    Tres leches cake
    Penny F.

    I attended an event here and they prepared small samples of sufferer foods. I love beans and rice and the black beans and rice with seasoned chicken did NOT disappoint. I will definitely be back with friends!

    Weekend brunch. Steak and Eggs

    Authentic Venezuelan food. Great taste and vibe in there. I got the steak and eggs on the brunch menu (til 2pm on weekends)

    Tacos Al pastor
    Pete J.

    Really good Al pastor tacos. Visited the food truck while at Grist House. Love the additional toppings bar they offer too. My son really enjoyed these, he said they were much better than he thought they would be. It was also nice because you could order, go grab a drink and they would buzz you when your food is ready. Prices aren't awful too which is nice.

    I had an amazing brunch experience at Cilantro & Ajo, a Venezuelan street food spot with a brand-new brunch menu! The food was absolutely delicious. To drink, I had the Papelón con Limón, a refreshing brown lemonade made from sugarcane and freshly squeezed lemons. As a starter, I tried the Tequeños--Venezuelan cheese sticks wrapped in flaky dough, served with pink sauce. They were perfectly crispy and cheesy! For the main dishes, I went with two different egg-based plates. First, the Llanero, a hearty steak-and-eggs dish featuring grilled steak, two eggs, fried cheese, two arepitas, avocado, crema, and black beans--such a satisfying combination! Then, I tried the Chilaquiles Criollos, crispy corn tortillas tossed in a rich tomato-guajillo sauce, topped with two eggs, queso fresco, avocado slices, and crema. Beyond these incredible dishes, the brunch menu also includes other egg plates and sweet treats. It will be launching very soon but only available on weekends. Cilantro & Ajo also serves lunch and dinner daily. I can't wait to go back to try their street corn and empanadas!

    The arepas here have a healthy amount of filling that left me full after half and some yucca fries. I love that they use Gouda cheese in some of their arepas and their green sauce is the perfect accompaniment. Here, you order at the counter then sit in the back, there's more room than you first expect when you walk in just fyi!

    Pabellon bowl with avocado
    Samantha R.

    Cilantro & Ajo is my favorite Latin place in the city. It's always delicious, always fresh and authentic. The Pabellon bowl can't be beat - it's the best of all worlds and the cilantro ajo sauce is everything! So happy they're open in Lawrenceville now. Welcome to the neighborhood!

    Reina Pepiada Arepa
    Michael S.

    Holy fuck. That's all that came to my mind the second I bit into these arepas The girl working the counter was friendly and helpful. I just asked for her two favorite and she gave me the Lanera and Reina Pepiada Arepa The steak in that Lanera will melt in your mouth and seasoned perfectly. The tomato too?? Beautiful touch The Reina chicken was flavorful but the star was that avocado and mayo. The cheese was plenty too and paired perfectly with it The arepas themselves are awesome. Not dry in the slightest, don't break apart for how filled they are and MASSIVE It's a nice little quick sit down spot that you won't need more than 30 min in. Everything made to order which you love to see I'm a big ass dude and a glutton. Two was the perfect amount

    Shredded Chicken Empanada

    Food is amazing. So fresh and delicious! The chicken in the shredded chicken empanada is so flavorful and I love how crispy it was. Perfect amount of filling. Their plantains are so good as well.

    Arepa pabellón
    Jubel P.

    I was looking to try a different cuisine and came across this on my drive home. I placed the order online and the food was hot and fresh when I picked it up. I ordered the arepa pabellón, which had beef, beans, and plantains. The order seemed small but it was delicious and SO filling. The green garlicky sauce that came with it was perfect. I can't wait to try more off their menu.

    I'm a barista, so I'm always looking for unique morning (all day who are we kidding?) drinks, so…read morewhen I heard Colombino serves cacao, well, buddy, I had to head on over. Heads up, this location in Lawrenceville is a food truck. Not hating on food trucks, but I wish I had known that before going. It was chilly - though being from So Cal I'm usually cold out here. With that out of that way, dang it was good! I normally don't like drinks with flavors that overpower the espresso, but with the mocka latte I had, that's exactly what I wanted. The bittersweet flavor of the cacao shone through, like a indulgent dark chocolate. Haters gonna hate, but dark chocolate is one of the purest forms, and each sip gave me exactly what I was looking for. As for the arepas... Well, I've never had one before, so I don't have a measuring stick for this, but I really liked mine! I had the breakfast arepa with bacon. Scrambled eggs, nice bacon chunks, cheese, a little green sauce, all sandwiched in what I can only describe as like corn flatbread pieces. So good and surprisingly filling! I will probably go to the brick-and-mortar shop next to see how it compares, but if you're in the Lawrenceville area and want a unique pick-me-up, this is a great option.

    After a lovely afternoon for the Lawrenceville cookie walk, had the most delicious empanadas!…read moreOrdered 2 chicken and 1 beef and they were PERFECT in the cold weather. The food truck has 2 outdoor seating igloos so you don't need to worry about snow or rain falling on you while you eat!! And the chimichurri sauce was so good I need it on everything. The service was super kind and the food came out pretty quickly. Check them out next time you're on Butler!

The service is fast, they make it in front of you, and you have the option of picking some stuff up at the grocery store while you are there. Friendly family type ambiance and it feels good to know you are supporting a small business like this. At $4 a taco, when they are generous with the authentic meat filling, double up on the freshly grilled corn tortillas, and allow unlimited toppings made fresh daily make these tacos one of the best deals around. The filling is already super flavorful, so you don't necessarily need extra toppings, but I like adding extra onions and cilantro. For me, a lot of the salsas were extra spicy, so my recommendation is to taste them before putting them on the taco. The ones I got honestly didn't need any extra added flavor. I got the steak and onions and the pork with pineapple and loved them both equally. I got them last week and already miss them - the smell and texture of the meat, the fresh toppings, how your breath tastes after, the combo of everything together - definitely a solid taco joint
