We chose this Venezuelan restaurant for his high rate. We didn?t feel it was amazing. Food was definitely fresh and made upon... order. They offer some vegan/vegetarian options. Arepas don?t have much flavors even though they gave us some sauces. We triedtwo kinds. Drinks are not homemade but with powder. The lady was not great because my friend talked to her in Spanish andanswered her in English. I think it was not respectful at all. Locals eat there as we could have seen. Definitely not our placebut maybe yours. Price is a bit high for the food and drinks served. Read more
Great Arepa!! Ordered the Pabellón which is filled with Shredded beef , fried plantains, black beans, shredded cheese that... melts while you eat it. Very rich flavor, juicy meat and all fresh as I like it. Highly recommend this Venezuelan food place.The interior decor is awesome. Read more
This was my first time having Venezuelan cuisine. The restaurant is colorful and has a nice atmosphere. I went with my boi, so... we decided to split our dishes so we could get more variety. We ordered two arepas An Arepa is cornmeal slightly doughy on theinside disc that is cut in half to be filled various fillings, like a pita. I tried two kinds... Arepa Pabellon - Juicyshredded beef, sweet plantains, black beans and crumbled cheese in side an arepa. Definitivamente, mi favorito entre los dos. Ithink you'd like this one for sure! Arepa LLanera - flavorful Steak, sliced riped tomatoes and avocado, and white cheese. Its asolid choice, but the Pabellon is my recommendation. And empanada de queso - it was like an empanada except the shell wasn'tmuch of a pie crust. It was the cornmeal dough stuffed with salty white cheese cheese and deep fired. It was really good. Theoutside was crisp and golden brown and the inside was soft and fluffy filled with that delicious cheese. A little small for theprice, but still good. The appetizer Tequeños de Queso - is a thicc salted white cheese stick wrapped in dough and fried toperfection. I really enjoyed these. I think you would like them too. It comes with two dipping sauces: a creamy green flavorfulone and a creamy spicy red one ( not real spicy, but if you are sensitive to spicy stick to the green). And we washed it alldown with some Parchita, passion fruit juice. Overall, we had a good experience at Chamos. It seems like it was a good choice. Read more
If you want to eat a wonderful Venezuelan food, this is the place. The place is simple, cool and clean. The owners are kind and... the service is good. What it?s outstanding it?s the food!! Everything we tried was just amazing. Arepas is a must have. Even thejuices are good: wonderful the passion fruit, a little too sweet the lemonade. Overall quality very high compared to the prices.
