My wife is a Venezuelan Chef so I know good Venezuelan food when I see it. I originally found this place on my way back to Dalton, GA from a trip to Atlanta about a week ago. The owners were so kind and inviting and we spoke a bit about their story into entrepreneurship. I was blown away by their kindness and humility as well as the fact that they were both there working on achieving their dream of opening a restaurant. Once in stopped interviewing the owners( lol) I ordered the patacon mixto and the enrollado mixto. Both were really good and have to be some of the best I have had in some time.
I was so impressed with this place I brought my wife back a week later (yesterday) we ordered a Venezuelan hotdog, a Venezuelan hamburger , tequenos, and a Cachapa con queso. Our son had the chicken tenders.
Everything was so damn good! Excuse my language but it really was a delicious meal. Once we were done we chatted with the owners a bit and found out that everything is made fresh in their kitchen. Even the chicken tenders are cut breaded and fried in their kitchen.
My wife loved the food so much she ended up ordering some more to go. (She never does this so I’m guessing she loved it)
We live in Dalton ga but we will definitely make the hour and 30 minute drive Papelon Con Limón very soon.
To the owners: Keep up the amazing work guys. Your food is A-grade quality and authentic.

Read moreThe Venezuelan food here is delicious. The service is attentive. The atmosphere is as that of a home cooked meal from a loved family member! They make everything fresh and hot. Use quality ingredients and because of this they often run out of certain dishes. So make sure to call in to secure your favorite dish. My favorite dish the Venezuelan lasagna. Pasticho is the Venezuelan version of lasagna, featuring tender pasta sheets, a savory tomato-based meat sauce, and a creamy béchamel sauce. It is a beloved comfort food in Venezuela and holds a special place in the country's culinary heritage. My other half's is the Patacon a dish of flattened, twice-fried green plantains, also known as tostones in some regions. Easily worth the price for quality and fresh food! I have tried all of the other Venezuelan spots and still continue to find a better joint than Papelon Con LImon but they do not even compare. I always end up here again. Their tequenos are another good reason they have me hooked....
Read moreWe found the best Venezuelan food in Atlanta, it's at Papelón con Limón. This place was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. We had a delicious cachapa con queso, a perfect arepa Reina Pepiada, good frijoles negros, crispy and hot yuca frita, y refreshing papelón con limón. What a treat! I've visited many Venezuelan restaurants in Atlanta and other U.S. cities; this one tops the list: #1. Excellent service, clean tables indoor and outdoors, very pleasant atmosphere. We will surely come back! Thanks,...
