However, they were so eager to get started that went ahead and did so with a food truck. This place is right on our daily communte and decided to stop by. It is centrally located in a great spot and easy to find with plenty of free parking. This is a Venezuelan food place with an initially limited menu but really delicious. My wife and I tried the mixed pepito (sub sandwich) and the empanadas. They were really delicious! The service was great and the vibe is truly like a traditional Venezuelan street food place with Latin music in the background (no worries, it's not loud music). Overall, 100% recommended.

I've been to this place a couple of times now because I wanted to give it more than one opportunity…read morebefore writing my review. On my first visit, I tried the Venezuelan hot dog without the quail eggs. The bun was nicely toasted, and the hot dog was packed not only with ingredients but also with great flavor. It was definitely a great hot dog, and I highly recommend trying it. The quail eggs weren't something I personally wanted on mine, but others may enjoy that option. I also tried the mini arepas, which came with beans, chicken salad, and pork. I was actually surprised that the bean arepa ended up being my favorite. It was packed with so much flavor. The chicken salad was okay, but I felt like it could have used a little more seasoning. The pork was really good and seasoned to perfection. I also had their cachapas, which came with fried cheese, steak, and a sweet corn pancake. The steak could have used a little more seasoning, but the sweet corn pancake was amazing. I would highly recommend the food, and their drinks are very good as well. It is a small restaurant, so there is not a ton of space, but it has a great vibe inside. Now, as far as the service, my first visit was amazing. The second time, however, the service was not good. We sat on the patio, and the waitress was very short with us and came across as rude. Overall, I would still recommend checking this place out for the food and drinks, but I do hope the service becomes more consistent because the food is definitely worth trying. He visitado este lugar un par de veces porque quería darle más de una oportunidad antes de escribir mi reseña. En mi primera visita, probé el hot dog venezolano sin los huevos de codorniz. El pan estaba bien tostado, y el hot dog estaba cargado no solo de ingredientes, sino también de mucho sabor. Definitivamente fue un muy buen hot dog, y lo recomiendo mucho. Los huevos de codorniz no eran algo que personalmente quisiera en el mío, pero a otras personas les puede gustar esa opción. También probé las mini arepas, que venían con frijoles, ensalada de pollo y cerdo. Me sorprendió que la arepa de frijoles terminó siendo mi favorita. Tenía muchísimo sabor. La de ensalada de pollo estuvo bien, pero sentí que le faltaba un poco más de sazón. La de cerdo estaba muy buena y perfectamente sazonada. También probé sus cachapas, que venían con queso frito, carne y una panqueca dulce de maíz. La carne pudo haber tenido un poco más de sazón, pero la panqueca dulce de maíz estaba increíble. Recomiendo mucho la comida, y sus bebidas también son muy buenas. Es un restaurante pequeño, así que no hay muchísimo espacio, pero tiene un gran ambiente por dentro. En cuanto al servicio, mi primera visita fue excelente. Sin embargo, la segunda vez el servicio no fue bueno. Nos sentamos en el patio, y la mesera fue muy cortante con nosotros y se sintió un poco grosera. En general, todavía recomiendo visitar este lugar por la comida y las bebidas, pero espero que el servicio sea más consistente, porque la comida definitivamente vale la pena probarla.

Yes, they're sliders but chicken inside on house made mini arepas-- well, yes Arepas Sliders, but believe me they good. Even more, the avocados slices gives you a little different yet healthy feeling. I did caught them at Sycamore on Monday night but got Yuca Fries only as I had dinner plans, you can't still go wrong with them. The only downside of this food truck is that, they don't really have a smaller portion menu or smaller amount menu but the current menu is right on money. I would eat 'em over and over again. Looking forward to more of the Chamo!!!!

Located where the former Moes was in the Pineville Matthews shopping center with Bonefish and Panera. The place looked pretty clean although after ordering my food I noticed the sanitation grade was a 91...yikes. Anyways I went ahead and ate there. So let me start by saying the menu is large, so many different items to chose from and not only Peruvian food. I saw some Colombian and Venezuelan items. With that being said I was very shocked at the lack of standard side items. Literally rice and white rice at that, pinto beans and like one other things. All other sides are considered premium sides and those premium sides would be basic sides at like hello chicken or viva chicken. I got the 1/4 chicken, white meat with reg side of white rice and premium side of plantains. For the dipping sauce I was limited to the yellow mild sauce or the spicy hot sauce. They were all out of the green mild sauce. Just for context I arrived at 11:40, they open at 11. Not sure how they ran out so fast but I would have loved to try it because the yellow sauce was just ok and the red was cold and just spicy no real flavor. Thankfully the chicken was flavorful and juicy, the white rice was white rice and the plantains were cooked beautifully. Also the cashier was great and provided excellent service. All in all, I would visit again but no rush to go back again. Viva Chicken still takes the lead for now for me. I would love them to mature their side menu, increase their sanitation grade and have the green sauce available.
