About Cilantro & Ajo South Side

Based on the reviews, Cilantro & Ajo South Side is a casual, clean, and friendly place offering Venezuelan food with the original Venezuelan flavor in the city. The food is very flavorful and of great quality, with reasonable prices. The menu has good looking options, including the llanera arepa, which was spectacular, and the patacón and rice bowl w shredded chicken. The Reina Pepiada Arepa is also recommended, and the flan for dessert is very good. On Sunday, they have a meaty soup that is a special. The Venezuelan BBQ sandwiches, like the Pepito, are huge and awesome, and the house sauce is a signature. The customer service is top tier, with staff and managers working to fix any issues. The atmosphere is calm, making it a fun place to eat. Customers have returned several times, and one has been a loyal Saturday customer.

On Sunday they have a meaty soup that is reserved for Sunday & which reminded me of when I lived in Nicaragua for two months, many years ago, with a...read full review

this place has the best food I may have ever had from a food truck! just about everything was gluten free. usually there are one maybe two things on food truck menus that are or can be made gluten free, I was happily overwhelmed with choices. the empanada even reheated well. I will 100% be coming to bloom brew every time they are there. I may even travel to eat from this truck, it honestly was that good.

Do yourself a favor and seek them out!
