Favorites

  • Maracuchitos (appetizer) - Guayanes cheese wrapped in crisp dough and served with cipotle ketchup.
  • Pollo Verde (main) - Kim got this in 2024…was so good. Came with small gnochi
  • empanada verde
  • carne mechada arepa
  • churaso steak

Very Good:

  • Trio of empanadas - fun way to try a few empanadas
  • Cordero Tradicional - pistachio-panela-plantain crusted NZ lamb chops with mint mojo, arugula/Cabrales cheese salad.
  • Arepas are all good…need to try more.
  • Mechada (Venezuelan-style, stewed shredded beef) was very good

Didn't like:

  • Pernil arepa was mediocre
