We came here since my BIL was visiting with his Venezuelan gf and it was her first time in Connecticut. They live in Georgia and there are no Venezuelan establishments there so we decided to try this place out. The restaurant was small and the interior had an odd smell so we opted to sit outside. We ordered some cocktails and they were pretty good. Overall decent place for drinks but probably wouldn't return since we weren't impressed either.
Best spot in Norwalk for Venezuelan food! The food is always on point, their pepito is delicious and they have a variety of juices/sodas you can choose from. Their customer service is excellent. 10/10.
I embraced the beauty of the sunny day by sitting outside! I savored the shrimp accompanied by tostones, a refreshing salad, and white rice. The experience was delightful, and I recommend this wonderful restaurant!
I love this place! It is so welcoming, and the food is outstanding! Definitely get the yuca fries and the beef arepas! The arepas are perfect so tasty, i prefer grilled and it gives the best foundation for their very flavorful meat. The shredded chicken one is great.
My friend and I ventured about one hour away from home to have brunch here. We've been following them on social media for a little while, and finally decided to make the drive. There might be street parking, but it's in a busier area, however, there is a larger lot behind the business. I'm not sure what the charge is, but since it was a Sunday, it was free. The indoors is on the smaller side, but is nice. There are many decorations and it is very colorful and happy in there. We decided to sit in their outdoor eating area. I liked it, but the chairs were very uncomfortable. The menu is pretty expansive. I ordered the Vegana (black beans, sweet plantains and avocado), and my friend ordered the Americana (bacon, egg, cheese). We split these two. They were very good and pretty filling! For dessert, we shared an order of mini arepas, served with cream and cheese. Overall, I highly recommend this spot for a bite. The arepas we tried were delicious, the service was excellent and the prices very reasonable. I might not come here often, but would recommend anyone in the area to visit.
Driving an hour away was so worth it! I wanted all If the stuffed Arepas because they all sounded amazing!! We went on a Sunday early enough for brunch. Sat outside, grabbed coffee and it was perfect. My friend and I decided we would split our Arepas of our choice so we can try half and half. We decided to try Arepa Vegana which had black bean, avocado and sweet plantains and The Americana Arepa which was more of a breakfast Arepa. Bacon, egg and cheese. Also, you have the option of having them fried or grilled so we did one and one. They both hit the spot! So good! We didn't get enough of our arepa fix so we got mini arepas fritas but the sweet ones. It came with a side of shredded cheese and cream to dip in. A day later snd im still thinking of Arepas! Stuffed arepas! The staff was so Pleasant, friendly! The owner came out and he was very nice as well! Everyone was! We had made reservations for 11 but when we got there it wasn't needed. However it sure picked up and got pretty busy afterwards. So I suggest making them just Incase! There is street parking and there is a big lot in the back of the restaurant that is public. There is meters but it depends which day you go and time . Sunday is free ! The restaurant itself has enough tables , it's clean , and inviting. I must say though those chairs outside are not the most comfortable. But it was nice to sit and have breakfast outdoors. It's in a busy strip along with other businesses and restaurants. I'll be back!
I've been to this restaurant several times and it has always been good. I loooove their arepas. Today I decided to branch out and try something new. While I didn't like what I got this time around nearly as much as the arepas it was still fun and I'd definitely be willing to branch out and explore the rest of their menu. What we got: Cachapa Con Queso Y Jamon - 4* nice and savory. I was quite content with my choice and was very full by the time I was done. At first I was surprised there was only half when compared with what my partner got, but that's how it's supposed to be and boy was it enough. Cachapa La Calle 4 Quesos - 3.5* this was also very good, though a bit more bland. There is a lot of cheese with this one and it is BIG. It's like the big brother cachapa, hence it being double the size compared to the others. We definitely took half of this home and will probably spruce it up with egg, bacon, and/or beans when we eat it as leftovers.
Visited this place while being around the area and looking for something different. If you are familiar with Venezuelan food, this is your spot. If you are not, definitely give it a try. The place has tables outside and inside and the staff is super friendly. We ended up eating arepas and cachapas. We try Venezuelan food all over the country, and this place really compares. Although this place doesn't fill the arepas to a crazy degree where the ingredients are falling out. It is the right amount and is pretty flavorful. The cachapas needed to be a little sweeter for my taste but still a quality cachapa. Overall, this is a "to go" spot on my list while navigating Norwalk. Prices are between $12 and $14. This seems fairly priced as this is more of a sit down restaurant than a regular arepa joint.
You had me at arepas! This place definitely brought me home especially because in this area there aren't many Venezuelan spots and it's so hard to get your tequeño fix. I love was so happy with the drink selection you can get frescolita, tamarind juice, panela and even chicha! Literally transporting back to Venezuela right now. Food wise there are so many options: tequeños, arepas, empanadas, cachapas, pabellon, patacones and more! I have to say the tequeños were a huge let down. The cheese is definitely not the right one and almost melts right in the dough. The arepas were delicious as well as the cachapas. Again. I felt like I got a little fix from home but not fully fully authentic. Like I said, just happy to have a place like this in the area! Wish they also sold mandocas. The arepa vegana is was to die for. The black beans are the best ever!!!!!!!!!!! And the sweet plantain touch was just amazing. Other than that such a great little spot to come to. Small outside seating area and plenty of indoor space. Great people and great food!
This is one of my favorite places in Norwalk. Hits every time. Checks every box. Good if you know Spanish but not required. The sifrina arepa is my favorite, but they're truly all perfectly done. I usually get two arepas because I'm a glutton but one will absolutely satisfy. Truly wish I still lived in the area but so glad there still here for me to visit!
Small hole in the wall of a very busy street parking is in front of street or in back by a shopping plaza. Coworker and myself picked up take out which wasnt ready when we originally told. The shredded beef was a bit dry but the rice and beans were good. The sandwich of carne asap had very flavorful beef that was juicy and paired well w the bacon, egg and cheese. Sitting and eating at the restaurant maybe a better option instead of take out as our meals were a bit cold. They do take credit cards
The BEST in the game !!!! This is literally the best spot in Norwalk!!!!! Arepas are next level and the drinks are fabulous.
This restaurant is my favorite to go to when in town. The Patacon Pollo Mechado will make you want to come back for more. Fresh amazing authentic flavoring and great size portion. I come here every year when in town getting a tattoo and the food consistently stay authentic and the service is always friendly and amazing. Great for family individuals and groups. Very nice atmosphere with wonderful music. Extremely clean

