Super delicious! The empanadas were FRESH and SIZZLING. Super flavorful food plus delicious juice options - I got a refreshing passion fruit juice.

My first time here and I’ll be back for seconds (and thirds and on!) - Excellent all around! Charming, tropical decor and a warm, bold, cheerful cashier greeted my friend and I upon entering. Her first time with Venezuelan food, not mine. At the cashier’s suggestion, she ordered and was stoked on the Reina. The Domino and a capacha did me right! Flavorful, whole food-based, and enough leftover for another meal. We loved sharing the passion fruit juice too. Thank you, Chamo!!

Honest review: As a Venezuelan, in my opinion the pabellón criollo’s meat was too much like birria… the chicken in the arepa pepiada was also a little too much like a chicken egg salad instead of chicken and avocado. Everything else was pretty authentic ☺️

I had arepas and fried plantain. The arepas were delicious: the stuffing (avocado chicken salad) was fresh and not overwhelming. The bread was cooked to perfection. The condiments were spicy. The plantains were good too.

Favorite Venezuelan Spot in SoCal. I stop by anytime I’m in the area. You must get arepas, you can’t go wrong.

This was my first experience with Venezuelan cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is vibrant and has a lovely atmosphere. I went with my friends, and we decided to share our dishes to try a wider variety of flavors. We had a great time at Chamos, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice!!

I had the pleasure of dining at Chamo Restaurant recently, and while the food was absolutely delicious—authentic Venezuelan flavors, fresh ingredients, and perfectly balanced spices.

From the moment we walked in, the service made us feel welcome with a warm smile and genuine hospitality. The service was knowledgeable about the menu, happily explained the differences between arepas and cachapas, and gave fantastic recommendations (the service suggestion to try the pabellón criollo was spot-on!).

Throughout the meal, the service was attentive without being intrusive, checking in just enough to make sure we had everything we needed. It’s clear that the service takes pride and work in representing Venezuelan culture through food and service.

I do definitely come back not just for the amazing food, but for the kindness and energy the service brings to the table.

Highly recommend!

Beautifully decorated Venezuelan restaurant. The ambiance is lively and the food is delicious. Food is ordered at the register, and brought to your table. I especially recommend the empanadas, the cachapa, and the pabellón dish.
