Absolutely loved it, the "perro con todo" was delicious as an authentic Venezuelan hot dog is. Tequenos were well stuffed up and the "empanadas de cazon" were crunchy and even more delicious if you dip in "guasacaca". Definitely coming back!

AMAZING Food!! Real Venezuelan style! I was there for breakfast and then again for lunch the following day. Varied menu for both meals. The Cocada (coconut smoothie) is a MUST! Or the delicious LEMONADE! Wow! With mint flavor!! Definitely going back soon.

Absolutely loved Perros y Vainas in New York! I stopped by and tried the tequenos — and wow, they were amazing! Perfectly crispy on the outside and deliciously cheesy inside. Honestly, everything on the menu looked great, and the food I tried was full of flavor and clearly made with care. The vibe is fun, the service is friendly, and it’s the kind of place you’ll want to come back to. Highly recommend if you’re craving something tasty and different!

Amazing food, I tried the empanadas (2beef 1 chicken) and the arepa(chicken) with the green sauce and it was absolutely amazing. The women in the front were also very nice.