Very fast service, although a little bit of pressure to order. I asked the waitress what her favorite was and she recommended the steak and cheese arepa fried. I also did the shredded beef and plantain and beans grilled. Steak and cheese arepa was the star, so crispy, juicy steak, cheese seared. I could eat it dinner every time. The other arepa was decent, it just had the mistake of going second, shredded beef felt slightly dry. It was al little pricier than expected, the steak was 14 and the shredded beef was 11. Will be back to try other dishes! read more

I cannot wait to come back. The food was so fresh and delicious. I didn't take photos of the other food we bought because I just had to eat it once placed in front of me. The servers were also kind and attentive. read more

The desayuno was banging and I highly recommend the Guaurapita (guava juice and aguardiente). Service was quick and the place is no frills. Just good food and good cocktails. read more
As a newbie to Venezuelan cuisine and arepas, this place offers options for every taste and staff is helpful in making suggestions. Staff was friendly and attentive. We started off our meal with their Parchita (passion fruit juice) which was delicious, in fact I might try to get a gallon to go next time we go. Our appetizers were the arepita dulce Crema y Queso (sweet fried arepas with cream and white soft cheese) and Empanadas (shredded chicken, shredded beef and cheese). My friend and I found these apps to both be tasty and a perfect start to our meal. Both were crispy from being fried but not heavy in any way. We decided to try 4 different arepas to share, the catira (shredded chicken with Gouda cheese), Peluda (shredded beef and Gouda cheese), Pabellon (shredded beef, black beans, fried sweet plantains, and shredded soft white cheese) and the reina Pepeada (shredded chicken and avocado). We tried both fried and grilled among these four and interestingly enough my friend who doesn't eat at lot of fried stuff preferred the fried as it wasn't heavy and I preferred the grilled as I found it to be a refreshing compliment to the quality ingredients. We loved all the ones that we tried but our favorites were the Reina Pepeada, which was truly unique and refreshing and the Pabellon, which had a truly complexed and balanced flavor. I couldn't leave without trying dessert especially after hearing that they are made by the owner's mother. Our Beinmesabe ( Venezuelan coconut cream cake) was the perfect end to our meal. It was light, fluffy and filled with coconut flavor. Might order and take this cake to go next time. Pricing is incredibly reasonable for the quality of the food and portion size especially with sharing app. We will definitely be back to this restaurant very soon and can't wait to try more things on the menu especially the burgers! read more

