Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the empanada Verde and the arepas, as well as the Mojito with coconut. Delicious and healthy with friendly, warm service and an inviting environment. Thank you!

Terrible service. They don't know how to deal with a full restaurant. Apparently, they ran out of arepas but did not bother to inform me, while everyone else around me had already eaten. I had to call the waitress to ask if they were out of arepas. There was no communication about this. How is a restaurant featuring arepas heavily in their menu running out of arepas mid service??? And how is that not communicated to customers?? The few appetizers I had (with the rest of the party) were mid. And then they all got their dishes but I never got mine. Also, the restaurant gets very hot during this weather, especially with the open kitchen.
NOT recommended.

A well-appointed space with pleasant lighting. The cocktails were very good and elaborate, and the service was excellent, not to mention the exquisite arepas and lamb... fantastic! You have to go!
The mushroom arepas - the spinach, the butternut squash soup, the lamb chops yum yum yum yum. The shredded beef arepas were whatever but my husband liked it. What a birthday treat. Kind of shocking that I’ve lived near this restaurant for over 30 years and no one told me about it until tonight. My life will never be the same. This is one of the most delicious restaurant experiences and I was BLOWN away. Maybe top 4 or 5 restaurant experiences EVER. It’s not often you eat food where the flavors jump out at you. Didn’t hurt that they bartender is a total sweetheart too!!! Waitress also nice.

Food was average. Drinks were poor - order a mojito that was clearly made from some artifical syrup/mix; it was bright green, didn't taste good. Room was very cold, we were all freezing. Service a bit clunky, but pleasant.

We had a bunch of dishes arepa Reina pepiada, arepa pabellon, cachapas and parilla caraqueña. Food was good. We used to go to the location in the south end. I feel this location is missing one star. The experience at the south end location was amazing all the time.

Orinoco is worth the try, for sure. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. I started with the delicious tequeños and then the empanadas mechada. The empanadas were great with the salad on top. My lady had the pabellon criollo. It had great flavor and worked well with the rice and beans. She raved about the plantains. The atmosphere was good, too. Nice decor and clean. The only small gripe is that the seating is a little uncomfortable, but barely worth mentioning. Thank you for great service and an amazing meal!
Great food and prices
