I’ve only ever picked up food from here, but the food is so good that I’m drooling thinking about it. I had no idea what an Arepa was, but was delighted from the moment I tasted the deliciously prepared meat tucked into its thick-tortilla-like shell. The chicharron here are worth a taste, for $10 you get massive chunks of chicharron that aren’t just fat but meaty as well— some of the best I’ve ever had.

Second time going here, and I wish they would have more servers on busy nights. We waited a while to get our menu. The reason we didn't go somewhere else is because we had already walked around Willow Glen and wanted to give this place a second try. The food is ok. I have tasted better arepas, but their "green" sauce was delicious. There was only one server for the whole restaurant and two cooks. The server had a great attitude and apologized.

Today I had a bad experience with a waitress/cashier who since I arrived treated me in a very bad way and all the time by being rude and making a bad face, I asked her for the manager or the owner and she handed me a card with the name of Joanna Torres, who I assume is her, has always been there and there has been very good attention but this is the first time I have seen this lady and I was very upset today.
