Such an amazing place in a beautiful old building near downtown Troy. Most of the menu is naturally gluten free and the owners are very allergy aware, accommodating and gracious. We had amazing arepas and pollo con arroz. If you call ahead and provide enough notice they'll even prep the fryer for gluten free! Service was great.
The food was delicious and most the menu was gluten free. I got a Juice that had sour sop in it and it is the most delicious drink I have ever had. I also got flan, Crème brûlée, a corn pancake thing with tuna in it although I forget the name, and I also got things that were like cheese sticks wrapped in corn. All of it was delicious. And my to go Crème brûlée came in a clay dish :D
Omg SO GOOD!! Sadly I am eating my last bite of leftovers as I write this review. I felt very safe as most of their menu is gluten free. There is a dedicated gluten free fryer. I also love the vibe inside the restaurant. I’m so glad to have this as an option to add to my short list of safe restaurants 😊
Edit: I went again and spoke with the owner. At the time they were using bullion cubes (not gluten free) on the rice plater. I’m not sure if they are still doing this, but I would double check before ordering that dish (it is marked GF on the menu)
Love this place and the people who work there. The hours of this place are just annoying but GF all the way
I Love this place! I’m from Saratoga so I try to think of reasons to go towards half moon so I can eat here! Finally a place that I don’t have to explain my health problems to!! I get to just order!! I can have anything on the menu since it’s dedicated gluten free! (Except the deserts) I also love bringing non celiac friends since the restaurant was never meant to cater to gluten free, the offerings just happen to naturally be gluten free. Please open one in Saratoga!! Also, please be open on Mondays!!
Amazing, authentic, fresh and friendly! My daughter has Celiac and we all loved it. Everything (except dessert) is gluten free and they are serious about any risk of cross contamination, thereby avoiding cooking any gluten filled ingredients. We are all foodies and thought it was a delicious lunch. This place is very casual but could not be more authentic and the service was he friendliest we have had in a long time, even with all my questions! Highly recommend!
The food was amazing! My daughter and I are gf and it isn't often that you are able to choose almost anything from the menu! Even the fried food is gf. The fried cheese arepas and yuka fries were both delicious! I want a bottle of that cilantro dipping sauce to take home. Highly recommended!
My daughter and I tried the arepas and the yucca fries. Both were excellent! I thought I could eat 2 arepas, but they are filling and I wound up bringing one home. The owner was so friendly and gave us a few things to sample. The juices were wonderful too. We really enjoyed the food and will be back. I do have celiac and did not get sick at all; the owner is very knowledgeable. Thanks !
This place is great, we ordered a little of everything to give it a try! The pork was really good but the beef Arepa with Gouda is amazing, I never order tuna from restaurants because it's usually not very exciting but this was the best tuna EVER! The owner was so excited and let me sample a few items before ordering, the Chachapa was also delicious: we had it with chicken.
Delicious arepas, gluten-free menu includes cachapas, plantain, yuca frita and others. The kitchen is 100% gluten-free with the exceptoon of the Crepes, but they are done at the counter
We were pleased to find this place while driving through NY on vacation. The owner was very friendly and helpful in letting us know our choices. The arepas and fresh juice were delicious. Not a completely GF facility as there were packaged cookies and candy bars that were not GF. We will be back on our way home!
Arepas, cachapas, crepes, cafe, natural juices, venezuelan food.Friendly staff and delicious food!
