The menu is Latin food concentrate on Venezuelan. We got the Pernil Cachapas. It is Venezuelan sweet corn with pork shoulder meat. The meat is hand pulled to stuff in the cachapas. It also melt the fresh Venezuelan white cheese. I recommend this dish. The second dish is the Patacon Steak. It look epic when it bring it out. There are two pieces of fried crispy patacon on top and bottom. The inside is grilled steak with cabbage and sauce. I prefer they have less sauce to make is more desirable. Overall is good. Not all the waitress understand English. The price is high for this area of demographics and location of the plaza.

Pros: Small but…read moreclean cafe. The two ladies were helpful in me deciding what to get. The cafe con leche was very smooth and tasty served in a cute cup with their logo. 4/5 The arepa had a lot of meat and had ketchup and some other sauces. It was very flavorful. 4/5 Misc: The arepa part is a lot more crispy than I'm used to. Cons: Even though they're open on Sunday, they close at 3 pm. Also, the arepa "patties" are small relative to the meat/lettuce filling. I kind of wished they were bigger. There was more meat than arepa lol. Overall: a great , mom and pop place to get Venezuelan street food!

We were surprised to see that it was a food truck but that was not an issue. We ordered the salchipapa urbano, which is crispy crinkle fries covered with cheese, sausage, steak, chicken, bacon crumbles, corn and pink sauce. We waited about 10-15 minutes and it was 100% worth the trip and the wait. It was fresh and delicious! We would absolutely go out of our way to go here again and would suggest you give them a try too! They have plenty of other options and we can't wait to try more of them!

Demanding my phone number in so many words in a tone that is unacceptable when dealing with the public. I had to tell him no three times. He was trying to convince me to give him my phone number so he can prove the transaction is legit? I politely declined 3 times. The man was huffing and puffing, Like an angry bull who didn't get his way. If it wasn't for the lady stepping in and saying it's okay, who knows where the situation would have went. I hope that he changes his ways and deals with whatever he needs too. When I returned to get my food he handed to me my food without saying a word. As I walked off he speaks out, have a good day. I was convinced that he was going to take it to a different level if I would respond negatively. So I just walked off. I knew that I needed to do a review in hopes that something would change here. I was willing to let it go. But when he didn't say thank you for coming or anything. I knew for a fact that this man is just not someone at this present time that should be dealing with the public. He needs to be retrained. I really hope he doesn't sink the business because the lady is really sweet.

Welcoming. bright, clean (Ohmygosh, it's spotless in there), with so many nods to Cuba in the decor-and of course, the menu. I didn't study the options before dropping in on a whim, so I'm sure had a deer in the headlights look as I studied the large menu. The kind man at the counter told me the whole menu was available all day. That's excellent-but uh oh, more choices! After going round and round, I settled on a bacon, egg and cheese pressed sandwich -and got it on Cuban toast-which is always good, everywhere you go-but this was especially yum. (that crunch-the butttery ripples running through it. Ohhh my) I wish I could have stayed and enjoyed it there-the couches were so comfy! But I had to take it with me. No worries, tho'. This huge (and I mean HUGE) and perfectly wrapped sandwich stayed warm all the way home. The bacon and egg were both so well cooked-I'll get it without cheese next time. Those are words I've never typed before-but the bread, bacon and egg need all the spotlight. They're sublime. I thought this sandwich was a great value, considering the size and quality. I liked the cheerful interior. There's plenty of parking. And the location sits along Bruce B Downs in New Tampa-right at the foot of the on-ramps to I-75 north and south. It couldn't be any more convenient. They have a reward program and a coffee menu that so many with love. I'll spin back up there and dine in next time. There's lots of great space to chill out and enjoy.
