Franchement !!! J'ai commandé un Arepa avec un accompagnement d'inclus pour le prix qui est plus gros que mon repas! Je n'ai jamais eu un petit Arepa de ma vie.... oui je dis bien de ma vie! Petit comme ma main pour 25$! 😧😣 avec 4 patacones avec une petite sauce verte sorti droit du frigo ! Mon copain lui, un cachapa pour le prix exorbitant de 20$ sans accompagnement ! UN GROS NON! Les Arepa de mon copain fait maison & typiquement Vénézuela sont beaucoup plus goûteux & géant! De même pour les cachapa ! Vraiment, rapport qualité prix, je ne vous le conseille pas! Gardez votre argent ou investissez le ailleurs. Vous allez être déçu ! Du genre :' Juste ça!' Vous allez encore avoir faim en sortant de là, je vous le garantie! Très déçu pour la communauté Vénézuelienne. Vous avez beaucoup à travailler. Grosseur des plats, accompagnements, présentation visuelle etc.... Bonne chance ! Ce restaurant est barré dans ma liste.

I really liked the food because it remembered me from the flavours back home. I really appreciated the service of the waiter Manuel

We came today to pick up one Arepa - Sadly when I arrived home I saw they put Avocados inside (even if I told them to remove it because I'm allergic).
Mistakes happen, & they nailed the customer service after that: they sent me for free a new arepa without avocados, some plantains & a caramel flan (with rhum). EVERYTHING WAS SOOO GOOD ! Thank you so much for everything, I definitely recommend this place !

Excelente experiencia de principio a fin. La comida estaba deliciosa, llena de sabor y muy bien presentada. El servicio fue atento y amable, y la atmósfera súper agradable. Mi única crítica sería la porción; podría ser un poco más generosa para lo rica que estaba la comida.

Waited 1.5 hrs for my sandwich. First they got my order wrong so they said they'll return with the right sandwich.
But then they just forgot entirely while rest of the table finished eating. Had to remind multiple different waiters to finally get an overpriced sandwich.
