The Traditional Cuban Sandwich word of mouth brought me here 12 years ago, though the Mofongo, Parilla Callejera, Smashed Green Plantains, Empanadas, and so much more still hit. Plus, the more recent renovations as well as the 2nd location, on Crossroads, have truly opened the ambiance and atmosphere which better serve and represent the culture, pride, and enthusiasm, for such amazing aromas and colorful flavors😋🎉🥰

I really enjoyed this authentic Venezuelan restaurant - the love and pride for Venezuela is in every detail.
I really loved that things were labeled in Spanish and English, what a welcoming environment.
The food was divine.

First time stopping in, walked away impressed! I ordered the Bandejita Paisa, it’s made up of some simple components but it makes for a great ensemble! It was fairly busy and the wait didn’t tale too long, which is a plus. Definitely want to stop here again and try more dishes!
