Venezuelan Restaurants near Miami Lakes, FL

“toda la comida muy rica y el trato a las personas“

“Ángela nos atendió y fue una persona muy agradable. Sus recomendaciones estuvieron excelentes. Definitivamente volveremos por su buena atención �“

“Great burgers! Me and my wife were craving a good burger in our area. We came across Charles & Larry’s and with a 4.6 rating, we said, let’s give it a shot!

The place is small and has capacity for about 30 -40 people. We were immediately greeted by a very friendly server, who was very helpful with the menu.

I ordered the Charles burger and, as you see in the picture, it did not disappoint!!! My wife ordered a single burger, but it was as good.

The Charles came with two patties, American cheese, Venezuelan soft - hand made cheese, coleslaw, lettuce, bacon and julienne potato sticks. I opted out of the tomatoes.

Burgers were cooked to perfection and the flavors were harmonious!!! Drizzle them up with some “house sauce” and it’s as perfect as a Venezuelan burger could be. I guess the only thing missing was a fried egg on top!!

Needless to say, I could not finish my burger as it was waaaayyy too big for me to finish it (and I can eat!!)

Five stars to the Maracuchos (Venezuelans from Maracaibo). I will definitely go back!“

“Fabulous food and service. Luisa took the time to go through the menu with us. Had Bandeja Paisa - our first Colombian dish and it was delicious. Freshly squeezed orange juice and home made lemonade. Huge portions. Would definitely recommend and we will return.“

“Es nuestra primera vez en el restaurant, fue una experiencia maravillosa, nos atendió Juan Pablo, un muchacho excelente, educado, respetuoso, estuvo siempre al tanto de que todo estuviera bien y que nos sintiéramos a gusto, lo recomiendo para un rato en familia,buena música, atención de primera, deliciosa comida y un placer enorme de quien nos atendió“

“Bocas Grill in Doral is a hidden gem for families! Amazing flavor, great prices, and the platter we ordered was outstanding. What really sets them apart is how kid-friendly they are — they even have a play area for kids while you dine. The kids menu was delicious and the service was 💯. We’ll definitely be back!

Highly recommended for families, couples, and anyone looking for great food and a relaxed, fun atmosphere. We will definitely be back! ✅🍽️✨“

“It was a unique experience. It was my first time trying the bar, and they exceeded my expectations. The food, drinks, and desserts were excellent. Thanks to Melissa’s service — she attended to us with great kindness and a wonderful attitude 🥰“

“Valentina y Santiago la sacaron del parque!! la comida está deliciosa y los jugos un treat para el paladar ��“

“I hadn't had a Venezuelan cocada in years, they recommended this place to me and IT WAS SIMPLY EXTRAORDINARY ??
GOOD COCADA, and very delicious empanadas, without a doubt I would come again 1 thousand times more!! I'm from Ohio, and if they will ship cocadas there, haha, believe me, I would order daily ?“

“These empanadas are on another level! 🥟✨ The dough is perfectly thin, golden, and just the right crunch. But the real magic? The filling — every single flavor I tried was rich, mouthwatering, and full of personality. One bite and you’re hooked… trust me, your taste buds will thank you! 😋“

“From the moment I walked in, this brunch spot felt like home. Valentina welcomed us in and was our server for the late morning. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, the kind of place where you can relax and actually enjoy your time instead of feeling rushed. The staff were genuinely kind and attentive, making the experience feel personal rather than routine. The food was comforting and delicious, clearly made with care, and every bite felt like something you’d crave again. It’s the kind of place you leave already looking forward to coming back. The best part is that they have a market where you can take all your favorite items to eat at home! Highly recommend if you’re looking for great brunch with a true homey vibe.“

“The best coffee near MIA! Miami Coffee, directly across from the Aloft Hotel, is a lifesaver. Our coffees were incredible, and we have to give major props to Fernanda for her amazing skills. She made our morning! Highly recommend. Oh and they also offer empanadas they look pretty good. We’ll try them on the next visit.“

“Wifey wanted authentic Venezuelan food and this place hit the spot. We got fish and beef empanada and it was so freaking good w their cilantro ? Sauce . Yellow green farmers market is where this booth is located at and parking is $10. The market is only open on weekends so just be aware of that.

