    Venezuelan Hot Dog

    The Venezuelan hot dogs were disgusting. Use to be good back when they first open this location in fry and clay. I believe the coleslaw old and left in the freezer premade for days. And to top it off they didn't have hot sauce made.

    Run ‍ as fast as you can to El Patio at Mason while it's still a soft opening/ the beginning because once everyone gets a taste it's gonna be the best spot in Katy. Adult entrees are from El Kourmet tons of value for the price! I could've eaten a basket of just the tequenos. Lots of vegetarian options and tons of variety through El Patio. The spot is very clean, kids love the playground, music is family friendly. -- at El Patio at Mason.

    Pabellon empanada

    I swear I find the coolest places. What can I say?... it's a gift! This small Venezuelan restaurant is one for the books! I wanted to pick up dinner since the weather has been crappy lately. I was just about to order an arepa but I had to go for something I have never heard of before to see what it was all about... The chicken Pepito it was!!! There was another option for the mixed Pepito.. sounded good but had a yen for chicken. I also ordered their Pabellon empanada.. WOW!! Crispy and warm on the outside.. hot and fresh on the inside. The flavors were amazing as well. The cream sauce that they give you on the side gives it that extra kick. A negative about the pepito is (and I can't believe om saying this) there was way too much Mayo and cream sauce on the sandwich. Made me feel a little sick there was so much.. over powered the sandwich and couldn't finish it. The flavor of the chicken with the crispy French fry sticks were awesome.. definitely wish there was another spicy sauce or some other sort of veggie that could have been on the sandwich to balance the Pepito out. Next time I am definitely getting the arepa!

    If you are in the Katy area aka Katyzuela, The Kourmet it's your place to go for Venezuelan and South American food, they are well known for their burgers, chicken or beef, they are savory, juicy and they come in a pretty good size, Tequeños (cheese fingers) are a must try, the cachapas with cheese (sweet corn pancake) are sweet and tender, you can have them with chicken, pork, shredded beef or plain, anyway you have it you can go wrong with it. Their arepas are the bomb chicken and avocado, beef, pork or ham & cheese, the environment is laid back with a tropical vibe, and what I like the most it's their awesome costumer service, really nice young people that is there to give their clients their best smile and attitude. That's why I'm giving them 5 stars for food, cleanliness and service.

    I've only dined here once, recently. I got my food to go. The staff was friendly and the wait wasn't too long. The food was good, I would return.

    Patacon

    I frequently visit the nail salon next door and decided to look up their menu online and they have one of my top 5 favorite foods. Arepas!!! I came here with one mission and failed lol. Upon walking in it smelled like sewer, but it still looked clean so I proceeded to order. I got a Patacon. I'd never heard or had one before. It's pretty much a sandwich but they used smashed ripe plantains and fried them, then used them as the bread. I chose the chicken patacon which also had ham. I dined at home but it was still hot by the time I got there. It was so good and sloppy just like a sandwich should be. There was so much in it that I couldn't pick it up and bite. This is not a complaint. I just grabbed a knife and fork to ensure that I got a little of everything with each bite. Next time I'll try really hard to get the Arepas. I hope they are just as good

    Delicious food from Venezuela. The place is inside of a grocery store where you can also buy Venezuelan products.
