This was my first time trying a cachapa and I think I'm addicted now! It was the perfect mix and sweet and savory. The sauce and cheese I chose was fresh and delicious and the carnitas was juicy and tender! I will definitly be coming back soon!

I ordered the cachapa and was amazed at how large this thing was! For around $15 a bowl, this is very well worth it. There aren't a lot of places that offer cachapa and arepas and I'm glad that this place doesn't disappoint!

Just finished visiting Somos for a quick snack, loved the place. Ambiance is vibrant inside, plenty of space and lighting, sparking and clean. Menu is on the wall, pick your crust, fill it in with protein, pick your toppings and sauce. We tried the Venezuelan cheese sticks and each got an empanada, one chicken and the other beef. We also asked for a few sauces and the gentlemen was gracious enough to give us a solo small cup of them all. Sauces were impressive, especially the picante, flavorful and has a nice kick to it. We enjoyed dipping our cheese sticks in them. We each loved our empanada, was fairly sized and fried crispy. Meat was tender and juicy! They also have some bowls on the menu, intrigued to try those considering how good the rest of our food was, give this place a try, you will not regret it!

Meat was mushy and over seasoned. Not edible. Mango juice was watered down.

The meat is inconsistent when it comes to flavor and quality. Tastes like week old meat , was my favorite place now I stay clear. Needs better management.

The Arepas seemed a bit dry, stale, the fillings ok. Not bad but not sure I'll try again. Note it was fairly close to closing time, so that may have been a factor

Found this place just looking for something to eat! Everything looked so good we ordered an empanada, arepa and cachapa. With 2 drinks it was $31!! We are leaving full and definitely keeping this place as one of our new favorites!!

What a pleasant surprise this place was, knowing so little about Venezuelan cuisine the staff gracefully explain all the options/dishes they have, every single thing we tried it was delicious, we had cachapas and it was fantastic, with so many options to try can’t wait to come back!
