Elotés Changes Name to Woodfired Cantina After Protests and Petition | Eater Twin Cities

"Built by Mexican immigrants Tomás and Maria Silva, this Mexican market, bakery, catering operation, and restaurant has been selling elotes and other family-recipe dishes since 1979, back when it was next to impossible to find fresh tortillas in St. Paul; the smell of charred husks and sweet corn is indelibly linked with this market. Their daughter Milissa Diaz, part of the next generation of owners, came to Keg and Case with Mexican hot chocolate, tamales, and cookies to support protestors and said she hopes the community keeps the conversation going about cultural culinary appropriation." - Joy Summers

A beloved Frog Hollow gathering place where Latin American groceries meet counter-service kitchens—Colombian, Peruvian, Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Mexican—praised by local guides for affordability and flavor.

It's a great place if you want to do some grocery shopping or if you want to get a bite to eat from one of their restaurants. Definitely recommend.

Everyone there are so polite, cheerful with beautiful smiles and there courtesy is out of this world! The different dishes of homemade cooking of all Spanish countries makes you just want to sit and taste a little of everything. The portions they serve ; can be a meal for two. Must try the delicious flavors of homemade juices!! Very very pleased. Deffinantly will return this Thursday. Please tip them ; they highly deserve them!! Maribel

Buying meats here it's like going to the garbage and grab it from there. It has happened in 3 occasions. the only nice person in this place is the lady in the meat department. The rest look like they got attitude. I wouldn't spend a dime any longer in this place. I rather go to bravos or ctown. Will never step in here again.

What a disappointment! I usually come here to buy my groceries and I love it! I can find everything that I need. I usually come during the weekend so I didn’t have the chance to try the Mexican Restaurant which I have been craving since I found the market. I came today(Monday) and I wish I should have never tried it. My husband ordered tacos al pastor. I don’t know from what part of Mexico the cook is but those were not made of al pastor, no pineapple, no taste and a weird smell was coming out of them. I ordered chicken flautas and the chicken was so dry and had a very bad flavor almost made me think the chicken was bad. Plus, the waitress/cashier was so rude from the beginning, my husband doesn’t speak Spanish but wherever Hispanic stores I take him people is nice to him and at least try to understand what he is saying. This lady just ignored him and waited until I came and told her what we needed. I should have left as soon as I saw the waitress heating up my rice in the microwave. Very sad to have had spent my money in something that wasn’t enjoyable at all. That’s a picture of the leftovers which I hope my dogs can eat.

A very lovely and well-stocked Spanish Latin and South American Supermarket with several small restaurant shops serving fresh original hot food at great prices.

Great place for Latin American food either to buy at the store or eat at the diners. The place I go to is Dominican food restaurant that serves huge portions of food. Easily share one plate between two people.
