Came here after getting the Birthday cake ice cream from Milk jawn, had to come in after walking by days before after getting Dough head weekday special. Glad I had iPhone translate to help with my ask for recommendations and just randomly went with the Flurry Pelùa shredded beef with cheddar cheese, the beef empanada and the con todo hot dog.

The hot dog I admit was a mistake and worst to get just not good lol n think maybe the hot dog was boiled but also...

Stopped here for food along a bike ride, had the most amazing vegan arepa and plantains (both with amazing guasacaca, guacamole salsa). the folks running the restaurant were so incredibly nice and took good care of our large group. will return!

Best arepas in Philadelphia!! The vegan one and hand pulled cheese are my go-tos. Delicious plantains too. Don’t forget the guasacaca sauce!
