"Nice restaurant to try something new. Staff was friendly as food was served fast. Their physical menu doesn’t have any prices, so it’s a bit annoying that you also have to check the digital menu. Starter was particularly good (fried pork), but main plate (meat) was not special. They offer a courtesy in-house drink (digestive style) which was the absolute best."
Marcelo Lavinas Werneck
"It is a cozy restaurant. The staff is very friendly, smiling and helpful (they explain every dish to make the right decision).
I wanted to taste more things as it was my first time with Venezuelan cuisine. It was tasty and I have to tell the "platanos" is a great side dish.
The soup is very tasty, but it is more expensive like some other restaurants."

For traditional, hearty Venezuelan food, look no further than Corazón de Venezuela – literally translating as “heart of Venezuela”. Don’t leave without trying the local cocktail – a tropical fruit and rum concoction known as Guarapita – as well as the empanadas and corn pancakes with cheese.
