It was really good! Wasn’t sure what to expect but turned out to be really fun and a new tasty treat on a Sunday afternoon. Staff was friendly and efficient. The menu is clear and easy to read right in front of the restaurant. The outdoor seating is spacious and clean. Prices were reasonable and everything tasted freshly made to order with fresh Ingredients. Cool vibe and close to the train. We just parked and walked around afterwards.

The food is amazing. The drinks are amazing. Get the criminal burger, seriously the best burger I've had in years. We also got the tostones, the perri hotdog with steak, and the Santa salsa hotdog. Sadly they didn't have churros today so will have to come back to try those.

I walked in this place by accident. Was looking for Empanadas but their Santa Salsa is really good! I ordered Mango Muerto as my cocktail for tonight. I personally love Mexican spicy bitter powders that drizzles on the top of the drink. Again, this is a bar with some snack food, if you want to hang out with friends. One of the kind in Williamsburg!

Fun place with good vibes. Also, first time having Venezuelan street food. The hot dogs were pretty awesome! I had two and they were some of the best I’ve had in the city. Yucca fries were also nice - nice change from the usual. I’ll be back

Cool Venezuelan joint, delicious street food that would give you a heart attack if you eat it too fast. They have a great selection of Djs and music, there's always something going on there. Good for a fun date. So much extra fun from Thursday through the weekend. Now I have to come more often to dance.

What can we say about Santa Salsa? This place is awesome! Thanks to Yuyi, we had fantastic service. A must visit if you love toppings, love hot dogs, and love chill vibes in a bar/restaurant setting. Graffiti is everywhere. The place is small and the taste is huge. Having a Venezuelan hot dog is a unique experience. All the sauces are deliciously adventurous, and so are the choices in food. Stay true to Venezuelan street food and try the Perro Con Todo. A true original in any Venezuelan Hot Dog food stand. You will not be disappointed. I wait for the moment we can go back to this place! Recommended: Perro Con Todo, Tostones, Tequenos, Yuka, Criminal Burger, and Especial Burger.
