This place always has good food and flavors, great customer service from staff, also their salsa verde (Garlic Mayo) is the best

It’s a small restaurant but its portions are worth it for the prices ❤️ It was my first time trying “Patacon” and I was not disappointed. It was delicious and the staff were very friendly and polite. I recommend this place if you want to try Venezuelan food 🙂

This place was empty when we got there on a Saturday night, which was a bummer, because the food was good so I hope they stick around! There were only 3-4 tables to sit at so I thought it was pretty weird that the only way to order was through a big touch screen. That aside, our sandwiches were great, a little dry after you ate through all the fillings but they do give you three sauces to help out with that – none of which were very spicy. Service was just fine, but I would still come back. Honestly would prefer to take it to go next time since it’s a pretty messy meal.

The worst place to eat Venezuelan food—completely inauthentic. The atmosphere was nonexistent, and the space was very uncomfortable. The staff was incredibly rude; he even had headphones on while taking our order and was very short with us. This place does not represent Venezuela in any way. The tequeños were frozen, as was most of the food, and everything lacked freshness. The arepas were also frozen and reheated. The only redeeming quality was that they had Frescolita and Malta.

Patacon (Smashed Plantain Sandwich) – A sandwich that is made using patacones, which are flattened and fried green plantains used as bread or buns
I got the Paisa Patacon, stuffed with grilled steak, grilled chorizo, fresh slices of avocado, sunny side up egg, ketchup, and salsa verde, $15.25
If the item description wasn’t convincing enough, this was freakingggg delicious. Apparently you can choose the type of plantain for the sandwich, either a green plantain that’s a little harder or a sweet plantain that’s softer. I wish I knew that before ordering because I definitely would’ve gone with the sweet plantain. But the fault’s on the cashier, who both didn’t tell me and also just gave me the green one by default, even though he admitted after the fact that most people order the sweet version.
Also, they serve the patacon with three bottles of sauce on the side.

I was craving cachapas and a friend recommended this place. Food was great, we ordered tequeños, cachapa and I forgot the name of the other plate, but it had fried yucca, meat and fried cheese. It was delicious. Service was a 10/10 they were amazing and we talked a bit about everything while waiting. Place was tiny, I honestly recommend doing take out, as most people do. We were the only ones there, but it was still quite small with 3 bistro tables with not so comfy stools. Great place though!

In short, loved the experience. Great Venezuelan vibe and street food for happy drunks.
With a few more details,
The store is a bit small so come off hours if you’d like to sit.
The vibe is nice. Great music. Was very clean and staff was very friendly.
The service took a minute but when I got it I understood why. Patacon was so hot and so fresh. I got the Patacon Pabellon. Was soo bomb. Plantain sandwiches should be more popular.

I regret not trying this spot much earlier. Their dishes satisfy completely and their staff always helps. You’ll love what they cook. The workers showed remarkable service commitment. This spot has me ready to come back.

Overall a great spot. The yuca fries were my favorite. They’re perfectly crispy and the pickled onions are a great palette cleanser. I prefer the plantain over the crunch wrap. I didn’t love the chorizo – it’s more of a sausage than the crumbly spicy chorizo I expected. Love love the sauces the food comes with. I would definitely come again 8/10.
