I love the food, the service is amazing but no bathrooms is the worst part, specially during the winter.

If you were to say I only came around this particular spot because of the current events going on in Venezuela, you might be right. I've visited many Latin American restaurants but I don't think I've checked the box next to Venezuela so this would be a first time entry for me.
Going inside the area, it's relatively small but since I was the only customer at the time, it was spacious. The waitress Paula was a sweetheart and served me well as I was figuring what to take on in this restaurant. I went for the standard Arepa Burger, fries and for dessert, I did want the brownie with ice cream but they didn't have that available so I settled for churros with nutella. The wait wasn't too long, very much short of 8 minutes when everything was set.
The Arepa burger came loaded with Shredded beef & Chicken, black beans, Shredded white cheese & maduros. For what it's worth, you'll get your fill from this makeshift burger, it was so filling. The fries were done with excellent detail, firm crisp texture along with taste and goes pretty well with the Ketchup & Mayo mixture the place had with one of their condiment bottles. When it came time to take on the churros, I immediately got thrown off because they're not the churros I'm normally used to. Instead what was smothered with the nutella happened to be cheese sticks and at first I thought it was a mistake but seeing pictures on here, that's basically what it is. I do love cheese sticks and I do love nutella, but in my opinion they're not meant to be combined so I had to forgo it. Everything else was top notch.
The food was very decent and the service was proper so everything I got was $23 and I threw in a $7 tip to round it off to $30 total for the meal. They got many different variants of Arepa sandwiches so there is certainly revisit value in this place and I can go for that.

Delicious food spot on Jackson Ave, and the portions are huge. Triple pepitos are the move—I have never felt more full in my life!
Fresh and hot...first time ordering here. Def ordering again.

This is the first time getting food from this place and I have to say it was amazing. I got the caraquena burger and was pleasantly surprised. I will definitely be ordering from here again at some point.

AMAZING arepas, best I’ve had in NYC. No frills, fresh made to order food, great ambiance, and the sweetest team of girls working here. No restroom, but they were kind to give me access for an emergency. Can’t wait to come back, the food was delicious!!!
I had a cachapa and one arepa domino, they were delicious! I hope they can come up with more vegetarian or even vegan options ??? The staff is friendly, respectful, and helpful!

The food is delicious because I'm not going to deny it but the customer service is terrible. I haven't gone to eat there for a while and I've already gone two days in a row and they no longer give sauce on the table, you have to stop and ask for sauce and they do it. They give you a small separate pot, you order something and they bring something to your table that is not it (for example, I asked for a chicken nugget and they brought me a chicken and beef nugget. There were only 2 tables occupied in the restaurant so it was not very full. to say that the table was mixed up) they give a small pot of sauce for 3 people at a table, they are going to lose customers just because of the poor treatment of the employees and the service.
