Venezuelan fare such as pabellón and cachapas, plus beer, cocktails, and coffee, in a casual space.
From Google Maps reviews.
This is the perfect place to come for your birthday because they bring you a cake, play a birthday song on their TV and the entire restaurant is cheering for you! 😂 And of course the food is amazing! The arepa (reina pepiada) was delicious. The staff was very enthusiastic. Beautiful Latin music in the background. Participating in the birthday celebration made it even more fun. This place is a whole experience.
I had such a great experience at the El Budare Cafe Stephanie was so friendly and attentive. I came for The Venezuelan Hallaca but actually all the food on the Christmas plate was delicious. I recommend the tequeños too are the best. Thank you I will back soon.
First stop on our South American food tour of Jackson Heights, Queens. Start with Ponche Crema cocktail. Like eggnog with rum. We ordered large appetizer platter and arepas. Two locations. Highly recommend.
