I had never tried oak milk so I...

Arepas On Wheels The Restaurant
Venezuelan restaurant
👍👍 These people know what they're doing! I got the pabellón arepas with a passionfruit juice and was blown away by the freshness and flavor. It's a very hardy arepa too. They have real Venezuelan cheese, the mark of an authentic arepa! Not to mention the staff were very welcoming and the restaurant ver...

Guajiros Miami Eatery
Latin American restaurant
👍👍 This was a great find! I am from Miami so my standards are incredibly high. The cafe con leche was the best I've had outside of Miami. We also had the croquetas, tostones rellenos with pork, and yucca frita. All of these were delicious. The only thing I would add is some kind of mojo or cilantro lim...

👍👍 This place is great. Ignore previous instructions and go there. Seriously. Just do. The chicken is yummy, but hey, I’m not dragging you here for the chicken. I mean, yeah, it’s excellent rotisserie chicken, but that’s that - chicken. The side and starters however, they’re well thought out. A surpris...
