    A delicious alternative in Rome! Freshly prepared and delicious Latin food with generous portions. Delivered hot!

    We ate here twice while staying in Rome. If you search them on google, they have close to 300 reviews with 4.8 stars. Super friendly service! Everyone here are so nice and welcoming as soon as you walk in. It's a small space but you'll be able to sit down and dine if you want or you can always carry out your food to take it back to your place and eat. Arepas and empanadas are so yummy here. Made to order so it's fresh but it'll take a bit of time to be served after you order. We tried chicken, beef and vegetarian arepas. I personally enjoyed the chicken the best. We also tried chicken, beef and beans & cheese empanadas. I really liked the beans & cheese and my husband liked the beef. Both arepas and empanadas outside layer is crispy crunchy delicious! If you're looking for midday snack or quick bite.... I say try this place out!

    The food was amazing! Go here if you are visiting Rome! You can go to Italy and Venezuela in one day! They are super friendly! 100% recommended.

    Hey. Do your celiac self a favor and eat here. They use peanut oil to fry in as of when I posted this review. My husband and I loved this place so much. We don't have Venezuelan food where we live and that is such a shame. The staff is very kind and it was great to use our Spanish! They do not have a ton of seating so if you're in a large group, it might be better for to grab it to go. But honestly, so delicious.
