I ate mine with a Kola Champagne the perfect combination. My mother had the Cuban sandwich and she said it was really good. Me? I am coming back for another sandwich in a few days. It was that good. I'd return tomorrow but I need to keep my weight down. I just finished most of my tripleta and am already planing my next meal date. This is a must visit place. Ok, so not just visit but stay and eat. You won't regret it. I am sorry I forgot to mention the cost! See my receipt! It was a bargain! The food came out pretty quick.

I can't even remember when was the last time I ate a "pastelito" in US. I'm soo happy a friend…read morerecommended this place! We tried a variety of flavors of pastelitos and they were all so good. We tried carne molida (ground beef), pollo (chicken), mechada con queso (shredded beef and cheese) and pizza. They were all amazing, very flavorful, not too greasy, not too dry, simple perfect texture and size. The empanada was good as well, but definitely the pastelito is their hit. We had different drinks too (Papelón con limón, Parchita (passion fruit), Mango and Toddy (Venezuelan chocolate milk) and they were very well made, they were like a slushy very refreshing and not as thick as a smoothie, more like a frappé, The place was clean, open, had enough seating and the staff were very friendly.

The food size and portions were huge, super flavorful and even better the next day. Our server was good, but probably could've been more attentive. We were traveling with a little and he very much enjoyed the fun atmosphere although he wasn't a fan of the fresh lemonade. A bit too sour for his taste. But our server was very happy to get us something he would enjoy. Overall, this was a fun place for lunch. Solid seven out of 10. Be sure to check it out if you're in the Dr. Phillips area.

We originally went to Dr Phillips to eat at another restaurant but it had a long wait so we decided…read moreto try Bocas Grill nearby instead. It is a Latin American grill restaurant specializing in arepas and, bonus, the World Cup game with Argentina was on all the TVs. I wasn't sure what to get as a lot of items sounded interesting and then my husband noticed the Parrilla Mixta menu items - basically a sampler platter of various items on the menu for people to share. Sold! We got the smallest one, the Parrilla Llanera, and there is also one larger plus a surf and turf with a whole fish and other seafood in addition to the meats. We chose the picanha for our meat and Congri rice as our side. We asked for water to drink and the server brought a flask of water plus limes and lime juice! It was really nice and my husband said he felt like we were sitting outside at a restaurant in Latin America. The whole restaurant was decorated for the World Cup with different flags and soccer balls everywhere. There's also a full bar in the back corner, as well as seating outside. The platter came and it looked amazing. Besides the picanha and grilled chicken, it came with chorizo, mini arepas, guasacaca (a Venezuelan guacamole), and Cachapas (sweet corn pancakes with shredded cheese). Everything was delicious, the meats with a great charcoal grill flavor. Plus, we got chimichurri and a yummy Venezuelan hot sauce too. I would definitely come back to get this dish again.

We decided to take a chance on Mu Restaurant and ordered the Mu burger, pork chicharron, and flan…read more The Mu burger was enjoyable. The chicharron had a great flavor but the "skin" wasn't that crispy and had a chewy texture. The flan wasn't that sweet and had more of a vanilla extract flavor. I didn't care for it. Overall, the food was disappointing. However, the ambiance was very lively and featured live music. The waitress wasn't the greatest. I asked for water, but she gave us a bottle of water instead - which I found out later was $4! It wasn't a fancy brand of water either. I would have appreciated a heads up that there was a cost for water, especially since tap water is usually provided for free at most restaurants. Double check your bill. An automatic 20% tip was added to the receipt (it wasn't disclosed to us), and we were not part of a group.

Went there tonight and it's closed. Parking lot is empty and another restaurant is coming soon.read more

I live close, so have come here quite a bit over the year…read more Pro- Just got renovated, so it looks pretty. The staff is nice, and the food is good. They also have lunch specials, which is nice. Cons- There is ALWAYS a weird perm smell when you go. It literally smells like someone is perming their hair, so not good. Another con is sometimes it takes long to get your food. And last but not least, I think their prices are not reasonable lately. Some of the prices do not match their menu, not sure when they raised their prices but I have never ever heard of a patacon costing almost $26 anywhere, and I frequent a lot of Venezuelan spots. Their name went from Q'Kenan restaurant to Q'Kenan Steakhouse so maybe now they just raised all the prices, I don't know. Their most expensive patacon on the menu is the one with Picańha and it says $17...yet I got charged 25.90. Regardless of how good something is, there shouldn't be a $9 difference from what is on the menu. That is absurd. On my last trip- $43 for an empanada, tequeńos and a patacon just doesn't sound right for Venezuelan food, and I come from living in Miami where restaurants are supposed to be more expensive. Add a tip and you're paying over $50 for street food. That's wild.

Per the recommendation of the waiter, we…read moreordered the Arepas Burriada with beef, chorizo and pico, and a medium rare Picanha steak with tostones and sweet plantains along with Soursop juice. Ambiance: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Food came out at a decent time Food: 5/5 The soursop juice was delicious- it didn't seem like bottled juice! The Picanha steak was perfectly cooked and the tostones were some of the best I've had in a while! The arepas burriada was not what I expected (I've only had circular handheld arepas) but was absolutely delicious! All the components went well together and the fried thicker cuts/chunks of arepas were delicious! Price: 4.5/5 For Orlando prices, it wasn't bad at all. Usually, work takes us in that Orlando area once a year. We'll definitely be back!

I like that they do offer specials through the week. I order the Moravia which comes with 2 arepas and I chose shredded chicken and pork. It also comes with fried cheese and you add topping of choice which I picked lettuce and tomato. They seem small but are very fulfilling. They are stuffed with meat. The chicken was my favorite as it was very well seasoned. Will be going back to try other menu items.

The music is the typical folk music of the area. There is no place in the Orlando MSA like it. Not a fancy place at all. This is more of a "farm" kitchen feel with plastic chairs under a tent. Excellent meat. Buy two Coronas and mix them with a FressKolita for a typical "refajo."
