Fairly basic on the inside with dark wooden tables and not much light. That said it was cozy and we were very comfortable. The meals are very large. My wife ordered Picada Reina Lucero, which had several varieties of meat, white cheese, tartar sauce on top and two sides of other sauces, one a chunky green sauce and a smooth white sauce that mostly tasted like salty butter. The meat was piled on top of fried arepas. My BIL ordered a half chicken and an empanada with pork. The empanada was large and the pork filling was delicious. The chicken was flavorful and cooked perfectly. I ordered the De La Casa Arepones with shredded beef. Ham, cheese and sauce were served along with the delicious shredded beef. This is the only item we ordered that could be considered as a single serving, but even at that it was a lot of food. If I'm in the area I will not hesitate to stop in again and explore more of their menu.

They are huge, one could feed 3 people. I had the chriozo, but it was like hillshire smoked sausage. I would say get the chicken with smoked meats and fried pork. Pass on the Tostones, they were not fried, they were baked and very dry so pass on those. Place has a cool vibe, and decor. You can bring a marker and write on the wall.

The owners are Colombian and Venezuelan, and know their cooking well. This is as authentic as you can get for Colombian and Venezuelan cuisine. This time I ordered the small mondongo soup with rice. What is Mondongo? Beef stomach lining, Spanish might call it callos, British would call it Tripe, Mexicans might call it menudo. Same ingredient but much lighter and flavorful. Very satisfying when the days are cold. The tequeños are the Venezuelan version of fried mozzarela sticks, some claim them as the "entry drug" to Venezuelan cuisine. I think they have a point. A sign the food is authentic- look around at the other restaurant patrons.

The fried-dough wrapping around the cheese was light and crispy...and the two dipping sauces were a nice compliment - the garlic one was my preference. For the arepas, I tried 4 - peluda, asada, pulled pork, and a veggie/avocado one. All were great. Tortilla has nice level of texture and "chew." The flavors of each meat were good enough to stand on their own, but I still dipped away at the sauces :) Good prices, good food, and good service. A worthy stop to break away from the chain restaurants and support something local.

The cashier was super friendly (which was a refreshing change from the not so friendly cashier at another vendor) so I actually broke my no tipping policy I less you're a server and left a buck or two. For ambiance, it's the mall. The mall food court in particular. It's reminiscent of adolescence and clean and tidy, so no complaints. I'll be back to this mall just to eat here. Please branch out!!

I said maybe not but the cashier suggested I order the mini arepas instead, which I did. Once I ordered I waited a bit probably around 10-15 minutes before I got the avocado chicken arepas. I thought the corn shell tasted a little off. The chicken was mixed in with the avocado and it was more bland than I would have hoped. So although the mini arepas came with a good amount of food, I'm not sure about the dish I got. Maybe I should have waited for the arepas but I do think the fillings would have been similar. It came with some garlic sauce that was pretty good though.
