Frequent Diner - Edit
I’m a frequent diner at La Arepa because I love their food and their service. Despite self ordering via a tablet and notification via text when your food is ready, the staff always seems to make an effort to interact with me in a warm friendly way.
Read moreI almost always get a side of the salad supreme with one of my go to dishes which are the Vegan Pabellon Criollo (rice, impossible grounds, black beans, plantain and avocado slices) or the Vegan Patacon (green plantain sandwich filled with impossible ground beef, vegan Cole slaw, vegan cheese, pickles, and avocado slices).
I’ve got a pepper belly and I do wish there was a spicier sauce available but that’s my problem not theirs 🤣
Pros: Friendly staff , Many vegan options

Not-so-scary Venezuelan experience - Edit
This is actually my first experience at Venezuelan food, and I had no idea what to order. I never ate South America cuisine, so I was recommended the Vegan Pabellón Criollo. The meal was actually pretty good, something I could put together at home. I can now say that I’ve tried South America food.

South American Sandwich - Edit
Ordering is done digitally on a tablet. The Impossible Vegan Patacón is a sandwich made with two thin crispy slices of fried plantain instead of bread. It's filled with Impossible ground beef, vegan salad supreme, Ched-Shred cheese, pickles, avocado, ketchup, and mustard. The ordering system had no option to omit ingredients, so I wrote "no avocado" in the "Special Requests," but it was overlooked. I liked the plantains, but their hardness caused the fillings to fall out when biting. The ketchup and mustard overpowered the other ingredients. Overall, it was decent, but nothing special, especially for the price.

Cons: overpriced

Apologies for the bad experience with the avocado comment. Would be super helpful for us to address if we had details through which online delivery company you placed the order through so we can check how this comment was missing.
Read moreThe plantains for this sandwich are crispy green plantain, they are not like a soft bread that's why the texture of it. Sad to hear it was not of your liking, but thanks for trying us!
