Small, authentic. Easy to order, and fresh! Traditional drinks, too. Great for a quick lunch.

It seams to be a popular place in Bushwick as it was full with people. My first try of Venezuela kitchen was successful as well. Pabellon Criollo was a tasty and quite a big portion. The service was nice, the interior looks good and the restroom was clean.

This place is AMAZING! Super cozy and the staff is super polite. The food was fresh and delicious and their drinks are top tier!

I had hair in my food. It was served partially cold. I didn’t get a proper compensation. I gave this place a few chances (it’s on my way back home and I’m usually very hungry) and it disappointed me each time. Basically the food is too oily and below average and the service is unprofessional. I will stop trying…

Fantastic Arepera! I was so happy with the find. I had the the arepa pabellón, (yummyyyyy!!) my husband had the reina pepiada, and my son had the jamón con queso. All fantastic. The tequeños we’re not the best but not bad either.

We had reservations for a group of 12, perhaps they don't often cater to crowds that large - because the service was exceptionally slow. Food, however, was worth the wait. Excellent arepas. Don't miss the coconut rum beverage and the soursop juice. Delicious.

I love Guacuco Ive literally been eating at their restaurants for years and never not-once been disappointed. The food is next-level delicious and comes in generous portions. There are similar-style Venezuelan restaurants out there, but Guacuco wins in flavor and presentation. The prices are great too. My favorite items are the pabellon criollo plate, oriental plate, pabellon arepa (a masterpiece!), tajadas, cocada shake and pepelon drink. I highly recommend you eat here. And don’t forget the green sauce!!! ?

The cocada was DIVINE. I literally attempted to replicate it at home and failed. I highly recommend getting this drink when you come here.I got the Leo’s Arepa and Pabellón Criollo. The arepa was sooooo good, I wish they had more cheese because it really complemented the meat and sauces. The actual arepa bun was the best though. Very crispy on the outside and tasted homemade.The pabellón criollo was delicious just a bit pricey since everything on the plate could fit inside the arepa- which then it would just be more reasonable to just get an arepa, which is this places specialty to begin with.Great customer service, very clean and great food!! Please don’t forget to stop by for the cocada, it’s DELICIOUS.

Always a great place to go. I do wish there were more vegetarian options, still a great spot to come with friends, the boo or fam.

Excellent vibe, great food & friendly staff. Had arepas for the first time and it was very nice to see that they had vegan/vegetarian options too. Their drinks are also freshly made, so that's a big plus too. All in all, definitely recommended to visit if you're in this area of Brooklyn.
