Somos

Authentic Venezuelan gem 💎 ✨️ build your own cachapas were absolutely worth the 40min drive. The guasacaca(green sauce of the gods) was on POINT. Atmosphere was clean, welcoming, and trendy. Staff was friendly and informative, overall great vibes, highly recommend- we will definitely go back to support this sweet little business any time we're in the area. My only disappointment was the portion size for the tequeños. They were cute little guys, 3 peices per order, very gourmet. My husband saw the portions and correctly ordered 3 orders for two skinny people. Normally, I would deduct a star from their food score for that since the tequeños were the draw, but times are tough for local businesses and Tequeños are NOT cheap to make. I'm not gonna deduct a star for it, because it won't prevent

My meal was good and flavourful. I appreciated that they had a vide variety of toppings including sweet Plantain. Their was a nice juice selection, their passion fruit juice was good. The service was good and the space was clean. Do wish they would toast after it's filled to warm up the meat and for the cheese to be a little melted. Would recommend for people looking for naturally gluten free items.

Think Chipotle-style ordering but with Venezuelan food. Fresh ingredients, great portions, and tons of flavor. Everything was delicious and the staff was super friendly. Quick, affordable, and different in the best way!! One of my favorite lunch spots in New Haven.

Quite fresh tasting arepas and ingredients. We had to wait a bit to order because they were making new arepas in the back, which is a great sign. They had a variety of toppings. This was a filling lunch for an affordable price.

We tried to go to another restaurant on the street, but it turned out to be closed. An employee there suggested we try Somos, and we are glad they did! This place is amazing. I’d describe is a small, family owned Venezuelan version of Chipotle with super fresh food. I had no idea what to order, but the owner was kind enough to help us with our selections. It was amazing. I’ve never had a cachapa before and now I’m craving them. I’m sorry Sally and Mr. Pepe, but I’ll be visiting this restaurant every time I’m in New Haven from now on.
