My wife and i just finidhed lunch here and it was just fantastic. Shredded beef arape was so tender and flavorful. Braised pork tacos were great as well. So happy you are here in Evanston. Go try this people. Authentic street food obviously made with love.
Don't go to their food truck. Freaking ridiculous. Customer service sucks. Oh and waiting 30 mins is unacceptable.

Hi Kelli, thanks for your feedback. I absolutely agree with you and will definitely bring this up with our team. Please come by the truck or the restaurant in Evanston sometime so I can treat you to a meal served the right way! Thanks! -Rachel
Yum! This place nails arepas. Haven't had them since I lived in Maracaibo and it brought back so many good memories. The restaurant itself is super cute, clean and the staff are very helpful. You'll love their updated spin on Venezuelan cuisine. Go try it!
Holy cow! Stumbled on this place with a friend and we decided to try it out for lunch. The food is outstanding! Super friendly service and a wide variety of dining options at a very comfortable price point. Absolutely worth the trip.
Was so good, definitely worth the twenty five minute drive, will definitely be back
