Arrived for a late lunch, you place your order at the counter and have a seat for it to be delivered. The cashier was very helpful, gave me a couple of recommendations, and I went with Cabimera Picahna. On a bed of deep-fried arepa (a ground maize dough that is deep fried), shredded ham and cheese, boiled egg, cabbage, parmesan cheese, and a few different sauces. This dish is full of flavor, loved the Picahna, and overall absolutely delicious. Initially I thought the arepa was some kind of fried potato...similar flavor and texture but the lady explained how they are made. I could actually eat these as an appetizer with a dipping sauce. Overall...this dish is a repeat with a different protein. I also saw their Picahna burger...definitely something I want to try.

The "queso" was more so just mozzarella cheese. The beef was like a shredded beef and potato mixture. Umm there is NO menu. When I went in and asked for one they said they didn't have one and just listed off chicken, beef and cheese empanadas as options. Even though it says they have a menu with a plethora of options. Also, they charge you for two, you can't just get one empanada.

I asked if there was some type of combo meal, and he simply said, "No." I looked up the menu on Yelp, showed him a photo, and discovered there actually was a sampler that I was able to order. He rang up our order without speaking to us at all and then went to the back to cook the food. When he returned, I asked for sauce. He replied, "Yes," and pointed to the bag. That was the only other time he spoke to us. The entire interaction was bizarre. His demeanor was sullen, and he showed no basic courtesy or customer service. To make matters worse, one of the empanadas was almost empty, which was very disappointing. The food itself was very good, but not nearly good enough to make up for the lack of communication, poor customer service, and the uncomfortable, awkward atmosphere we both experienced throughout our visit.

We had piña juice (pineapple) and the Papelon, well let me tell you, I have never liked papelon growing up but I tried some of it and I was impressed. I really like the hint of lime it has. Very refreshing. I can't have enough of this place, I'm so glad I can find Venezuelan food at a decent price and that it's actually DELICIOUS. They are located on exit 60 of I-24 (Old Hickory Blvd I believe) on the Shell gas station. Parking can be a little tricky on the busy hours as they also have a Mexican restaurant next door but it's definitely worth it. The lady was very nice and attentive. There were a few orders before ours but the food was made fairly fast and it was fresh. They accept cash and credit/debit card payments. I will definitely be coming back here more often to give my soul a taste of the OG home. Come check them out!

There was a Mexican option an a Venezuelan option. I obviously chose the second one. I ordered an arepa and an empanada. The arepa is basically a deep fried sandwich with a meat and cheese on it.

The food was pretty good overall. The wait time was probably about 12 minutes. They do have a covered patio with blaring Latino music. A bit much for me to eat there.
