You'll find home goods and decor, jewelry, accessories, clothes and little gifts. Prices are very high. There's a small little cafe/bakery when you walk in offering espresso, coffee, and tea."
Interested? Mrs. Mandolin is open from noon–8 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday and from noon–6 p.m. on Sunday. (It's closed Monday.)

As far as pepitos go, you'll find the Pepito Mixto (tenderloin and chicken, plus bacon, Pecorino cheese and your choice of sauce) and the Pepito Mar y Tierra (prawns and tenderloin with garlic, plus your choice of sauce). Also on the menu are hot dogs, hamburgers, salads and more.
With a five-star rating out of seven reviews on Yelp thus far, customers have been leaving rave reviews.
Yelper Kenny D. said, "Great spot for late-night snacking after hitting the clubs and bars. Open late and has just the right foods to make you happy! Hot dogs, burgers and specialty flatbreads with a Colombian/Spanish twist. The food truck is parked in the area of CrossFit Wynwood, so it's easy to pull over to grab food to-go or to sit and eat."
Brad C. added, "This place has amazing food! Great service too! Reasonable pricing and it's cooked to order, which is also awesome!"
Pepiteria 13 has yet to post its hours online.

Gonzalo R., who was among the first to review the new burger place on July 25, wrote, "What was missing in the heart of Wynwood: a good quality, juicy burger! The meat is perfect — so good, in fact, that I had two! The fries are crunchy and the bread is fresh and tasty."
Megan G. noted, "Delicious burger joint! Burger was great and sweet potato fries were just as delicious. Service was very welcoming, polite, suggested good choices and was quick with everything."
