MARACAIBO

"Daniel Castillo fue el mejor mesero que nos podia haber tocado! Toda la comida estuvo deliciosa! Las presentaciones muy bonitas, servicio muy bueno, buen ambiente, buena musica, todo perfecto! Mi familia y yo quedamos a 3 horas de aqui pero ya tengo emocion de regresar!!"

"A friend took me here to celebrate my birthday. The ambience is understated elegance with a touch of whimsy with the presentation of the cocktails and food. I really enjoyed the shrimp arepa bowl and steak with onions. We had 2 cocktails, one appetizer and the two entrees for about $90. Everything tasted great and the service was friendly and professional. I hope to return soon!"

"I had high expectations for this restaurant -- the social media posts made it look very appealing. To start, I tried to make a reservation, but there were no openings, so I was advised to arrive and wait, which I did with my family. Parking was quite difficult even though there's valet service, since the space fills up quickly, so we ended up parking on the street after driving around for a while. The decoration and presentation of the dishes were very creative and visually appealing. We ordered the Venezuelan Sampler, which allowed us to try five different items. For our main courses, we had the Arepa La Venezolana, Arepa Manjar Llanero, and the Classic Pabellon. Unfortunately, the meat for all of the entrees were very tough, which we mentioned to our waiter. He was very polite and offered to replace the dish, but by that point we weren't in the mood for anything else. We hope to have a better experience with the food next time, as the concept and atmosphere truly stand out."

"I've visited this restaurant several times and always enjoyed it, but on this occasion I noticed the quality has gone down a bit. Food quality: The Caesar salad had no dressing and the garlic shrimp lacked seasoning also. The sides of tostones were old, they just heated up a little. I truly hope they bring back the great flavor and freshness that used to set them apart because I've always liked this place, but they definitely need to fix something with the kitchen staff. On the other side... They have a very good customer service, what always makes us return there. The beautiful host Camila was very kind and find us a comfortable table. And our server Richard was attentive and kind. Prices : For such a fancy place, the prices are very suitable to your pocket, we had 2 main course, 2 no alcoholic drinks, one appetizer and a salad for $53 excluding the tip. Which is not bad at all."

"This restaurant is exceptional! This is hands down our best meal my wife and I had on our vacation. The atmosphere, Service and Food were all wonderful! Our waiter Luis was so nice and helpful walking us through the menu and giving us recommendations which were perfect! My wife ordered the Maracaibo sampler which gives you a little bit of everything and it was delicious! Luis walked us through everything that came with the sampler. I ordered the Patacon Apollo Mechado and it was incredible! To finish off this awesome meal we ordered the flan and it was the best I have ever had. We enjoyed our experience so much we made reservations to eat here again before we leave. Thank you Luis for our wonderful experience. We will be back for the service and food!"

"Hice un pedido por delivery y todo mal. 1. casi 2 horas en llegar el pedido 2. Pedi una cachapa de queso, que lo que tenia un chiste de queso (?). Sin contar que estaba toda despedazada. Es la segunda vez que ordeno cachapa y esta horrible. La primera vez, bueno normal todo restaurant tiene sus dias buenos y no tan buenos. Pero lo de ahorita es inaceptable. Las 3 estrellas es porque los tequenos siempre han sido ricos. La expectativa vs la realidad "

"Magnifico lugar, la comida es increible! Yo me transporte desde que entre a mi estado! Una nostalgia bonita que nos las hacen placentera con su servicio. Nuestro mesero Daniel Castillo fu excelente! Siempre atento y con muy buenas recomendaciones! Ame el lugar. Felicidades!!"
