    Cheese Cachapas
    German C.

    The place is very modern and good for sit down though i've only gotten food to go. I've had the cachapa and the sample platter-- the cachapa is well made and delicious but my favorite has to be the sampler platter -- you get fried arepitas, mini cachapas, tequeños, and plátano (fried plantain) all with cheese -- this is like the perfect Venezuelan tapas ...

    I usually come late night maybe 1040 or 11 whenever they're about to close and I order the arepas and the Cachapas But since I laid food they have a sampler- with mini arepas fritas, mini Cachapas, tequeños and tostones with cheese .. it's only about $16 plus tax and it's delicious- and fill in filling The arepa bistro -- choose your toppings but I like the guayanés cheese, sweet plantains and churrasco .. I've only had their Cachapa which are also big and delicious but I need ti try it with churrasco o picanha. The inside is hip and cool, very relaxing and modern -- plenty of seats and space. Love it

    Amazing!! It reminded me of my homewtown, arepas cachapas, my favorite beer The service was as expected. Fyi the empanadas have a sweet flavor on the dough which is good for me. Pabellon empanada I'll try more plates but i will be back when i come To Doral

    Las muchachas que atienden son rápidas. Los productos expuestos en buffet están impecables, se notan frescos y bien cortados y servidos. El ambiente es tranquilo.

    How disappointing. Second time here and they lost 2 stars pretty quickly! 1st Im still waiting for my glass of water I ordered as soon as I waked in. They brought my lunch out before bringing the appetizers. The table said sanitized and I could see sauce slashes from a previous customer. And the final straw- I had to stand up and go to the to go window to pay my bill cause nobody deemed it necessary to bring it over. I asked to see the bill and they asked me to put my card first and printed a receipt that did not show what I had been billed. When I asked for the breakdown, he printed it and surprise surprise, they put in an automatic 18% when they barely deserved a 10%. I was not given the option to change it nor reduce it as my card had been billed for the total.

    Great place for a quick stop for breakfast or lunch. The place is clean and well maintained. You can order at the counter, but they also have table service. Much of the food is pre-prepared daily, but it's fresh and flavorful. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you live or work in the area, this is a nice neighborhood place, but I wouldn't make a special trip to be here.

    Me recomendaron este lugar para desayunar y pedi el plato que le llaman sample ya que quería pobrar un poco de todo pero no fue lo que esperaba, la porción si están bien, los patacones (tostones) venian crudos, la porción de cachapas también le falta cocinar un poco, las arepitas y los tequeños si estaban bien, el lugar es bastante limpio y grande.

    I really enjoyed visiting Saman! Good flavor, great customer service and many options to choose from! The only thing I didn't love so much is that the arepas are usually a bit burnt. Some people like it like that, but I'm not one of those. Other than that, I liked this place! :)

    Chicken salad arepa
    Tiauna T.

    I had a little bit of everything because I never had Venezuelan food before lol. My FAVE AREPA was the one I saw in the menu. It had the chicken salad, shrimp and chicken all in one. That chicken salad was amazing!!! I'll never forget it. I liked all of them because the arepa had a sweet flavor to it and the portion size was phenomenal. I'll be back for sure!!

    It had been a while since I last came to this place and let me tell you, it has definitely changed a lot....but for the better! They upgraded the entire place, more roomie, better tables and lighting, ambiance and the food is a lot better too! Typical yet delicious Venezuelan cuisine. This time all we had was 2 arepas and tequeños. First a Reina Pepiada. Ingredients are shredded white meat chicken tossed with avocado, mayonnaise, garlic, onion plus other ingredients. The other was custom made, yes you can have the arepa any way you want it! Shredded meat, queso de mano (white cheese), avocado slices and maduros (fried plantains). Absolutely delicious! Granted, there are many Venezuelans restaurants you can choose from and you should try them all and decide for yourself. Saman is definitely one of my tops in Miami for arepas. Gonna have to go back and try other dishes.

    A+++ Alex the manger way to go.

    My friends and I chose to have lunch here because they have a play gym for younger children. (Think…read moreup to 6-7 years old.) It has a slide and a ball pit. The play gym area and the dining area around it were very clean. As I sat there for lunch, I saw a couple of different servers come by to clean and sweep after the children. There are a couple of four-top tables around the area, and we were seated at one. Our server, Mariarosa, was so sweet and on top of all we needed. She really made the experience exceed our expectations. The lunch menu was varied and priced fairly for the quality of food provided. I ordered the fish and shrimp ceviche bowl with rice. The patacones served with it were spot on. So crispy and delicious! For a couple of dollars more, one can choose to drink a soda, coffee, and/or dessert. Our whole party was really surprised by the overall quality of the food and service. Coupled with the fact that the children were occupied and were able to play safely while we dined was another spectacular perk.

The menu is a Latin fusion with a nice selection of Venezuelan and Peruvian cuisine. The Bocas Grill Ceviche - a mix of fresh fish, shrimp in a leche de tiger sauce and topped with fried calamari and chips. At the request of our server, we tried the Vuelva la Vida Cups - this is a plantain cup with a little seafood salad inside. This came 3 to the order and it was bursting with flavor. This was a great choice in the area. The food was delicious and we got to watch some soccer too.

We ordered two sampler dishes where a little bit of everything was served. The pork belly was my favorite along with the fried seafood. Having had a lot of rice in my diet, I was surprised how good the fried rice was, so definitely get a fried rice item. The award winning Mac and cheese is also a must get. The only thing I did not like here is the dessert. They are overly sweet, but that seems to be the case with every dessert I've tried so far in southern Florida.

I look at her and chuckle/laugh and correct her by showing her the time on the phone, 9:50pm. She goes on to say they've already closed the kitchen. I then ask if the owner is present. I'm told No and then ask how they'd feel knowing their employees are turning away clients. Can we call him/ her? That's when she says to hold on let me go ask someone else. By then, the damage was done. She was adamant about not serving us. By this time, I had zero confidence nothing disgusting would be done to my food so I told her to forget about it. They don't want my business, I'll take it elsewhere. Which I did. Went to BJs around the corner and spent my $115 tab. The server there appreciated the $22 tip they got and We enjoyed the food and drinks. Terrible service. Mgmt and ownership should read this review. I won't be back.

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.

I highly recommend Luka, it's one of my new favorites in Doral.

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.

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.
