AMAZING vegan/vegetarian options an ND great cocktails. We LOVED the coffee/lime/rum shot, and the service was above and beyond. I highly recommend sitting at the bar outside or near the open window!

I was visiting Cincinnati a while ago and I came to this place… All I can say is 100% worthy. I’m Venezuelan and I wanted to try something from my country and this place surprised me in a very good way. The food has its own vibe, it’s not as any Venezuelan restaurant you can try, this is a palace where they put their magic in it and give an extra flavor to the food that adds something unique. If you’re looking for authentic Venezuelan food, maybe this is not the place but trust me you will be having a very tasty food.

Parking was easy. Absolutely a”maize”ing meal and drinks. Quickly seated. Pabellon criollo and chillo en salsa de Coco y tamarindo. Empanadas were so tasty with the cilantro crema. I should have asked for more crema for my leftovers. Meal was large enough for 2 meals. Thank you, Rachel S for taking great care of us.

The food is amazing! So many gluten free options and it is delicious! The music was a bit loud, which is probably fine for busy weekends, but it was nearly impossible to have a conversation on a Tuesday. Waitress was very helpful!

The service was disappointing. The server seemed annoyed. It looked like everyone was in a bad mood. The music was a bit loud. I had to really speak up if I wanted a friend sitting at the other end of the table to hear. I liked my dish. Wine option were meh.

We stopped at Maize before a midweek FC|C match. Delicious food and drinks. I love empanadas. These were terrific. We can’t wait to come back and eat our way through their menu. Everything sounded delicious.
