About

Bocadillo specializes in authentic Venezuelan cuisine defined by signature arepas and cachapas prepared with traditional corn dough. These griddle-cooked staples serve as the primary vessel for diverse fillings ranging from slow-cooked shredded beef to salty white cheeses and savory black beans. The menu emphasizes structural simplicity and bold tropical flavors inherent to Latin American culinary traditions. Patrons encounter a casual environment where the focus remains strictly on the technical preparation of grilled sandwiches and plantain-based sides. Each plate prioritizes the interplay between crisp textures and rich, savory ingredients characteristic of coastal Venezuelan street food. The establishment maintains a streamlined approach to service, ensuring that every order highlights high-quality proteins paired with fresh avocado or spicy garlic sauces. This culinary destination preserves the essence of genuine South American comfort food through focused preparation.

The place has changed location! The new place is awesome! more space & same tasty food! I highly recommend their cheese empanadas ! if you're up for a comfort food with sort of new classy ambiance, it's the place to go.

J'adore sa nourriture. Mais... Le samedi 25 janvier 2025 vers 17h30. J'étais là avec ma famille & malheureusement je trouve le restaurant sale , mauvais odeurs. En plus au fond il y avait une madame entrain de changer la couche à son enfant en plen restaurant . Vraiment mauvais expérience pour nous & pour un autre couple qu'était là. C'est vraiment différant un resto décontractée au un placé négligent. Vraiment déçu.

Tried the Arepa Pabellon, the platain sadly was not sweet & the avocado has a mushy texture. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy it as expected. Yuca was absolutely delicious & the green sauce super good!

I had La Llanera with potato fries. The tender, fatty, flavourful beef & homemade cheese paired so well with the fresh avocado & tomato in the corn bread were delicious. I highly recommend trying. The fries we ordered were a little small for the basket, but the basket was quite large, & I thought that was still good value. Service was personable, friendly & attentive. Atmosphere was missing a certain something in my opinion, but no real complaints. This would be my go-to lunch place every week if the it wasn't 18$ per small-medium hamburger sized portion.

Bocadillo has recently expanded, but the ambiance remains lovely, as it was before. Good food & excellent entertainment (Latin).

The Arepas were very flavorful & filling, especially the ones with fresh cheese. Good recommendations from the staff & friendly service too.
