I have lived in Troy since 2012 and this is one of the best meals I have ever had. This was our first time ever trying Venezuelan food, so I went with the traditional Pabellon Criollo and my girlfriend tried the Costillas de Cerdo. The apps, drinks, all food, and dessert were phenomenal. We loved the dining space and hospitality. We must try the Arepas next!! Cannot wait to return to try more!

We were very late for our reservation, but but served as quickly and kindly, as we were also late for our event. The food was almost as described in the menu, but good vegetarian options good wine by the glass

Fantastically good arepas and cachapas and plantains and soup! Spacious upstairs with view of the Hudson. Super friendly staff and relaxed vibe. Really reasonably priced, good-sized portions, and four delicious sauces that come with every dish! Also- Oh Corn! catered a dinner for a work retreat I had a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit! And met all the dietary restrictions of everyone on my team no problem. Highly recommend for drop-in meal or for catering!

We got a chicken arepa and a beef (mechada) arepa. Both so good that we ordered a third arepa to share (reina… shredded chicken and avocado… maybe our favorite). Aldo tried the natural passion fruit juice. Excellent too. Will be back!

I was in town for just a few days but when I was looking for places to grab some dinner this place caught my eye. I’m glad I made the decision to visit. All of the restaurants I visited while I was in town were great, but the food here was able to satisfy a craving that none of the other stops could satisfy. With so many great restaurants in the area I would suggest adding this one to the list of you are in the area. The staff was great at suggesting their menu options, the sauces were spot on, and the tres leches was so sweet and moist.

Much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Plenty of space but limited service (one wait staff) but service was still good. Took awhile for the food to arrive since we were a large party but It was delicious and filling and left us pretty happy.

I first dined in with a friend who recommended this food. I like a good arepa but these arepas and cachapas are an A+. Every bite is delicious and the service is great. I’ve been back a few times and continue to recommend to all I know. I can’t wait to go again. Please don’t ever close!

Hidden gem! This place is an ideal spot for a date if you are into trying amazing Venezuelan food! The food here is delicious and I’m in love with all the sauces they have! Their beef empanadas are must haves! Staff is great and helps you navigate the menu if you need it. Service was quick and easy on the pocket!

We just finished our family brunch and got back to the hotel. With not much to do outside in winter, I thought I’d write a review for the Venezuelan food we just ate. We LOVE the food, my 9-yr daughter who has already developed appetite and criteria for food, commented she could eat there all day long! Everything from the appetizer, to drink, coffee and dessert is delicious! And I wanted to add, all the custom-made sauces are fresh and tasty! The owner was very attentive. Not many customers around at that time, we were able to have a conversation about the food and the place. He showed us the ingredient in its original form and told us how the specific foods are prepared in different ways. My 9-yr old enjoyed it so much. Also, the art pieces created by the family member are so authentic and interesting, adding so much flare to the place. Thanks for giving us a wonderful food and culture experience on our trip! We’ll be back for more!

I guess it doesn’t match my taste buds as I prefer spicy food. It was kinda a blend for me. It felt healthy though.

Ordered takeout from here for my family. The food and sauces were very good! My favorites were the empanadas and the cilantro sauce. But it was very expensive for small portions. I ordered the 6 mini arepas for $18 (pictured). It felt like very little food for $18. This was my family’s first time eating here, and we had to go out and get Chipotle after because we didn’t realize how small the portions were. We were still so hungry!

Food was gross and rice was mushy and plantain were raw and waitress could not speak English It was $93 for lunch for me my daughter most expensive place in Troy with the smallest portions i ever seen. Rice was so mushy can plaster the wall with it. Never again Worst ever had in my life for spanish cuisine and most expensive. Child size portions for 18 a plate
