   Excellent brunch and cocktails! Loved the Venezuelan twist on breakfast with plantain and refried beans. It was all delicious and pretty healthy, just wish the chicken was hot! Great gluten-free options too for my friend. Will be returning!

   We had an amazing brunch here. We visited Saturday around 2pm and it was not very busy so probably no need to book in advance. I had one of the brunch bowls with a cachapa (my first cachapa and I am now obsessed). My partner had the chicken stuffed arepa but this was much smaller than we expected so not really a main. We also tried the yuca balls with whipped feta and sugar cane which were incredible and the fried plantain with pulled pork, also very nice. The food is great, I just wish (brunch bowl being the exception) that the portions were a bit bigger. I couldn’t help noticing this restaurant seemed a bit emptier than some of its neighbours and that may be because they are seen to offer better value for money.

   I ordered 2 arepas and 2 beef bowls. Both were extremely small, barely had ANY beef (below), no rice in bowls, very stingy with the beef, and also opened up one of my arepas to find a small slice of plastic. Not sure what it came off of, but that is a SERIOUS hazard that nobody should take lightly. When I called, the person who was handling my complaint was very dismissive and said she’d talk to the kitchen, with no ‘sorry’. The portion sizes are TERRIBLE and not a good value for money at all. £50 for half a meal is not applauded. I was expecting the arepas to give me some hope that I didn’t waste my money, but they only made this cause worse. Not only did the plastic disappoint me, but the lack of beef in everything was very bad. I am sincerely asking for a refund, as I think that portions and customer service is very bad here.If you have a shortage of food, CLOSE THE RESTAURANT. Person who answered my call gave no apology and said she’d talk to the kitchen. This place is hazardous. No value for money. Avoid if possible.

   Living in West London, it is not easy for someone like me to try Venezuelan food as there aren't any restaurants nearby. That's when I saw this place online and I had a strong craving to try arepas. We travelled all the way to Stockwell and we can say we were happy with the whole experience. Gary, and his colleague, took our order, did the billing, and was really polite and professional. They ensured food was served without any delay. Coming to the food, it isn't often I have a dining experience that left me so happy just on the basis of the food quality and taste. The arepas, yucca balls with feta, cachapas, bunuelos, drinks all were great. The sauces that were provided were good too with the chili avocado being my favorite. The food was tasty and didn't leave a greasy aftertaste in the mouth, which I loved. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to try arepas. The restaurant is suitable place for a perfect afterwork quick dinner on a weekday with your work colleagues. The restaurant doesn't offer anything too fancy nonetheless you can expect a good happy dinner.

   A really friendly place. The staff were fun and happy to help and chatty. I am keen to learn more about the food here. It is a touch heavy and oily but that’s always good thing. A really nice casual midweek meal.

   The food here is amazing!! I will be back to try anything I didn't try on this visit. There's a lot of choice and it all sounds and looks delicious. The dishes we tried certainly were. The staff were polite and friendly, and the food came quickly. It's stars not 5 because the drinks were slow, and as we were short on time, this impacted the meal. Hopefully that's resolved when next we go.

   Great food, I was surprised by the difference in taste pallet. We had the guava glazed fried chicken, yuca ships and beef pastries for starters - all delicious and their unusual sauces were really tasty. For main we had the beef arepas and the chicken avocado arepa with a fresh salad. Everything was pretty tasty. The only thing is, it seems a bit pricey for the portions. Definitely a place to try of you are after something new and fresh.

   I went yesterday with a group of friends and I simply could not rate this place high enough. The food was to die for, the guarapita (my favourite drink) was the best, the ambience very pleasant and the service was brilliant. Highly recommend!
