Good traditional Venezuelan food! The Staff had an attitude problem when we brought up that the empanadas were covered in oil and instead of fixing it we got yelled at. We got passed that BUT what I can’t personally pass is the CIGARETTE SMELL of the dining area and entrance. It’s too much that you can’t even enjoy the food. Wish they move somewhere else so that their food could be more appreciated.

Eng- Passing by Welland when I saw this restaurant out of the corner of my eye. Had to U-turn to try it out and it was the best decision of the d̶a̶y̶ weekend. Atmosphere-wise, it reminds me of restaurants in Colombia — I especially like that the kitchen is visible and not hidden in the back so you can see the work they put into the food if you like. The owner was very friendly and helpful on what we might like based on our appetite & preferences. Fooood. We got two arepas and a Cachapa. At first, i thought the arepas were a bit expensive but when we got them and i saw how big and packed they were, i understood why they were priced as such—and even then i would probably be willing to pay more based on taste. One is enough per person in my opinion. The Cachapa I got with pulled beef BUT if you are going to try the cachapa, i recommend you get it with only cheese(as the owner recommended but i was really craving the beef). With only cheese you can really taste the outstanding flavour. We will definitely be coming whenever we pass by Welland in the future, no questions asked. Esp- Papa's Grill me recuerda a restaurante de pueblo en Colombia. Muy casero y delicioso. La dueña fue muy amigable y nos ayudo con recomendaciones. La comida estuvo espectacular. Las arepas deeeliciosaaas. Muy buen sabor y el tamaño perfectas para una persona. La Cachapa (si sabes que es Arepa de Choclo, es muy parecida) también muy deliciosa pero recomiendo que la compren sin carne—solo con queso para que puedan saborear el sabor de la masa de la cachapa. Definitivamente volveremos cuando estamos en la área.

Great local spot to pick up Venezuelan food as well as other cuisines. The inside looks to be very cozy and would be a great place to sit and eat once things open up again. We called to order and picked up. It is just off the 406 and very accessible to those who don't live in Welland. There is parking on the side street or behind the restaurant. We ordered the Latin Combo (one in chicken, one in beef) as well as a side of tequeños. The tequeños weren't as cheesy as I am used to, but the rest of the meal made up for it. The Latin Combo consists of one arepa with two empanadas. The chicken combo was excellent, and the sauce was amazing once we added it on. The chicken's flavour was tasty and flavourful. The beef combo was just as good, offering a slightly different flavour profile. We swapped empanadas so we could both try them and both agreed that the empanadas were a great choice. For sure will be visiting again, hopefully in-person to see the restaurant in action and try another round of tequeños.
