My friend and I stumbled upon this place when our original plan fell through and we are so glad it did! We were drawn in by the vibrant lights and we immediately fell in love with the atmosphere. The person who waited on us was so sweet and the food was SO GOOD. I cant wait to come back!

It use to be so good here. The food changed. I’m not sure if they have a new owner. But I wish they would have never changed the food.

Food is delicious — can’t recommend the arepas and fried chicken enough. Really good value for the amount of food you get too.

One of the best restaurants in Chicago. Everything I've tried here is amazing. The avocado sauce and hot sauce are incredible. Interior is tacky but in a charming/endearing way. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

This is the best Venezuelean food I have had. The empanada crust was perfect, and the stuffing was seasoned just right. If you are a fan of cilantro, definitely try adding the creamy cilantro sauce. They have hot sauce too that is kind of creamy, but be careful a lot goes a long way.

This place has the best Latin food in Chicagoland. I can't recommend it enough. Try an area, any arepa. They're all tasty. Beware of the hot sauce. Latin hot is next level. There is a grocery store around the corner for you to BYOB into El Rincon.

Shredded beef and pork both delicious. Friendly staff, inviting atmosphere.
The food and service were amazing. The “The Queen” arepa (comes with 2) was delicious, the Chicha drink was also nice and then we ordered some churros that were crispy and warm. Our waiter was kind and available to answer questions. 100% would recommend.

This place is sooooo good! It was very friendly and quick service. The atmosphere is fantastic, music was great. Food is amazing, I had the Pabellon Arepas the meat has a great flavor and the balance of sauce and filling is perfect. The mango juice also tastes great. I’ll definitely be back!
