    We really enjoyed our meal here. The atmosphere is bright and fun, the people working there were all friendly and welcoming, and the food is great. We had the fried yucca (with some great sauces), a chicken empanada, and an arepa. The chicken in the empanada has such great flavor. The arepa was much lighter and less greasy than some we've had in the past (in a good way) but not to say it wasn't huge and absolutely filling. We got the one with the fried pork, avocado and tomato and it was absolutely smothered in garlic sauce, which we loved.

    This was my first experience with Venezuelan cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is vibrant and has a lovely atmosphere. I went with my friends, and we decided to share our dishes to try a wider variety of flavors. We had a great time at Chamos, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice!!

    This place is fantastic. The chicha alone makes it worth coming here. Probably one of the best chicha drinks I've had in my life. I highly recommend the tequeños, empanadas and their pabellón criollo. There's street parking in the area. The decor is fantastic too and the staff is nice and friendly. The food does take a bit to come out but it comes out fresh and it's worth the wait. The prices are reasonable for what it is, and the fried plantains in the pabellón were cooked to perfection.

    If you haven't been here, then come. Most definitely worth it. Edit: ordered today 7/14/24 and they got my to-go order wrong. Hope they can refund me since I ordered 4 pabellones.. but only had beef and nothing else Edit 12/17/24 I would say this place is expensive, but good taste. Ordered a plate for my wife and I, two appetizers and one drink 60 At a lower price point, I would come more often. At current price point, it's a special occasion place for me.
