When it was decided to go to Orinoco restaurant, all I could think of was the song from Enya:

Good song by the way! So I had no idea what to expect from Orinoco. Let's just say that I was pleasantly surprised!! I went to Orinoco for lunch for the first time and loved it. It is a small, yet authentic restaurant nestled on one of the side streets in the South End. Once inside, I felt like I was in South America. Seriously I almost ordered in Spanish. The decor was simple, but had a rustic feel to it. The Latin music playing in the background completed the experience.
Priced inexpensively, the portions were modest, but perfect size for lunch. I had the Orinoco salad (forgot to ask them to leave out the onions) and some yuca(yum!). Next time I will definitely try an Arepa- traditional Venezuelan grilled corn pocket sandwich. Oh and the service was excellent.
