If you don't believe me scroll back to reviews over 3 years old or search in the search bar for those reviews which make it more clear the background of this restaurant. I think this is a conscious effort to hide where the money's going from customers who potentially wouldn't want to support that. I wouldn't be surprised if this comment gets deleted immediately but i have to speak my piece because im sure this would affect a lot people's opinion in the neighborhood

This place was awesome. Quiet, not too packed, very simple décor but pleasant vibe. We were blown…read moreaway by the arepas, I got the chicken and my friend got the vegetarian. Both were so flavorful, especially the chicken, and the plantains and cheese on the veg were the perfect combo. The empanadas were so fluffy and the cazón I got worked really well inside, the spices they added to the fish married it well with the dough. And the sauces!! Total must, particularly the creamy green sauce, but also the others ruled. And the prices were reasonable, I was very full after a $6 empanada and $13.50 arepa, for a lighter meal could probably just have the latter. Awesome spot in Bushwick for sit-down arepas.

I fell upon this place on a whim. I was strolling Bushwick and was enticed by the photos of their…read morearepas. I can confirm that they look the way they are advertised! And they taste delicious. I felt like the servings were huge!!! Immediately walking in, I was greeted and sat down. My order was taken quickly too. It was a busy day but my food still came out within 10 minutes. And good thing too because I was starving. I got the pollo arepa and pollo empanada. Looovveee how soft the pollo empanada is... it's so dang fluffy. That was my first time having an empanada with that kind of dough. I have to say that I prefer it. Wish Filipinos used that dough when we make our empanadas. lol. The pollo arepa was everything!!! I had never had an arepa until the day I had one here. The meat was seasoned so nicely in their tomato based sauce. And the actual arepa... soft yet had a bit of a crunch. It was the perfect textures for me. I also enjoyed their soursop juice. It paired perfectly with my meal. My friend got the pernil arepa and was impressed by the taste and the green sauce. I didn't get much information out of him other than it was hitting the spot lol. Definitely a solid place to go in the area. It's kind of medium sized in there but there is plenty of seating if you're with a party no bigger than 3 or 4 people. I think most people come in here for a grab and go situation. But it's cool to hang around to watch the kitchen at work and hear the music.

Very disappointed with this spot and was rudely accused of not paying the bill!…read more Came here extremely excited to try out their birthday cake tiramisu and check out the restaurant in general since it had been on my list for a while. While the place is pretty cute aesthetically, the service was awful. I had made a reservation since that's what's recommended by the establishment and everyone we interacted with was pretty unpleasant. In addition, the cake tasted old and so freezer burnt that we had one bite and discarded the rest. Nothing about it was appealing. Worst of all no one seemed to want to wait on us so we spent the whole time trying to flag someone down so we left cash on the table for everything and left. Dispute all this we decided to still tip 30% since our order was so small and we wanted to be courteous. 15 mins later I get an extremely rude phone call from the restaurant immediately accusing me of leaving without paying! They didn't even have the decency to check the table without immediately assuming and being unbelievable disrespectful. Still in disbelief about the entire experience, would not recommend this establishment to anyone.

The menu changes constantly and you can find the latest menu on their Instagram stories which they update daily. As a rule of thumb, plan to get dessert. The dark chocolate tiramisu slice we were served was healthy in size, rich in flavor and perfect to split between the two of us. I tend to order 3 dishes (one protein and two side dishes) when coming in with a friend. The dishes are always a reminder of how simple ingredients can be combined to create fantastic flavors. As a note, the Chicken Cutlet was perfectly crisp and now I feel inclined to stop in for lunch and grab a sandwich. The wines are definitely selected by someone who has a preference for funky I almost want to say musky flavors. Never really found something there that I liked which is the only drawback to this place. Get a reservation, this place can be packed very quickly. It's also good for small groups, I've seen many a birthday dinner take place here.

The inside doesn't have much seating (only window seating), but they have seating on the outside. On top of being a sandwich spot, they are also a deli and sell a variety of supermarket goods. I got their breakfast burrito and turkey club. Both sandwiches were pretty solid, and good for the morning. Service was nice but it took about 20 minutes for our sandwiches to be done, which I felt was a bit long. Would be a great spot to hang out with friends on a sunny day!

I ordered the feast combo and 2 orders of Sambusas for my boyfriends birthday. So excited to surprise my boyfriend with a delicious meal when i open the bag and come to find out half my order was missing. The feast combo comes with 7 flavors, i only received 5 flavors. I payed for 2 orders of sambusas and only received one order. I also ordered an additional bread which i did not receive. Very unhappy with the service. Felt a bit like they wanted me out the door as soon as i got there even though it was only 9:30 and they close at 10:00 and it was a takeout order. Food was tasty though. Wouldve been really nice to have everything i payed for though. Thanks to grubhub i did get money back for what was missing.

It's clean, the guy working when I went in was blazed out of his mind. So no true interaction just a glazed over stare and then movement. I'd try it out again.

I am very pleased that a place such as Sauce and Soda exists…read more We were out having drinks on a Friday night, and Sauce and Soda presented itself as a lifesaver to us. Being Angelenos, it's VERY hard to find ANYTHING that is open IN-STORE after 10 or 11pm...even on the weekend!! We were so happy to find this establishment while walking between bars and starting to feel very hungry! Also, it doesn't hurt that the pizza here is also EXCELLENT! Having visited L'Industrie earlier in the week, which I absolutely LOVED, I was very pleasantly surprised to find the pizza slices here to be quite comparable in taste, quality, and size. It's also a very bright, open, warm, and welcoming space within. Service was prompt and efficient, if not a tad bit curt...although I give them grace...considering the fact we were visiting late at night around 2am. Anyways...if it was THAT good when we went in the middle of the night...I feel I can confidently recommend this spot as great for grabbing pizza slices. It's definitely worth a visit, in my book!

Worth trying if you've never been, good local spot. People who work there were nice too.