My friend Giorgie (who is Venezuelan)showed me this cute Venezuelan spot almost a year ago! I had never even had an arepa before but it's definitely a life changer! Ever since, I have gone back multiple times. The atmosphere is fun & traditional & the owner is so warm & welcoming. All of the servers are super friendly as well. Since I'm vegan, my go to is the vegana arepa, I do one grilled & one fried, & a side of rice and I really enjoy their fresh juices as well! A few weeks ago, the owner asked my boyfriend to come try their new Sea-ngria drink! WOW! That is one GORGEOUS drink & it tastes just as good as it looks! You could probably get so drunk off of it without knowing because it tastes so good! We also took another one of our Venezuelan friends here and he really enjoyed it, so that is HOW YOU KNOW!!! If TWO Venezuelans have approved it, you will LOVE IT just like how we LOVE it! read more

Not sure how anyone can give this place less than a four star reView! The food was amazing and authentic. The flavors were bold and so good! I ate the vegan arepa, it is nice to know that they cater to various diets. My husband at the Calle burger and it was jam packed with meat, worth every penny! The cilantro sauce that you can squeeze into your food is ten star!!! If you're in the SoNo area you have to come try this place, you won't regret it! read more

Watch out Valencia's there is some competition in the area and they are absolutely delicious. I came here with a coworker on a hot day. The staff was super friendly and tended to us at all times. We had great appetizers such as the empanadas and the avocado chicken dip. We both ordered the carne arepa and it was delicious!! We will be back. P.S. don't get overwhelmed by the menu, it's extensive, I know! read more

Having just moved to CT, we had to find all the Venezuelan spots. After a little searching, this one stood out and appeared to have a huge buzz. Having been there 3 days, we wasted no time and paid a visit. The menu is diverse; has all the classic Venezuelan staples including both traditional and creative arepas, Venezuelan national dishes and a variety of traditional drinks. Authentic culture, cool atmosphere and a very welcoming and visible owner, you can tell they take great pride in their business making the experience even better. The portions are generous, the flavors are fantastic and after 3 consequent visits, I have yet to try something that isn't perfectly prepared. Having lived in Miami for 2 years and with a Venezuelan fiancé, we know our Venezuelan food and La Calle is fantastic. Highly recommended and will be a staple for us as long as we live here. read more

The arepas with the 5 sides is the way to go. The pernil is like butter! I can't wait to come back. The waitresses were super nice too!! read more

I had the camarones al aji. I didn't care for the sauce so I only ate my salad. The strawberry margarita was good but I couldn't finished it. I gave this place a 3 star because they automatically added 18% gratuity without letting us know before hand and also it's not stated anywhere on the menu or in the restaurant. This is a big disappointment to me only because my service wasn't an 18% gratuity kind of service but a 15%. It was not exceptional in anyway. what's worse is that they highlighted , showing us that they did that. Tacky. Will never go back again. Thank la Calle for the first time experience. read more

If you're looking for authentic Venezuelan food, this is the place to go! The food was amazing. I went with a group of 7 and the service was on point. We had arepas, arroz con pollo, the La Calle burger, chorizo, and several other dishes. Every one was fantastic and cooked to perfection. The owner, Javier was so welcoming and made great recommendations since it was my first time having Venezuelan food. I will definitely be back! Thank you for an amazing experience La Calle!
