I ordered two pabellon empanadas which I could barely finish because they were completely filled with extremely tasty pabellon.

Food and drinks- super spot on. The carpaccio is definitely one of the stars on their menu. The…read moremeat is is tender, fresh, and topped with aged Parmesan and truffle oil. Must try if you come here. For the main dish, We tried their branzino which was also very flavorful and surprisingly moist for being cooked directly on fire. Drinks- well made, balanced, and half off on happy hour :) Service- attentive, friendly and accommodating. The venue is brand new and decorated nicely inside. Great for any special occasion.

A fantastic experience every time I visit. Excellent service and delicious food…read more Service is great. Marioxi was very kind and helped us with our menu selections. Great recommendations and very attentive. Food is delicious. The sancocho was made just right and the tostones de picana were fantastic. The ceviche is one of my favorites in all of Miami. I always order it and it never disappoints. They offer great lunch specials that include an appetizer, main course, and dessert. They also have a kids' menu with lots of great options. My daughter loves the chicken nuggets and seasoned fries. The atmosphere is very welcoming, and the staff is attentive from the moment you walk in until you leave the restaurant. It is usually busy so if you can make reservations. Definitely a great place to take the family. Every time we go, the service is excellent, and the food is always delicious. I highly recommend it.

My favorite restaurant during my Florida trip. I made reservation a little before dinner time and…read morewas surprised it wasn't busier considering the glowing reviews. Guess we came at a good time cause later we did see more people come in. For starters, the staff here were all so professional and welcoming. Shoutout to MARIA for being the sweetest! Great recommendations from her. I loved the food so much. Mix ceviche -- so refreshing and loved the variety Jalea Bocas house (fried shrimp, fried fish, fried yuca fries) -- a little bit of everything and fried perfectly. Paired with the sauces. Skirt and fettuccine -- cooked as I requested (medium). Packed with flavor. SO FREAKING GOOD. Arroz cremoso de aji Amarillo with lomo saltado -- unique dish that worked so well. Recommend! Spicy margarita -- best drink here. Mezcal mule -- my mom and I didn't really like it because it was too smoky. Maria was kind enough to swap it out for us with another spicy margarita and didn't charge for the mezcal mule. Love the ambiance. They have daily promos on some of their items so be sure to check it out. I highly recommend this spot. 10/10

Food is amazing, service great but this location does not have the all you can eat deal. Came a 2nd…read moretime to try it and was told the other location is that serves the all you can eat was bummed out for that but still ordered the parilla for 2 and it was just as good as the 1st time. Will be a constant visitor,very good tasty food. One fail for me would be to make it be known they don't do ayce here. I know alot of people probably have gone to try out all the foods.

Had a great Mother's Day dinner here with my family. First off, thank God it wasn't an absolute…read moremadhouse considering the holiday. From the moment we walked in, the customer service was excellent. The host and wait staff paid attention to every little detail and made us feel genuinely welcomed. To start, I ordered the cachapa and the lomo saltado empanada, and both were incredible. The empanada especially was packed with flavor. My wife had the bandeja paisa bowl, and I went with the risotto lomo saltado. That dish almost put me to sleep in the best way possible. Comfort food level 100. We had to finish the night with one of their coffees, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Big shoutout to our server Elvis, who guided us through the menu and gave great recommendations. Usually menus with influences from so many different cultures can feel all over the place, but Luka somehow pulls it off perfectly. They're not just trying to do a little bit of everything. They truly feel like masters of it all. Definitely coming back.

Hoy visité Luka Restaurant por primera vez y me quedé completamente sin palabras…read more No soy ni colombiana ni venezolana, y precisamente por eso mi experiencia tiene tanto valor: no necesité que esos sabores fueran los de mi infancia para que me conquistaran por completo. Cada plato que probé fue una obra maestra -- la variedad, la sazón, la perfección en cada detalle. Una comida que trasciende fronteras y nacionalidades. En más de dos décadas viviendo aquí, jamás había comido algo tan auténtico, tan bien ejecutado, sin poder hacerle una sola crítica. Ni una. Hasta el café fue impecable. El lugar es hermoso, la atención cálida y genuina, y se siente el amor y la dedicación detrás de cada cosa que sirven. La buena comida no necesita que seas de un país específico para tocarte el corazón, solo necesita estar hecha con alma. Y en Luka, el alma se siente desde el primer bocado hasta el último sorbo de café. ¡Volveré sin duda!

Looking for a quick place to grab a bite with our dog. Found Pepito's, with outside seating…read more At first is a bit confusing, because it's connected to a gas station and a coffee shop, but park on the back and you will find the entrance. You go in, place your order, and wait to be called to pick up. They have speakers outside so you can grab a table while you wait. The menu is very latin, cachapas, arepas, chicharron, tacos, tostones... but they also have burgers and hotdogs. I had the Cheese Cachapa with chicken, and chicharron. The Chicharron was perfectly fried and, and the cachapa was delicious, especially with the nata sauce. Portions are generous so we had leftovers. Service is informal, don't expect a warm and friendly welcome, think more fast-food personality, but they get the job done. So, a great place for a quick stop with good food.

We were in Doral for the morning and had our dog along. With a bit of searching I found this place…read morethat looked like it had plenty of character, and good food. Pepito's. The outside area to eat was perfect. When we arrived we got a table in the shade and took turns watching the dog and going in to order lunch. I walked into a place that just was Doral. Or as the side of their delivery van said, "Doralzuela". It was a good think my Spanish is passable, ordering was all in Spanish. I got the special hotdog, and the arepa con queso. My gal got the chicharron and cachapa de queso y pollo. The latter was the overall winner. The cachapa was excellent, but so was the layered hotdog and the chicharron was exceptional. The price was great and the food was so good and so Miami, perfecto. This is a spot you wanna put on your must list.

Cheesy Corny Deliciousness Done Right!!!…read more We suggested to come and try this place by some Venezuelan friends and it did not disappoint. First of all it's a food truck and in fact it's two in one kind of spot. They have one truck for Cachapas and other Venezuelan items and then the have a Pizza truck. Tables are outside which for this cool Miami night was perfect. Wife ordered a regular Cachapa and I ordered the Patacon with Maduro as the plantain style. The kids had cheese pizza and we also ordered some tequenos and empanadas. Everything was really good but the star was the Cachapa. Is was simple yet perfect. The cheese had the right thickness but yet pull. The cachapa corn flavor was on point and even the crema was smooth and delicious. The Patacon was truly not too far behind. I ordered it with Chicken and it was moist and it also had a thick slice of cheese. With the Maduro style patacon it was the perfect sweet and salty combo that I love. Service was super quick and very friendly. They have plenty of seating. I would say the capacity is around 20 or so people and there was a line to sit. We fortunately got there before the line. Which just tells you they are doing something good here. Overall highly recommend Frank Cachapas and worth a drive to Doral to try it out.

Every time I make my way to Doral, my cravings towards Venezuelan food begin to spark up. Today I…read moredecided to treat myself to cachapa and what better place to get one from than Frank Cachapas! I arrived as soon as they opened around 7 pm and ordered the original styled cachapa -- I believe it's number 9 on the menu. For $10 I got a nice portion of a freshly made cachapa that was delicious and my favorite part of it was that it wasn't greasy at all -- the cheese was so good, queso de mano and it was super filling! I will say the nata that goes on top was too buttery for my taste, I like it when it's the creamy nata flavor. But overall, you can't go wrong with this food truck, it's definitely a Doral gem! They're open till 12 am so this is the perfect late night treat and the service was great! Everyone was sweet and helpful. Can't wait to make my way back next time im around the area.
