a lot of stuff they didn’t have. Theirs a place by my house that’s closer but they’re also always out. Will try again to leave a review.
Looks like they’re renovating and possibly may have DJ at night idk lol the arepa was for my grandma so I’ll have to give a better review when items are available.
4.25. Part 2: came back place was organized BUT THE FOOD WAS NASTY IDK WHY THEIRS CHEDDAR CHEESE ON MY AREPA BUT IT WAS GROSS
CHICHA TASTED LIKE THICK TAPIOCA WITH NO CANELA! Didn’t taste like chicha to me at all
Empanada was good but what the hell with the cheese
– imagine wanting a taco and getting cheaper cheese on it bc it’s not Mexican
-food is gross, the parcha is good but not enough items for me to come back
Fried yucca was good but that’s about it, gave it a second chance wont be returning

The food is good. I ordered cachapa with cheese and fried pork, meat empanada, chicken, potato pastry, passion fruit and guava juices. It was very good. The prices are high. They have two types of prices: cash and when you pay with a card.

I go here very frequently for tequeños. It seems like the place is ran by overly privileged Venezuelan’s. One of the times my brother was almost scammed by a gentleman that thought he had slight of hand to add tip on a take out order, once confronted; acted surprises and proceeds to ask “oh you don’t want to add tip?”. Another time I went on a rush and went and scanned without looking at anything until I got home to find out on a notification on my phone that the food was slightly more expensive than usual (They added tip). Today my girlfriend goes in to buy some tequeños aswell and pays with cash $50 was handed; $17 dollars was returned like what!?!? Not even a shame in their body to be stealing from people in plain site?! Keep in mind the cost for a dozen is ~$22, Of course the lady was confronted and acted like it was all a mistake. What an embarrassment of an establishment. These are the people that put shame to the ACTUAL hard working Hispanic community.

The food is good. The service is TERRIBLE. They come take your order and then forget about you. Got 1 drink the entire time. My brother ordered a sandwich and it took them so long to bring it out. Everyone was almost done with their food when it finally came out. No one came to ask if we were okay, nothing. The waitresses are just standing around talking and on their phone.Then they want a tip. Save yourself a headache and just order take out. And they have the music so loud you can’t even talk to the people at your table.

Gross, sloppy and mediocre arepas overall. Their fried rice dishes were greasy, bland, tasteless drowned in sodium dishes. Huge disappointment cause don’t like eating my valuable, limited spare time and hard earned money. I was warned by friends, co-workers that such cuisine was marginal at best, but I didn’t in listened.

Had the parrilla for one person, no flavor. Everything was probably cooked in the same oil at the same time since the yuca, meat, sausage, etc. tasted the same. A couple of the items requested were not available. No orange juice nor shredded beef empanadas (what I came there to try). Not that many options under kids menu. Everything ordered was super greasy. Needless to say, non of us finished what we ordered except for our canned sodas. Won’t be coming back.
