Los Chamos Venezuelan Cuisine — Restaurant in Lynn

If you like mayonnaise, this is the restaurant for you. The Chamos tostada was topped with mayonnaise and ketchup so as a result it tasted like a weird open faced burger. That is not meant as a compliment. The ketchup or sauce was so sweet in the pork it tasted candied. It was inedible! The chicken salad and avocado arepa also tasted like mayonnaise with meat chunks.There was just so much mayo you couldn't taste anything else. I thought the sauces or coleslaw might help, but they were all just mayonnaise. The slaw didn't have an inch of seasoning or salt, just cabbage bits and mayonnaise. I spit my bite out and gave it to my husband to eat. He couldn't eat it either. The arepas are a nice texture so maybe just stick to a plain cheese one, but bring...

Amazing arepas!

Update: I had the pork pabellon plate today and it is honestly one of the best lunches I've ever had. The pulled pork is delightful seasoned and with the complimenting sauces, mmmm. The rice is crazy flavorful and perfectly moist...you could happily eat it as a standalone side. The black beans have some salsa-like accoutrements within that spice things up, and the fried plantains provide a delicious and sweet conclusion. The only not stand-out portion of the meal are two corn fritters that still combine well with the rice, pork or beans. Through and through, an unbelievable dish...

The environment is dine-in and relaxed which I don't mind, however the cooks aren't the friendliest and not sure if it's outside culture or the heat from no central air above the stove and fryer. However, the food here is DELICIOUS, if you ever see a full tip cup trust me, it's the food, not the service ! That being said, I recommend order ahead or pick-up. If you get a chance try the Beef Cachapas (crunchy, sweet shell, and salted beef full of flavor), Chicken Torta (amazing sandwhiches in grilled bread), Mini empanadas, and especially the AMAZONAS SHAKE 😍 wasnt thick at all, was like healthy...
