Pomarosa - Toronto, Ontario

Nice (modern?) Venezuelan place near Coxwell station. Main food items are their arepas with a variety of fillings and empanadas. And of course coffees Had a great brunch with breakfast (scrambled egg) arepas, pork Carnitas, and a guava/cheese empanada. The eggs were amazing - very tender and flavourful. The pork was a ... bit on the drier side. The guava cheese empanada was very good. The guava was jammy and went well with cheese Also tried a cold horchata latte which was great. Read more

My wife and I visited this place for lunch as it caught our eye while we were walking from the TTC Coxwell Subway station. We had never had Venezuelan food and decided to give it a try and boy…… We are so very happy we did. The restaurant looks great and ... has a relaxed atmosphere that made us feel very welcome. The staff was friendly and helpful in helping us understand the items on the Menu. We both decided to enjoy some Arepas, something both had never had before. My Wife had the La culpa es de la vaca (Pulled Beef) and the flavor of the beef was amazing and the toppings were the perfect complement to the meat, the balance was dead on. I had the Reina (Sous-vide chicken) that was so tasty. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the flavors infused were just fantastic. We both were blown away with the quality and care put into this food. We also had a couple of their Empanadas. My wife had the Chuleta Empanada (Smoked pork shoulder) and I had the Beef Empanada and both were great. Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. They also supplied us with some sauces that just added to the whole meal, just making the whole experience even better. The last thing we had were some Churros. My Wife loves Churros and said these were some of the best she had. In conclusion, if you are in the neighborhood and looking for a nice place to eat, you can’t go wrong with eating here. We both loved the food and the place and fully plan on coming back. Read more

Great place for lunch, it can get busy and they don’t have extra staff serving tables but there’s more people cooking. If you’re in a time crunch just call ahead. Food was delicious had the “It’s not the cows Fault” arepa it was super delicious and filling. Beef Empanadas were delicious ... too. Don’t be shy on using that garlic parsley sauce it’s makes the arepa better. Passion fruit drink was refreshing. Super fresh, great atmosphere and great food. Read more

This is a cute hidden place. Atomsphere was awesome with hanging live plants off their roof. Our server was awesome We each ordered a sandwich. I find the portion very small. And for $15+ sandwich, i am sure it won’t fill a hungry person. The sandwiches were also very messy and ... dripping juices everywhere and ultimately, we all felt that the bun was too small and crumbled with the amount of meat they stuffed in portion. I think separating it into 2 smaller sandwiches would make more sense. Thankfully we weren’t wearing anything fancy, but everyone had a hand full of juices and that just was just messy Read more

Our brunch at Pomarosa Cafe was a true delight. The staff's warmth and patience in helping us choose dishes made us feel welcome. The regular size Arepa and La Cupla were both delicious, showcasing the kitchen's expertise. The open kitchen concept added a personal touch, with chefs laughing and chatting. ... The cozy interior design created a charming atmosphere, making us feel like guests in a friend's house. To top it off, the hot chocolate with marshmallows was the most amazing one I have ever had. Its rich and velvety texture, combined with perfectly melted marshmallows, elevated the entire dining experience. Looking forward to our next visit – highly recommended for a delightful brunch, complete with unforgettable treats. ♨️🍫🔥 Read more
