I've been a long time customer for maybe about 5 years now and I ordered a chicken cheeseqilla $14,…read moreand nachos de bistec $15 which adds up to 29 with taxes the order is 30.40 which he verbalized to me on the phone for pick up. I get there and I pick up the food for 30.40 and then I add 2 Jarritos $2.75 each for a total of $5.50. That brings the total order value to $35.90. I hand the man a $50 bill and he only gives me back $10 dollars. He pretty much tried to scam me for $6 dollars cash no debit or Apple Pay. I then tell him "Sir, you told me 30.40 for the food and then 3 dollars each soda is 6 so a total of 36.40. Why did you only give me a 10 back" he said that was the correct change and then proceeded to print out a receipt that doesn't even match what I ordered. He created a new order with added items to increase the price. Long story short, they try to scam you of your money in there whe you pay with Apple Pay or cash. Make sure you add everything up and check it. This is now the 3 time these people have tried to play with the amount of money I get back or charged. If you eat here, watch your money and your change!

(To put it into perspective, this place is 6 minute by car and 17 minute walking from my work place) My order came out to ~62 plus tip! 1. steak... and more onions came than steak. 2. tacos americanos (2 x $12): one with pork and other with steak. The pork was perfect but steak was overcooked. 3. Burritos ($10.50): worth the money. Inside with rice, bean and meat of your choice. Comes with side of pico, guac and lettuce. 4. Salad ($8.50): shredded lettuce with cilantro, tomato, cucumber, avocado, and queso blanco.

It was a busy Thursday afternoon visiting an old favorite. We sat at the counter space and…read morepatiently waited for 1 of the women to serve us. It was very busy, but they can keep up well. Very pleasant we ordered from the variety of pre made food and one order from the kitchen only menu. We tried the roasted chicken with rice and red beans, 2 chicken Empanadas, and 1 order of fried pork chops with green plaintain (chuleta frita con tostones). Took about 10 minutes to come out, and it was very fresh and delicious. The chops were well seasoned and crispy. The tostones were freshly made and crispy. I put a ton of their homemade mojito (garlic) sauce all over everything, and my son proceeded to follow me with his meal. Their chicken was roasted perfectly. Moist and tender with flavors. They have a huge rotisserie pit behind the wall and out the way to save space. Genius. The Rice and beans were standard yet authentic. The Empanadas were a little dry, but I had to show my eldest about ketchu-mayo lol iykyk, then he liked it. He's a bit inexperienced in the cuchifrito area and almost got a brand drink. I had to cut him off and direct him to the fountain drinks because ,uh-uh, we drink from the house in a great cuchifrito spot son! I got him the passion fruit, and I got my usual sesame seed. He looked at me crazy y'all lmao I let him try my sesame drink, and he was somewhat impressed with it. But he loved his passion fruit already. The service was attentive, and I honestly don't know how the ladies balance it all. He was pleasantly surprised at the bill $32. 2 full large meals, 2 drinks, 2 Empanadas, and 1 alcapurria because I had to grab one when I saw the cook dump a fresh batch. I went home thinking damn I should have grabbed 3 more. They were loading fresh cuchifritos and I shouldn't have held back. Later always comes and left overs are always welcomed. Overall, we both loved it. Even taught him a few things in there. For the culture and the price point he loved it even more. I know for sure we will be back.

The chicken pastelitos comes with two and the filling is juicy and flavorful comes with a cabbage slaw and tomato sauce, again they followed my directions and put the sauce on the side - I also ordered the chicken soup and requested it be spicy and guess what it was! It came with rice & didn't disappoint, the only thing I didn't like was the pupusa de chicharrones y queso idk it was just super dry I've had wayyy better pupusas in sunnyside. Tonight I ordered via uber eats again but this time I ordered the frijole y chicharrones soup it's supposed to come with tortilla and rice I requested it "a little spicy if possible" cause last time the chicken soup was really really spicy, again the followed my instructions it's just the right amount of heat it was made to order a lot of chicharrón in the soup the flavor is on pint maybe could've been seasoned a little more it's giving stew peas u can most definitely taste the bean flavor in that broth, it came with white rice and a 2 handmade tortillas - not sure if they made a mistake or they just threw in a pescado frito - it was tied to my other bag - I took a small taste and I've had better and those plátanos are disgusting -

The restaurant is gigantic and there were plenty of waitresses, waiters and servers going around to ensure great service, loved this from the very beginning!! Our waitress was so nice, so friendly and so caring, I think her name she said was Maribel... she made sure to give us an extra excellent service. Food was delicious, they have a HUGE menu, just like the restaurant. We had guacamole as appetizer and chips + salsa from the house. For entree we shared chilaquiles al pastor, beef tostadas and steak quesadillas and everything was so so so delicious and made with love you could taste it!! Music was popping to be honest, they had a pretty nice playlist of Latin music at first... then around 5-6pm a dj started playing music. I will definitely come back and try some drinks, that also looked interesting and very good by the looks on people drinking. Definitely a must try place!!!

The cheese sticks are a must when you visit. They are perfectly breaded, fried golden, crispy on the outside and melty on the inside. They come out hot, stretchy, and exactly what you want late at night. Their empanadas? Fire. The beef is juicy and packed with flavor, the chicken one is tender and well-seasoned, and that pink sauce... yeah, that sauce is elite. Creamy, tangy, with just enough kick to make you keep dipping until it's gone. I also ordered the chicken cachapa -- soft, slightly sweet corn pancake, stuffed generously and cooked just right. It's comforting, filling, and hits different when you're craving something authentic. Also on a late night on Dyckman, doesn't get better than this. The juices are fresh and refreshing, the perfect balance to everything savory. Service is quick and straight to the point, exactly what you need whether you're grabbing takeout or sliding into one of the small tables to eat in. The spot itself is small and cozy, no-frills, real neighborhood vibes all day. Overall, this is a classic Dyckman late-night Venezuelan staple. Great food, quick service, and flavors that always come through. If you know, you know.
