Guacuco is a delightful Venezuelan gem! The atmosphere is casual and cozy, perfect for a relaxed lunch or a fun dinner with friends. 🌟

I tried the vegetarian empanada, which was stuffed with a heavenly mix of cheese, beans, and plantain, all wrapped in a slightly sweet dough. The pulled pork arepa was another standout - so flavorful!

Don’t miss Marcy’s rum punch; it’s a perfect blend of refreshment and kick! A minor note: portions felt a tad small for the price, but the taste makes up for it. Definitely coming back for more! 🍽️✨
