For a little bit more of 15€, you get a drink, three fillings for your unlimited (a-volonté) arepas and a coffee. Can't beat that. The arepas are small, but since they are unlimited, this is not an issue at all. I ate two arepas for each filling (strongly recommend the Reina Pepiada and Carne Mechada) and I was completely full. For sure that we will come back. Service is also very nice, quick and attentive.

Great Venezuelan restaurant in the heart of Antwerpen! If you like arepas or South American…read moredesserts, this is your spot in Flandes. Even my girlfriend, born and raised in Caracas, give her thumbs up. For those of you who are non familiar with the Venezuelan cuisine, I would recommend to order some tequenhos as appetizers (similar to mozarella sticks, but much much better) and the six mini-arepas combo, so you can try the famous Pabellon, Pelua or Reina Pepiada. Can't wait to be back!

La Fonda is located down a slight obscure alley, not far from the Opera House. The space is…read morecompact, but holds a number of tables. Go early as it did fill up on a Sunday for dinner. We arrived at 6:30pm. I'd have given this five stars had there been more entree options available on the menu. But out of eight main dishes, five were unavailable. However, what we did end up having was delicious. Starter: Beef empanadas, two small but delicious empanadas with lots of flavor, served with a spicy salsa. Mains: Bandeja paisa - if you love pork belly, this is a deep fried strip of pork belly, served with rice that has a fried egg on top, half a plantain, a tostone, shredded beef, half an avocado, and what I'll assume is a Colombian coleslaw (on the vinegary side). The soup, Sancocho, was a delicious concoction of beef and pork ribs, with potatoes, plantains and yucca. Comes with rice, half the avo, and the same coleslaw. Service was straightforward and friendly. Their English was limited, as was our French and Spanish, but the order sheet and picture menu were helpful. Give it a go. Family run, unpretentious, no loud dance music playing, and there didn't seem to be a ton of tourists. Our meal as noted above with three waters ran us €47. CASH ONLY.

Since I had the luck to go there twice I could try various things and must give lots of compliments for every dish!

Both times, my husband and i went with the Roots menu and the wine pairing. The plates are thoughtfully composed and the chef is talented in turning even some simple foods into extraordinary dishes. The service is excellent and friendly. We have discovered some very tasty wines through the wine pairing, making our exploration more of an adventure! If you have an opportunity to go, don't miss it. I doubt you'll be disappointed.

The barmaid was so friendly, customer-orientated, observant and funny! Now it seems there are a lot of locals in this place, coming in for a beer, pisco or a chat. I would always recommend to go back to this place for the quality of the food and the atmosphere.

GLAS IN OUR FOOD AND NOT EVEN AN APOLOGISE!…read more Maybe as a Bar can have more than 1 star, but as a restaurant I'll give them minus stars. For sure. I'm Chilean and a professional cook and I felt so ashamed for the shit food that we got. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who is interested to discover Chilean food. First of all, the plates had an horrible presentation and I'm quiet sure that they were reheated in the microwave. Cooked vegetables in a wierd sauce (not Chilean at all) with rice (basmati rice with a few pieces of paprika, unflavoured and I haven't taste something like that in my country ever!), then a ceviche that the not fresh fish was marinated in lemon maybe for more than a few days, again with Paprika (not typical at all) and that's it! mashed potatoes PASTEL, with a presentation that made me think that the cook dropped it on the floor and put it in the plate again and for the last plate, my friend had meat balls with rice (everything had this disgusting rice on te side) with a very nice surprise: GLAS! We said it to the waiter and he didn't even apologise he just took it away to the kitchen or the shit place where they prepare the stuff and he didn't dare to come back to our table to say something else about it and at the end he just discount the plate with the piece of glass. The owner which I think is also the cook has a shit attitude, rude and unfriendly. At the end of our dinner (21h) he seems to be drunk and he annoyed us with his loud way to sing (or scream mainly) To summaries SHIT FOOD, EXPENSIVE PRICES (considering the quality) and CRAP SERVICE! so at the end as a Chilean cook living abroad since a long time, I never felt so ashamed for going to this place with Belgian friends, a place that supposed to serve Chilean food. PLEASE, DONT GO TO THIS PLACE, SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

Then as a main there was the Bandeja Paisa colombienne which offers a lovely combination of beef, sausage, lard, baked bananas, beans and a bit of rice.

Add to that a very pleasant fellow who took the orders - most comfortable in Spanish but making do in other languages - and the great location at the lively Parvis St Gilles, and you're in for a good dining experience.

Portions are generous, prices are very competitive and the taste of the food is delicious and certainly different from many restaurants in Brussels. They have a nice selection of ceviches as starters and dishes with meat and rice as main courses. They also have some fried fishes but I did not try those. Service is efficient and kind. Certainly worth trying this place, I hope you will also enjoy it!
