“ First time visiting today for lunch. Caroline greeted me at the counter and was very helpful in recommending my first sandwich. I say "sandwich" but the are much closer to a flat bread. I had the Chicken Pepitazo and it was delicious! Bread and fries were both perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Flavor combo of the sandwich was spectacular. Great first impression. I look forward to exploring more of the menu in the future. ”
“ The food was delicious. Didn't know what a pepito was exactly, the staff was happy to explain and make suggestions, very helpful and friendly. Went with a pepitazo and a champi gratinado for my wife and I. Both were delicious - the pepitazo was better. They also have a variety of delicious sauces, most were tasty, but the garlic and cilantro one was really good. Some of the appetizers and desserts looked good, but we were stuffed and had half a sandwich left over. Next time. Pretty standard industrial restaurant atmosphere, functional, and perfect to focus on the food and people rather than a fancy environment. We liked it. ”
“ If you haven’t tried this place yet... you’re seriously missing out! I ordered the California Pepito and WOW (Hispanic accent lol) the flavor was incredible! Juicy tenderloin, crispy bacon, creamy cheeses, and the perfect balance of corn and sauces on soft, grilled bread. Everything was fresh and loaded with flavor. The fries were crispy, and the three sauces that came with it were the perfect bonus especially the green one (SO delicious!). The portion size is huge, and totally worth the price. You can tell they don’t skimp on ingredients, and it tastes homemade but elevated. The menu has so many options everything from mushrooms and plantains to different cheese blends so there’s something for every craving. Highly recommend this spot if you’re into loaded street food style sandwiches with serious flavor and Latin flair. Definitely coming back to try the Champi Gratinado! ”
“ The food was phenomenal. Much like everyone else, it also left me pretty stuffed after eating it. The staff was super nice and helpful considering it was my first time going, they even gave me a recommended sauce to try, while the corn sauce was pretty nice, the garlic sauce is my favorite. Wait time wasn't long at all, and the prices were pretty fair. Should the opportunity presents itself again, I would certainly come back ”
“ La comida divina!! Authentic Venezuelan food done right. We met one of the owners who is so nice and accommodating, had great recommendations and was very attentive. The food was flavorful and filling — the mixed protein is the way to go (and the range of sauces is impressive!), and you have to try the Te de Limon. Can’t wait to go back! ”
“ Amazing food, I'll need to revisit many times. The Pepito Guaro, who knew?! Extra tasty meats, the bread is perfect, you kinda make a little sandwich by folding it, and my goodness, you're in heaven... Or Venezuela, depending on your mindset. Do try not to drown yourself in the garlic sauce they conveniently leave on the table for you. Worthy of your time, dollars, and tastebuds! ”
“ The food was so good! I got the 4 cheese Pepito with beef. The beef was tender, like I was eating high end steak. I also loved the sauces they have at the table. I used the corn sauce on my fries. The photo of my to go portion doesn't do it justice, you just have to try it. I will be going back to try other Pepito's, for sure! ”
“ We wanted to try something new. You must try Pepitazo!!! A Venezuelan Fiesta for the Taste Buds! Let me tell you, this place is a flavor explosion! We devoured the Classic and California pepitos. Authentic, delicious, and the staff was so welcoming. A must-try! ”
