Went there for lunch and it was incredibly good. So good, I went back again for dinner. Only thing is, that the chicken in the evening was a bit dry.Absolutely recommend and going back there again. This place is a must-stop when in Santa Cruz. Couldn’t stop saying, how awesome it is during the meal.

Nice food truck serving Venezuelan food. It was like pita pockets with corn tortillas. Shredded chicken or beef in a pocket with yummy sauces. Something a little different and quite good too.

Best food in Santa Cruz, the sauces make everything taste super flavorful and amazing. Especially if you are gluten free, I am celiac and their menu is all gluten free, it's so nice not to have to worry about cross-contamination. I eat here regularly and have never felt any symptoms of gluten exposure.Dietary restrictions: Whole menu is gluten free