We got some tequenos as well and man oh man were they cheesy w a hint of saltiness . Sooo sooo good .

We came back the next day cuz it was so good but they ran out of empanadas sad face . I got a beef pepito sammie and wife got chicken. Arepa . The pepito was so good but a little messy. Her arepa was delicious . The chicken sauce was amazing . Great service and right in the action of the market .

Parking: Trying to find the parking spot drove me insane“

“The best Andean pastries ?? you can eat in Florida! The flavor of the pastries takes you to the Venezuelan Andes, the Andean masato is authentic, just like the ones you get in the Tachira markets. As a gocha and a Venezuelan, I can only be happy and proud to get El rinconcito andino in a place far from home. Furthermore, Mrs. Coromoto and his family always serve you with care, demonstrating their roots in the city of cordiality ?“

“This is the best Venezuelan location I have ever ever been to.They made the best empanadas,tequeños,and patacon for me.The texture of the patacon is exquisite with a perfect mixture of flavors that will make you experience an orgasmic reaction.The tequeños, all full of cheese and my empanadas of ground beef and cheese were crispy and tasty.Customer service is beyond this world.Alexander and Melanie run the extra mile for you without hesitation.Do not doubt and you will enjoy an amazing experience!!!“

“Arepa Pueblo is one of those small hidden gems you stumble upon by accident and end up returning to hundreds of times. In fact, this restaurant is my go to when I want quantity Venezuelan comfort food in the South Broward. Their homemade arepas are made with fresh ingredients and are the best I’ve ever had outside of South America. They’re served up in a quaint, friendly and inviting location just off Palm Ave and Johnson St in Pembroke Pines. Try them out…. You’ll be glad you did!!“

“One of the best food trucks in Doral 🔥

Very tasty food at a great price. The service is very family-like, the lady who took care of us was very sweet and was always making sure we had all we wanted.

We had the mixed shawarma and the bbq “parrilla”, they were both 10/10 👍 It is plenty of food so make sure you’re very hungry before you go!

Will be coming back soon.“

“I have been eating at this place for two days, I am from Connecticut and here I feel at home from the nestea to the empanada, the cachapa, the soup, everything takes me to Venezuela with its taste of home, very good prices and without forgetting that they have all our sweets! You must come and enjoy, they are very friendly!!“

“Stumbled upon this place walking for a different food spot and decided to eat here instead, and I’m very pleased that I made the choice. It has been difficult to find restaurants that know how to actually cook in Miami so I was very pleased today and will be coming back here to explore the different drinks that they have on their menu. I ordered this blue cocktail and it was a perfect combination is sweet and subtle flavor of wine.

They have these cool milkshake looking drinks, but I did not try them yet and plan to one day. Had the stuffed tostones for appetizers and they were by far my favorite ones I’ve tried. Then I ordered the Venezuela bowl and it was a lot of food and all the flavors just came together very well. Love the atmosphere of the place, definitely coming back here again! Also many gluten-free options to enjoy!“

“I'm staying in Doral for a couple of days and while I was stuck in the hotel I decided to have food delivered. I chose this place due to it's great reviews and they did not disappoint. Everything was delicious and authentic, and the portion was very generous. I would definitely hit this spot if you're in the area!“

“Reasonably priced, fast and delicious Venezuelan food. The burgers with fried cheese are killer, same with the empanadas.

My go to is a cachapa smothered in garlic sauce.

The staff is friendly and attentive. I come here at least once a week wether is for breakfast or at night for a cachapa or a burger

It’s nice to finally have a Venezuelan food spot in Miami that is not overpriced.“

We had the hallaca Venezolana for the first time (thats similar to tamale) it was soooo delicious! Also had the pan de jamon. I highly recommend! Going to go back to take some hallaca Venezolana back to our room. Friendly service!“

“This was amazing wood fire cooked steak. You have to taste it to believe because it is that good. The beef quality, the cuts and the wood fire makes it insanely good. If you are a steak lover you have to try it. Be there at 11:00am (that’s when when the steak has had 3 hours to cook). Trust me!“
