    The chachapa with beef
    Sarah H.

    We came here mainly for the arepas. We ordered one each of the chicken, pork and beef. I also ordered a chachapa with beef. The chachapa was the best thing we had. The arepas were good, but they needed something more- a veggie or other flavor to add something else. I was keeping an eye on the other food coming out, and there were several other things that looked pretty good. We will be back, and I plan to venture out from the Arepas.

    Soggy bottom bun

    First time trying Venezuelan food & The empanadas are good, the Tequeños were a little bit salty but still good But the burger was not it. They put way too much sauces and they put them at the bottom bun, that by the time you get home it's way too soggy you can even eat it with your hands I had to use a fork. And because of the soggy bun it tasted bad, also the burger meat was not fully cooked

    Y'all I have been SLEEPING on this place. Gonna start this review with a caveat: we do not eat pork so all our items were without ham and bacon. Now to the main items, you will not go wrong with the Kourmet burger. It already comes WITH an egg. How amazing is that?! Next up, my brother tried the chicken pepito. It's a huge sub. Biggest different the burger and the pepito: pepito has cheese and coleslaw. Best part about both: the potato sticks on both added a nice crunch. The only reason I took a star off was because we weren't fans of the pastelito (potato & cheese) or empanada (shredded chicken) - wouldn't get those again. Will I be back? Yes definitely! Burgers were too good not to go back.

    I was a little skeptical of trying this place since we had to take it to go without the option of staying and trying to fresh but the food did not disappoint! The hot dogs were pretty good! I would say I didn't notice too much of a difference in the salchiqueso and regular hot dog, I think it's just the cheese. I ate half a chicken and half a regular Kourmet burger. Both were really good! I preferred the chicken but I'm a big chicken guy. Also tried the empanadas that were a great little appetizer, again preferring the chicken. They looked like they might be a little dry but they weren't at all and they give a sauce on the side you have the choice of using. All employees greet in Spanish and some are able to speak English if you let them know. Other than that it was quick enough and everything was fresh!

    Interesting food truck fare offered by El Kourmet with a Venezuelan flavor. We thought we'd venture out and try something different for dinner. We ordered the El Kourmet signature burger. Didn't like it because the patty was so overcooked it was tough. It was seasoned nicely but that doesn't make up for the dense texture. Added to the El Kourmet is a fried egg, sliced white cheese and what looked like a cheap deli ham slice. Tasted like it too. The fried egg was like plastic and the white cheese didn't have the typical melted quality; it reminded me of rubber. And it was flavorless. Both burgers fell apart via the bun because of the overwhelming amount of the Kourmet sauce added. Couldn't finish this and it's disappointing to have a meal that isn't well prepared. They offer tequeños on the menu. It's a fried breaded cheese--like a pastry on the outside with cheese on the inside. It was okay. It's pretty heavy but I will add that the cheese tasted delicious on the inside. This is one place I wanted to try, did and was just dissatisfied with the food.

    Katy is a town know for a large population of Venezuelans and some call the town "Katyzuela" for this reason . This little food truck is an OUTSTANDING spot for local street fair. Tequenos are like cheese sticks and are a must try. The chicken burger with EVERYTHING on it is also amazing. Everything is cooked fresh to order and well prepared. Come give it a try!

    We came all the way from Miami looking for authentic venezulan food and we found it at el Kourmet! Yellow plantain patacon is the best

    The lady who took my order was not kind at all. They need to work on not making their customers feel unwelcomed.
