| - I went there the other night for dinner. Granted, I was there early but other than two people sitting talking in the restaurant, there was nobody there. I ordered a Chicken Arepa, Shredded Beef Empanada, and the Ground Beef Pastelito. The kid who took my order behind the counter said it would take 15 to 20 minutes. I couldn't figure out why it would take so long-maybe they had a lot of take out orders for pizza (they share the same kitchen with Rosati's). Instead of taking 15 to 20 minutes, I'm waiting there around 30 minutes, the kid has disappeared, and once in awhile, I see some other guys in the back. They must know I am waiting, but not once does anyone come out and tell me that my order will be out shortly. Finally, some other guy who looks like he could be the boss asks me what I ordered. I tell him, and he brings out my bag, which seemed to have been sitting there for who knows how long. It seemed hot so I left and did not complain.
As far as the food, never having had an Arepa before, I was not too impressed. It was somewhat bland and it tasted like a taco. The empanada was incredibly greasy. The Pastelito was the best-the ground beef was tasty.
I might go back and try some other items on their menu but they need to improve on their customer service especially when there is virtually no one in their restaurant.
