I have been to this place a few times starting when they were a food truck in Santa Cruz. The food and the portions sizes are great. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. If you like meat, they have a few options of seasoned meats. If you are a vegetarian or vegan there will also be options for you. They have multiple sauce options ranging from mild to spicy so if you cant handle heat there is a sauce for you. One of the things I always put in my order is plantain. Great food and fresh ingredients.

Yummy, filling and welcoming! We ordered the vegan and chicken arepa with a side of tostones. (Pictures don’t do it justice) The vegan arepa was packed. I loved the creaminess from the avocado, saltiness from the beans and slight sweetness from the plantains. Highly recommend! The service was also excellent. The staff take your order and start working on it as soon as you walk up to the register. They’re also super welcoming. Would highly recommend this spot if you’re visiting Santa Cruz!

I like the new location inside of the main area at Abbott Square! Feels more convenient. There used to be a bit of a lag when it was in the other location but now service seems faster. I love a good arepa -- good takeaway food and you can make it as nutritious or as indulgent as you like. I've tried most varieties and love them all. Tostones are yummy. Love the cute capybara holders they sometimes come in. Mmm watermelon juice is such a good refreshing addition. Support this unique local biz!

WHAT A GREAT AREPA! So tasty and delicious, just like the ones in Venezuela. The place is super nice with great music by Rawayana, good drinks (I especially recommend the Venezuelan lemonade, which is made with raw cane sugar and lime), and the pabellón arepa is fantastic. The service is also very good and fast. I recommend going with friends and family :)

Wow! Tostones were so amazing with the Guasacaca sauce. I never had these before but they were delicious fried on the outside soft on the inside. This small plaza shares the building with a sushi spot. There was literally only 10 seats inside all filled up! I didn't try anything else because of Ash Wednesday but I would love to try the Arepas.
