We split the Caribbean Queen Fountain, which was huge, tasty, and well worth the price for how many servings of drinks we got out of it for all of us. We split a selection of small plates, which we all enjoyed, and got our own entrees. -Tequeňos (5/5) LOVED these fried breaded cheese sticks. A must try! -Mandocas (5/5) spectacular corn doughnuts. -Ceviche (4.5/5) fish tasted fresh, with a good tomato sauce -Plantain Chips (4.5/5) -Empanadas (I didn't try these, but was told they were good!) For my entree, my friend and I split the Asado Negro for two (4/5) The 48h braised short rib is very tender, and it's served with a side of arepas. This dish is good, but very heavy and filling.

I think it was like $110 and I only ordered bc of a great Michelin review. Will never trust them again. Im such a fool. I took the remainder home with hopes someone else might enjoy but it was rejected! I'll make you a better short rib! One of the most unfortunate dining experiences for the price. If you have the money, it's prob fine. But for a special night and meal out, PASS!

Both were so flavorful, especially the chicken, and the plantains and cheese on the veg were the perfect combo. The empanadas were so fluffy and the cazón I got worked really well inside, the spices they added to the fish married it well with the dough. And the sauces!! Total must, particularly the creamy green sauce, but also the others ruled. And the prices were reasonable, I was very full after a $6 empanada and $13.50 arepa, for a lighter meal could probably just have the latter. Awesome spot in Bushwick for sit-down arepas.

We ordered the mini empanadas (corn) and pastels (flour) with assorted chicken, cheese, and beef filling and all were delicious, my favorite being the beef empanada. They were perfectly fried and crispy and the beef was juicy and seasoned. I had the pabellon arepa which was a great portion, with juicy pulled pork, tasty black beans, plantains, and cheese. We also enjoyed the carne molida (ground beef) bowl, a chicken/sausage/steak platter, and the mixed protein sandwich which was enormous. The ground beef was a touch dry and the juice from the pulled pork made the bottom half of the arepa a bit soggy, but I didn't mind that. Overall everything was delicious and generously portioned! There is limited seating indoors but we were able to get a table at 5pm on a Saturday with no wait. The food took a little while (~20min) but it was well worth the wait!

For fear of being deeply dramatic, I had to actually put my fork down and do some mindful eating when I had that first bite. The meat was so flavorful. The whole meal was absolutely delicious, and the sauces were very good. BUT without them, the whole meal was phenomenal. I didn't love that the beans were a little sweet, but they paired well with the plantains. I also realize that I must've been eating arepas wrong my whole life because this one was steaming hot, moist, and had a bit of a crunch. Lots of seats available at 2:30, but still had multiple tables full of people. Music popping, a colorful bathroom, good vibes.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was and a bowl was perfect because it was not too heavy, it was just right. And the cheese on the rice was definitely something new. The only critique that we have about our order is that we ordered 3 empanadas, 2 beef and 1 plantain and cheese but instead we got 3 plantain and cheese empanadas so Uber had to refund us the money for the empanadas. We were really looking forward to the beef and we ordered the empanadas separately, not as a trio, to avoid any mistakes; yet whoever took the order made the mistake anyway. Despite this error, the food was amazing, and I look forward to eating from there again in the future
