It was so cold and this food was warming us up perfectly! Lots of options on their menu and just FYI the menu does have English and Spanish translations. There is not a lot of seating so I would not recommend a large party to dine in but they do offer takeout! There's still a couple of tables though for 2-4 people each. Plates are heavy so be prepared to take some home! Staff is super sweet and kind but it was just 1 waitress :) Food came out pretty fast though

First time here and the servers were super nice and had great recommendations. The food was delicious and the portions are great. I had a maracuya drink that one of the girls recommended and it was so refreshing. I loved it!

The food was really good. The Arepa was humongous, authentic, and the most delicious I've tried so far! Good Venezuelan food. I stopped early in the morning to catch some breakfast (8:15am)

The best empanadas in Chicago by far. Maria did great. She gave us the big bottle of sauce, because, of course, the rule is sauce-bite-sauce-bite.
