I love plantain! Aleida's has the best plantain in town full stop! We were literally a few few steps from the restaurant where my sorority event was held (Summer Moon Coffee). Aleida's is a hidden treasure in a strip center near Summer Moon Coffee. The interior is lush with greenery and large wall length colorful mural. Today I noticed two walls of photos and paintings highlighting the Latin culture. This is a family owned business and it shows. The food feels like a its made with love. The flavors and presentation are personal. I ordered plantain (of course!), a corn breakfast taco with chicken and some Venezuelan flan. All were exceptional. My server was super personable and Texas friendly. He pleasantly persuaded me to try the Venezuelan flan because it was made by his mom. It does not take much for me to get weak at knees for dessert. Excellent, authentic restaurant...I highly recommend this restaurant.

1st time in here. Nice atmosphere and the service was good. But the food.... f@*king delicious. Recommend.

We came in on a Monday night, relatively early, so we sat right away. The vibe is fun, great, colorful mural on one wall, neat lighting, bright little bar. I got the Aztec Ruby drink, really nice. I got the Arepa Tropical and the shrimp and veggies inside were delicious. They have an eclectic menu in terms of the fact that in addition to tacos y arepas they had a Philly cheesesteak sub that was delicious. My son got their buffalo wings and loved them and raved about their rice. Nothing to complain about.

Arepa Jalapeño Grill Chicken

I had the Arepa Jalapeño Grill Chicken. It was awesome. Very flavorful with multitude of textures. Got a side of spicy red sauce. It was spicy. Yum. Get some chips and dip them in it. One of the best restaurants in Cedar Park for sure. Full bar. Next time, we avail ourselves of that. And gotta try breakfast here.

Cachapa Original

We were in the area so decided to check out this "northern" gem. The restaurant was small and quaint, but the menu was big and extensive! They offered breakfast, brunch, lunch/dinner, and a full service bar! Pick your vibe for the meal, they've got it. The food was excellent. I got the cachapa and added the fried pork (per our waiters recommendation) and it was awesome. They even had a house made hot sauce that paired perfectly with it. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area!

I never really had Venezuelan food before but their breakfast food was really good. The boss man gave us some extra sauces mid meal to do a tri mix and made it even better. The single breakfast plate was a lot of food. Enough to feed two people and really great for the price. Not a lot of places in Austin do this. I have to travel out a bit for this. I was curious about the shark empanada but was disappointed they didn't have any this day. Perhaps next time will have some. This place opens early enough so it's a good spot to hit before any event in the area.

New spot - same great food! Now they have alcohol too! We love the new location. The addition of a bar, patio and upgraded seating inside make it a much better dine-in experience.

Inside

Second time visiting but it wasn't as good. I got the Aleida's sampler, which includes mini arepas and other fried stuff. Although I shared it with my bf, it was difficult to finish because I think everything tasted the same. The interior is still as pretty as ever! Maybe I will stick with getting the big arepas next time but this visit was definitely 3 stars.

We stopped by Aleida's for a quick bite on a Sunday evening. The meal was good, but IMHO the place is not worthy of the almost 5-star rating posted online. The restaurant is a small "hole in the wall" storefront in a strip mall. Not necessarily a bad thing! But smaller than one would think. They are moving to another spot in the small mall, which we drove by on the way out. Larger space, area for a full bar, the licenses for which have been applied for based on the poster in the window of the restaurant. The only drinks/cocktails available this evening was one beer. Many of the items on the menu were "out of stock"... the restaurant's signature red sauce, all the desserts except tres leches cake, cachpas (didn't have those), etc., all not available. However, what we were able to order was good! We started with an order of chips and queso... chips warm, nice and crisp, the queso OK but unremarkable, some melted cheese and very small bits of peppers, red, green and orange (guessing red and green jalapenos and scotch bonnets). The tortilla soup was a standout... nice broth, ton of shredded chicken, seasoned a bit heavy, but tasty! We also had the jalapeno chicken arepas and a chicken burrito. Both were very good; the burrito was probably our favorite of the two entrees. Forgot a pic of the burrito... sorry about that! LOL Tips for management ... it wasn't busy. In fact, no customers there when we walked in. The staff laughing and joking in the back... a table full of old dishes and trash was closest to the order/register, food from the days diners was obvious all over the floor, the bottles of salsa bought to our table were not clean. If the staff has time (obviously it did) the place should be spotless.

Cachapa Pabellon
Andrew L.

Come here a couple of times and always had great experiences! Each time I've come at lunch and been served right away. The employees have been consistently friendly and efficient in their service I've never had a bad meal here, but their cachapa panellon is the dish I find myself going to most often. There's only a handful of places in the Austin area that serve it and I definitely think they do it the best I appreciate the depth of arepa options they have, I'm surprised more places don't have a breakfast arepa option. There's also plenty of non arepa/cachapa options that are also high quality, so I've had this place in my regular rotation for a while and never gotten bored Overall I can't recommend strongly enough if you live in the Austin area or are visiting from a place where Venezuelan food isn't available

We've been to Aleidas four times now. Fortunately it's very close by in our neighborhood. The space itself is bright, colorful, clean and relaxed. The owner and the other staff are friendly and share their knowledge about the food. The food is great, including the wonderful choice of flavorful sauces. We are big fans of Aleidas frozen margaritas! Ample, free parking is a plus.

I've never been one for sandwiches, but the arepas here made me a convert. The fillings are moist, tender and extremely flavorful.

Service was poor, they were out of numerous common drinks and the food was at best mediocre.

This is one of my favorites. Delicious food and friendly owners. The Arepa Pabellón is my go to item. I often find myself craving it.

So glad we stopped here on Saturday to try this food truck!…read more The enclosed, covered seating area is nice touch. Y'all know the heat is brutal in Texas and it actually started to rain on Saturday so I really appreciated the fact that we were covered. They have music playing so it created a welcoming vibe here. We came up and were provided a menu. I already knew I wanted an arepa and empanada. I went with the shredded beef and cheese arepa. They will ask if you want orange or white cheese. I went with cheddar cheese. I went with the same two fillings for my empanada. The meat was tender and had good flavor. Food came out fresh and hot! The sauces that came with the empanada were good! All of them! One green spicy sauce, one guasacaca (avocado salsa) and garlic sauce. She brought out more sauces to try. The jalapeño cheddar salsa was good too and the tartar sauce. I never like all of the sauces, but here I did! Everything was delicious and good. The service was amazing and I can't wait to come back! So good and fresh! ¡Dame mas!

This is located in the little food truck hub on Gattis School Rd. We were looking to get some early…read morebreakfast and were happy this was open. The cashier didn't really speak English but thankfully my husband was able to help translate what the different empanada options are. We got the chicken arepa and the molida empanada. The empanada was $5 and you can add cheese to it for an extra dollar. The breading for it was so sweet and delicious. It tasted like those sesame balls that you can get from dim sum. The chicken arepa was also tasty and flavorful. I also like the green sauces it came with. Definitely elevated the flavor.
