What stole the show for me was their take on the dot cake trend with tres leches which was phenomenal. While the interior itself is a little small they also have an enclosed patio where you can enjoy your food complete with air conditioning. Overall definitely recommend Con Salsa and as a pro-tip don't skip out on desert here!

The food was absolutely delicious! The sauce , meat, and dough all complimented each other. The green sauce that they had on the side was soooo good that you can just pour it on!

We got a sampling of Arepas and I liked all of them except the cheese-filled one. The paella was yummy. The owners stopped by our table and we chatted with them for awhile. Our service was great.

We stopped by on our way to Dulles for a trip. It's a decent sized casual establishment. Greeted by…read morea guy who also served us. The service was good, as was the food. Here's the take on the items we ordered. The Cachapa was middle of the road. The maize was a little thin, the cheese was generous, and the overall size was about right for the price. The empanadas we nice and crispy on the outside and the meat was seasoned well. The yuccas were much denser that we usually have. My wife didn't love them, but I did. We had a sip of the ponche crema they were selling by the bottle for the holiday. It was decent, but not exceptional. Overall a solid choice for those seeking Venezuelan cuisine in NoVa!

One of my faves! I…read morehighly recommend arepa pabellón - shredded beef and arepa vegallón - avocado, plantain, beans, and cheese. Add tostones (they come with Cole slaw traditionally, so if you just want a sauce to dip into... specify that). If you have a sweet tooth, the churros never miss! You're going to love the vibe here. The service is always great and the staff is so sweet, very knowledgeable, & really patient with my children when they order in Spanish. I love that Richmond is getting more and more open to real food cuisines instead of those flavorless chains folks in this city love to cling too. I come here way too often... But that's OK because I love it.

Service was super quick and the arepa was absolutely delicious - I got the avocado, beans, cheese arepa which had so much flavor. We also got a fresh mango juice which was a great pairing with the food. Would definitely have come here again to try more food when we are hungrier, and super sad to hear it has since closed.

The two empanadas and one pastele had a nice golden crisp with warm fillings, and the arepa was loaded with food! The drink was very thick and not too sweet, was perfect as someone who likes thick milkshakes (not that it was a milkshake). The green sauce they provide as well with the meals is addicting. Can't wait to keep going!

We have been left wondering how in the world this place isn't slam packed every second that they're…read moreopen. (The only reason must be because it's newer!) This was hands down the best Hispanic food we have ever had. I got some empanadas (best I've had anywhere) and my boyfriend got their Rincón burger (pictured below) - he said it was the best burger he's had anywhere, ever. If you're considering trying this place, absolutely do it. It's phenomenal. I can't say enough good things about it! Although I'm not typically a massive outdoor seating fan, their outdoor seating is so nice and I was a fan of the atmosphere!

I still didn't know what my topping options were for them. Luckily after looking at the menu, their website, Yelp, and google images I was finally able to figure out what I wanted (too much work lol). I landed on the Pabellon Arepa which had shredded beef, black beans, cheese and plantains.... They deffffffffff needed to strain them black beans a lot more and distribute the ingredients more because it wasn't just messy, it was atomic bomb messy. I needed 100 napkins and a knife and fork to get through it. It was pretty tasty though! My hubs got the pulled pork with avocado, def not as messy and it was pretty good. We also got the cheese sticks appetizer, I would say this was just okay. It was their take on mozzarella sticks essentially. My friend ordered the Cachapas Richmonder.... It was SO SO GOOD! We all took a bite and were wowed by how good it was! She definitely won in the food ordering. I would get that next time and highly recommend it to anyone! Overall it was really good! We were all satisfied!

I've tried the Tequeños, arepas, empanadas, cachapas, and the plantain sandwich, and every single one has been worth it. It's tucked next to a gas station, which adds to the charm. Parking's a bit unpredictable, so I usually park across the street and walk over. Easy enough. The hostess is lovely. Welcoming, helpful, and always spot on with her suggestions. Whether you're dining in or grabbing food to go, Chamo's is one of those places that makes you feel good about coming back. Time for another visit.
