Wonderful locally owned food place! This is super close to my apartment and I will be here often. Really excited to work my way through their delicious menu! Prices are great for the quality and portion size. Can’t wait to come back skip the chains and support local!

Spotted this little shop while out for some errands. As I was already planning to pick up some drive thru takeaway for dinner, this quickly became the (better) plan. Yes, it was cold, and yes, there’s only a walk up window, but the very helpful staff at the window knew almost exactly how long it was going to take for my order to be ready, so it was convenient to just go wait in my car. And if your visit is planned, then just order ahead. Everything was delicious. The chicken, although tasty, is in just about the same format wherever it appears in an iteration, so if you want a lot of diversity, order accordingly. The black beans and rice are delicious – definitely a worthy side. The arepas were my favorite, especially (ESPECIALLY) the guasacaca. So fresh and fresh tasting! It surpassed my expectations. I would go back and get just these, honestly. But we enjoyed everything else we got, as well, with leftovers. I ordered approx two bags of food, for reference. Those arepas are super sturdy, and I would estimate they’re the equivalent of two tacos; pricing seems very appropriate. The quick pickled shredded carrots that came with the rice are really nice. The sauce on the side is interesting. Not spicy, but adds just a bit more.

Came in today after driving past. We were wanting to try the Cuban sandwich and took the owner, José’s, recommendation on the Arepas and Empanada combo. Cuban was absolutely amazing, definitely in the top 3 for me and I’m from Tampa. The owner was a great guy to talk to and he said that they’d be adding burritos to the menu this coming Monday. I can’t wait

I was impressed. I honestly didn’t think I was going to like much but I loved it. Keep up the good food quality.

Ordered the Cubano and Sweet Plantains – both were delicious. Friendly service.

I tried to visit but there’s a sign on the door that leads to a different location that unfortunately doesn’t serve the same food. The very nice cashier at the new location said that they would soon be bringing over the pernil and Cuban sandwich. Once those are there, I’m dying to try!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our food was prepared fairly quickly, which was nice! Overall though, the food was just okay. We got a few different things and were a little disappointed. It was cooked well – the meat pulled apart and the rice was soft, etc. The food doesn’t taste like it was seasoned, everything was quite bland. The bread on the empanada and arepa was halfway between soggy and firm. Not saying it was bad, but we just weren’t impressed.

Had a combo lunch that turned out to be superb! Don’t hesitate to try this place that features a Venezuelan heritage menu that offer affordable quality. It’s a refreshing change of mild flavors yet quality food.
