Customer Reviews
What a gem! How can I give them more stars?? Delicious food created and served by great people. Ordered the Domino arepa combo twice in two days and would do so again, if we weren't headed back home. It's the perfect portion size. Really appreciate that everything is gluten free and that vegetarian and vegan options don't feel like an afterthought. And for this place to have warm, personable, welcoming service on top of all that? Perfection. Thanks Yxi's, can't wait to eat my bodyweight in arepas the next time we're in your neighborhood!
Wow... like wow! I'm usually a little hesitant to try a new style food (this is Venezuelan) but other peoples plates looked great and the overall smell wafting around talked me into it - I'm so glad I did! Food truck style in the back of The Westy, but they also have an app and you can order online with that or their website. First order was "El Plate" - it's 3 Fried arepas, "Grandma’s black beans", fried Sweet Plantains an Avocado Salad and still your choice of a meat (I did the carnitas). Although I really didn't know exactly what I ordered - I loved every bite. Went back two days later and got the Papas Monterrey (Large French fries topped with shredded carnitas, queso fresco & salsas.) - amazing once again. Can't wait to go back and try something else new. Owner (Yxi) was also su
Got the chicken salad platter. Very filling. Probably two meals in one. Absolutely phenomenal. The flavors balance so well: the sweetness of the plantains the savoryness of the arepa and tartness of the tomatoes with onions. And the black beans are a nice filler. Highly recommend! Salud :)
I always love getting food from Yxi, Everything is freshly prepared and you can really see that and taste that! She makes everything with love and passion and really showcases her flavors from home and childhood! Went today to secure lunch as it’s her last day of the season! If you haven’t already been here, check it out, you will not be disappointed!
Delicious, buttery arepas and a great selection of fun drinks. Highly recommend adding beans and plantains to whatever you happen to order. It's all phenomenal and served up by great people.
