We have two little ones, and they are always so gracious and accommodating. Second, the food is 10000000/10! Wow talk about flavor! Our family's favorite go-to's are the ground beef and cheese empanadas, the kids pabellon, and our ALL time favorite is the arepa llanera fried. WOW!!! So my picky toddler LOVES the food here! Their rice and beans are cooked to perfection and my son who doesn't eat a ton of meat, will eat the shredded beef here! Our favorite thing about the arepa is the sauce they put on the steak with the freshness of the cheese and creaminess of the avocado with the tomato. omg my mouth is watering as I'm typing! We seriously LOVE it here! Those are my recommendations!

I've been eyeing this spot for a while since it's not too far from where i live, and i haven't…read moreexperienced venezuelan food before. upon arrival, i was the only one in the building (but that didn't last for long). the spot is pretty cozy, and they have an upstairs and a patio space outside. i opted to eat inside bc it was super hot outside. i started off with their strawberry margarita. it has such a great flavor. i think they used some type of strawberry syrup or puree, but it was very refreshing. then i went ahead and ordered a side of sweet plantains, the arepa de queso de mano, and the arepa catira. the sweet plantains and the arepa catira were a hit. i didn't expect the arepa to be as filled as it was. i wasn't that big of a fan of the arepa de queso de mano. not sure what i was really expecting, but i would pass on that that next time around. my server was super friendly and was able to suggest a few items. i think the next time, i would be tempted to try one of the plates.

I chose my own and went with power greens and rice, love that you can choose up to 10 toppings, 2 sauces, and your protein. Lots and lots of options. Food was fresh, toppings were good quality and generous and I feel like it was moderately healthy due to the toppings I chose (veggies mostly) and sauce on the side. Order was prompt, fresh, and delicious. Would definitely eat here again.

Had nothing to do for father's day as my parent's were murdered when I was a child and I'm the only…read morechild. I looked for a place that would be open on father's day. Found this place. Stopped by for a burger and a beer to drown in my solitude. Had great service. Prompt, attentive and genuine. Only downside was some pretentious guy named Jeff kept whining about the hostess and the service being "special needs" because he couldn't get his group prompt service under 15 minutes on a special holiday. If it wasn't for some derogative guy whining off the bell about how the service wasn't up to par every couple minutes I'd have enjoyed what would've been quite a depressing day for me. Other than that, burger was damn heavenly. Beer was cold and good. Service was grand. Some people just ruin it for others. Great spot, great burger, good beer and good folks. B.W.

I haven't visited 1608 Crafthouse much, which is a shame because I've always enjoyed their food and…read moreservice. The last time I set foot inside their Pleasure House Rd location was at least 10 years ago. I celebrated my birthday there as my friends were kind enough to take me out. It was a Sunday morning and I sought out a place that offered brunch. I noticed 1608 was open and decided to head over, especially since I haven't visited them in ages. When I walked in, I noticed their dining room is dimly lit - much darker than I remember. I was greeted immediately by a kind hostess and she proceeded to sit me at a nearby table and provided me with menus (one food, one alcohol). I took my time looking over the food menu, and in the meantime I ordered a pint of Center of the Universe's Bald Irishman and a bottle of Boylan's Black Cherry soda (they do not have a soda fountain). What made this visit memorable was that 1608's bartender, Hunter, was an old acquaintance from back in my restaurant days. He spotted me and came over to say hi. After my meal, I continued to catch up with him at the bar. His presence made a pleasant experience even more fantastic. I thought I was hungry, so I ordered 2 dishes - Smoked Ham Fried Rice and the Breakfast Burrito. According to Hunter, every item is made fresh in house. After biting into each, you could tell that's true. Both the fried rice and burrito were delicious and boasted lots of flavor. Although I prefer my fried rice a bit simpler (if you give me just garlic fried rice, I am SET), 1608's fried rice (veggies, garlic, soy, basmati rice, 2 runny eggs, smoked ham) had a lot going on, which made for a flavorful dish. I liked the rice and the burrito (Korean style fried chicken breast, scrambled eggs, cilantro lime, cheddar, pico de gallo) a lot. I didn't finish either because it was a lot of food (I really thought I was hungry, haha). But these leftovers turned into a fantastic dinner later on. 1608 looked clean and organized, although I thought it was a little too dark inside, at least for brunch service. That's not a dealbreaker since everything from the food to the service was as excellent as I remember. I hope to return soon with my mom. Regardless, I'll find my way back eventually. Thank you, 1608 Crafthouse! And great seeing you again, Hunter! JV

IYKYK, just how limited Town Center parking can be on a Saturday. The restaurant was clean and it offers plenty of seating options, which makes it a quaint lunch spot. We found that the Mix & Match Manager's Special option was perfect. Two of us enjoyed the half Caprese Panini sandwich with chips and fresh fruit. The fruit comes with a dipping sauce, but it didn't need it since the fruit was very sweet. My daughter enjoyed her Mix & Match with the half Chicken Caprese Panini sandwich with chips and a cup of chicken noodle soup. We're definitely keeping Jason's Deli on our list of great places to eat!

They earned bonus points from me because the bar also had purse hooks. The staff were super friendly and attentive. Several checked on us or delivered items during our visit. We ordered the meatballs as an appetizer, and a three cheese pizza for lunch. The meatballs were good, they weren't amazing, but they're good. I expected them to be a little larger, but they were hot and had lots of sauce to dip our bread in. The pizza was what we came for, and it did not disappoint. The crust was chewy and a bit charred on the bottom. It was not oily at all. Which I absolutely love. The ingredients were fresh, and it came out in a timely manner. They had a large variety of drinks, but all of them were in cans in a cooler. They also provide a pitcher of water at your table. I really like this place and I would've definitely given them a 5-star rating had they had fountain drinks and larger meatballs. Will be adding them to our rotation!

Much better noodles and broth (of many types) at other local area restaurants. People waiting for seats as we left. Don't see hype. Chances of coming back are slim. Weak weak three.
