various dishes are, where they originate from, etc.
Went there for a birthday event. 15 - 18 of us. Food done on an open wood barbecue at the end of of the cafe. Spend a few moments to go and have a look and talk to the chef. Store sells south american beers etc. Meats were brought to the table in large bowls for sharing, kept hot with ashes from the barbecue, tender and well cooked. Friendly owner and staff. Worth a visit
I love the food ,and the people! The food is like home cooking , delicious, unpretentious and simple. Pia, who served our table was amazing! All the staff were really friendly. And , I love the desserts! The ambiance was so much like a neighbourhood fiesta - just indoors. It is definitely more than a bakery and a deli. Thank Latin Foods for making Mother's day special.

The best place in Melbourne, and probably in Australia, with authentic south american food. The flavor is like to be in home.100% recommended, good food, nice staff and also they sell products from south america that you can't found in a supermarket like "dulce de leche" or "manjar"Best empanadas ever and a perfect costillar.Specials every week are differents.
Latin Foods and Wines is many things. It is many things. It is a grocery store, wine shop, cafe, restaurant and bakery. I came to try out the food as I was completely ignorant of Chilean food. I chose a coffee and a Chacerero (which is a spicy steak sandwich). Both were good and satisfying.
First I had the pulled pork sandwich at lunch time on a Saturday afternoon.
