Our first time at Bacan Bar. Amazing staff, super friendly, bilingual, ready to answer questions about the menu, 10 out of 10. Always excited to try new things. Chacapa. Alex had it with chorizo, I paid $4 extra to have it with slow cooked chicken. It literally melts in your mouth. The corn pancake is unique, the perfect amount of sweetness and the melted cheese. To die for. Portions are more on the generous side so couldn't quite finish mine. Delicious leftovers for tomorrow. Elevated street-food kind of vibe. Great ambience and decoration. Pretty laid-back, we didn't need to make a reservation. Unpretentious and cool at the same time Do we recommend it? !!!! We're planning to go back and try everything both at brunch and dinner time.
We had the Arepas and the Yucca fries and they were amazing! Quick and friendly service as well. Will definitely be back :)
A wonderful place with tasty Venezuelan and Argentinian dishes. Service was very nice and quick and we had to get a take out box cause those yuca fries were too good to leave them behind. Thank you!
Feb 5, 2024: Update based on the exaggerated response from the owner: it was a restaurant. I arrived 15-20 minutes late to an eatery, not to my job! I am being made to feel guilty because I arrived late to a restaurant on a Saturday! And I did not change my order several times, please don't spin things out of context just because you only want 5-star reviews. I initially decided on the chicken empanada and the beef arepa but right then and there after discussing with you, changed it to beef empanada and chicken arepa. You didn't write any of this down. Just mentally noted it and left (the entire discussion took less than a minute, by the way) and then went and mixed it up. And if I found the beef burger greasy and soggy, lol, I have a right to mention it in my review. Bottomline: I ended up paying for poor service, bad food and mixed up orders and I am being patronized on google for arriving late to a restaurant! Feb 3, 2024: I ordered a beef empanada and a chicken arepa. They mixed up my order and brought me the opposite items. The beef burger was greasy and soggy. Beans and liquid literally sloshed out of the bottom of the burger. Then they charged me 18% gratuity citing group rules nonsense.
Great gluten-free options !
The meat platter was fantastic .
Friendly service. Delicious food.
