Second, after I placed my order, the lady behind the counter must've sneezed 5 times in her hand then proceeded to go to the back and I heard her packaging my food without washing her hands or wearing gloves. Next, I ordered a bunch of food and they only gave me 1 green sauce which is very tiny (probably less than 1 ounce). I asked for another sauce and they tried to charge me an extra dollar for 1 TINY extra sauce LOL I will continue making the drive to Are-Pitas in the temple terrace area.

The menu is Latin food concentrate on Venezuelan. We got the Pernil Cachapas. It is Venezuelan sweet corn with pork shoulder meat. The meat is hand pulled to stuff in the cachapas. It also melt the fresh Venezuelan white cheese. I recommend this dish. The second dish is the Patacon Steak. It look epic when it bring it out. There are two pieces of fried crispy patacon on top and bottom. The inside is grilled steak with cabbage and sauce. I prefer they have less sauce to make is more desirable. Overall is good. Not all the waitress understand English. The price is high for this area of demographics and location of the plaza.

Pros: Small but…read moreclean cafe. The two ladies were helpful in me deciding what to get. The cafe con leche was very smooth and tasty served in a cute cup with their logo. 4/5 The arepa had a lot of meat and had ketchup and some other sauces. It was very flavorful. 4/5 Misc: The arepa part is a lot more crispy than I'm used to. Cons: Even though they're open on Sunday, they close at 3 pm. Also, the arepa "patties" are small relative to the meat/lettuce filling. I kind of wished they were bigger. There was more meat than arepa lol. Overall: a great , mom and pop place to get Venezuelan street food!

They do have pepinos, patacone, cachapa and more. Is is Venezuelan food. Price is at the high side. I got the carne mechada (shredded beef). It look beautiful. The beef is a lot. I also like the fried patacone. It was crispy. The Venezuelan cheese is delicious. The sauce was well made. From order to finish is about 10 minutes. I don't mind the wait to get the freshly fried patacone.

2nd time at Ricazuelafl and I can definitely say this is awesome!! So happy to have them so close…read moreto home. This time we tried their arepa with pork and ordered the sweet plantain patacon with beef. Both are great and generously filled. When we are back, we will definitely have to get our own sweet plantain patacon with beef. No more sharing lol! I really want to try their guava pina and their mango hot sauce, but haven't gotten a chance to yet. I bet that's great on their arepa. I think their arepa burger would also be a great treat to try next time. This is the place to go for their arepas, cachapas, patacones, empanadas. If you are not familiar with these dishes, check my pics. Everyone is friendly and helpful!!!

We hit up Latin Twist before going to see Kings of Leon at Benchmark Arena…read more As always the food was wonderful!!!! Great service too! The restaurant is always clean and everyone is warm and inviting. I can't rave enough about the food. I have tried a bunch of different dishes but the pulled pork, yellow rice and red beans, yucca with onions is my favorite. I am not sure that it's 100% authentic but there are always Spanish speaking customers, that tells me something. The dessert, the cake that is in milk, sorry forgot the name was sooo good. No wait and you get tons of food! The prices are so reasonable I feel like they understand charge. See you again soon Latin Twist!

Lucky for us, this was next door to the place we found on Yelp to stop in for a quick snack…read more Decided to share a Cuban sandwich. Toasted bread, hot, flavorful and juicy meat, crisp pickles, melted cheese... the best Cuban I've ever had. Very friendly and clean. Also had a beef and chicken empanada.

It's in a stand alone building, right next to a large apartment complex. The turn is very easy to miss on your first visit, even with GPS. But once you've been there, you'll never miss it again. Your tastebuds will lead you home. When I got there, early on a Thursday morning, the place was humming. There are no tables or booths-it's take out only... and people were whizzing in-then whizzing out with big boxes or bags. That was a very good sign. But soon, I didn't notice the other people (cue the music montage)... I was mesmerized-transfixed, even... by all the goodies. Everything from delicate coconut pastries to corn casserole to fruit tarts/tortes, to chicken empanadas, to fancy cakes to big, puffy/fluffy cheese loaves... all beautifully displayed and labeled. It was a feast for the senses. I couldn't stop taking photos! I also couldn't decide what to get, but finally blurted out something about the corn casserole and quickly added the coconut cocada and pan bolo (guava). I am happy to report that everything tasted as good as it looked. As the 80s ballad declared: "the search is over"... I have found my favorite bakery, I love that it has both sweet and savory items. I will be back again and again. But not just for the food. It's the service! The woman helping me was absolutely delightful. She was warm and friendly and helpful and full of good suggestions. She was sunshine. That's something you can't put in a display case or add to a recipe.. Ricopan, you're a star! I'll be back! P.s. private parking lot-fair prices-very clean and they also sell coffee-maybe other drinks, too.
