Empanadas to Try

“Great place for a Venezuelan treat. Must try the empanadas, specially the Cazon filled. Also the tequeños.”

“Casual place with excellent Venezuelan-style food and a family atmosphere. I tried the arepas, scrambled eggs, empanadas de cazón, cachapas, and the papelon con limón. Everything was fresh and great tasting. I recommend this place 100%. Photo of the scrambled eggs with beans and arepas.”

“The empanadas are amazing!! I can never bring myself to try anything else on the menu because the empanadas are so delicious - I always get the chicken empanadas (with the delicious dipping sauce) and the Nutella ones for dessert. And they’re gluten free! I have Celiac and have never had any issues after eating here. This is definitely a favorite spot whenever I’m downtown!”

“We were by the Zoo and wanted to try Venezuelan food. So glad we stopped here. The chicken and beef empanadas are amazing. My kids had the cheese and plantain ones and loved those. We all tried the pabellón arepas and they were delicious. They were very quick with the food. Definitely coming back.”

“Best empanadas I’ve ever had! The cilantro sauce is so fresh and most of the food is gluten free”
