Let me make this easy for you: YES, you should eat here. That's really all you need to know, but I'll expand briefly. Anytime Arepa is just wonderful. They are one of many delightful food truck options at Zocalo, but this is the one I find myself coming back to over and over again. If you haven't tried one, an arepa is similar to a taco, except that instead of a tortilla, the delicious filling is sandwiched into a soft corn pancake (making arepas a tasty gluten-free food!). My favorite option is the veggie arepa, although they have several meat options as well. No matter what you decide on, make sure you add the fried plantains to your order. The slight sweetness of the plantain is absolutely perfect with the savory flavors of the arepa. My favorite salsa is the avocado salsa. It is not particularly spicy, but the flavor of it is just out of this world. I wish they sold bottles of it so I could put it on everything! The staff at Anytime Arepa is very friendly and the food comes out quickly - usually 10 minutes or less. I've never been disappointed at Anytime Arepa and I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

Stopped at Zocalo Food Truck Park on an early summer day with a friend and stopped at Anytime Arepa. I hadn't been to Zocalo in about a year so I was due for a visit. They had outdoor seating all set up for the World Cup outdoors, a nice setup. Once you place your order, they give you a restaurant pager that alerts you when your order is ready. It's especially nice on a pleasant day to stop here and grab something good to eat. I ordered the chicken arepa. Good stop. read more

Zocalò food truck park is one of my go-to places which often includes stopping by Anytime Arepas food truck. I really enjoy the chicken arepa with beans, feta, and the either the avocado sauce or garlic sauce! The flavor is always great and is a solid portion size. If you walk up to order, it does take 10-15 min to make, but it's worth the wait. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you are in the area! read more

Anytime Arepa is my favorite! What I like about Venezuelan Arepas is the delightful sweetness of perfectly golden plantains, contrasting with the salty, meaty either chicken or pork and cheddar cheese and tasty cilantro avocado sauce. I savor every bite! read more

Had a delicious arepa today at their Zocalo location. I ordered pork with plantains, monterrey jack, and avocado. The ingredients were quality and tasted fresh. There was a wait, but the estimate was exactly correct. I would definitely recommend it. read more

I love love love anytime arepa. Every time I go, the food is amazing! They have multiple locations but I have only been to the food truck at zocalo. It's a great spot to go but I would save it for a nice day as most of the seating is outside! It's get busy as this is a popular food truck but it's makes for a fun environment since there are a lot of people around. I usually get the chicken arepa with all the fixings apart from beans. It is a hearty meal and will keep you full. You can also get sides from the food truck but typically I fill up on the arepa. It's very good service and you can either order at the truck or use the mobile app. A recommend if you are looking to try arepas for the first time! read more

Ah! The good problem one finds at Zocalo. So many great choices and then you find one yummy thing and you feel you only want to order that forever. And finally, you branch out and become obsessed with something else from another vendor. Well, today I finally tried Anytime Arepa and the veggie option totally hit the spot! It has beans and plantains (awesome combo of flavors) and you can customize it. I chose the avocado sauce which nicely complemented everything else. Definitely a new favorite. We also ordered a tres leches and the Nutella rolls - delicious! The Cashdrop app makes the whole experience very easy for ordering and pickup. read more

SO GOOD. We tried the veggie arepa (with cheese and the spicy salsa) and it was phenomenal. I'm a huge arepa fan and this was for sure top two or three I've ever had. The sweet plantain paired with the rich cheese and spicy salsa was an absolute match made in heaven. 100% will be back. read more

Super good I've tried arepas over the years and am so happy that there is now a permanent location at the Zocolo food park. I've wanted to stop at Anytime's pop-up events in the past but it just never worked out. Since they've taken residence I've stopped a few times and this will definitely become a go-to lunch spot for me. Their service is quick and simple with their cashless payment, and they are always prompt and friendly with pickup. Uhm, and the arepa's are super good! I've tried a few varieties along with their plantains and cheese torpedos and have not been disappointed. Definitely a great value overall. read more

Cannot contain my joy they Anytime Arepas are now a permanent fixture at Zócalo Food Park (I believe previously they were based out of Kenosha and would only be at a few choice Milwaukee events). Anytime Arepas introduced me to the wonderful flavors of Venezuela!!!!!!!! My favorite is the Arepa with beef, beans, plátano maduro, feta and avocado. The owner told me this is the most traditional/typical style. It is DELICIOUS. I'm getting hungry writing this. I have traveled for these arepas (as I have stated before they were in Kenosha more often and I live in Milwaukee). I love them so much that one time, when I was having a watch party with friends of a Venezuelan tv show, I HAD to go with the culture and get us Arepas! Pictured on my serving platter. And can we talk about the value? I believe they're $8, maybe $9 and speaking as someone who can probably literally eat a horse, IF I finish one of them, I'm stuffed. It doesn't look like a lot of food but they stuff those beautiful pouches with so much mouth-watering goodness read more

We were first introduced to this food truck when we went to Zocalo a few years ago. We got arepas on a whim and while I loved it, it seemed like a truly life-changing experience for my husband as he has asked to have this for dinner many many times since. It's always delicious. I usually get the same thing: veggie arepa with black beans, plantains, avocado salsa, and cheddar cheese. If I'm getting take out, I bring it home and add my own feta and hot sauce to it. Sometimes I get those if we're eating at Zocalo. I remember them being stuffed more and being able to choose multiple sauces and cheeses without having to pay extra a couple years ago, but even now the food is good and is fairly filling. My husband got a chicken arepa and was equally satisfied. They also used to have cheese taqueños, but have since gotten rid of it - a constant source of disappointment for my husband. Regardless we will continue to eat here because it really is that good! The wait times aren't too long either and pick up is really easy. read more

One of the regular food trucks at Zocalo, muy delicioso. Venezuelan arepas (yes you could guess that, but there are no gentlemen in any "gentlemen's club, and I've never gotten any actual help from the "help desk" at work) and empanadas. The prices are in line with the quality of the food, be prepared for about $15 for a big arepa, only $7 for 6 assorted empanadas. The beef empanada is beef brisket. I also like the vegetarian arepa, but it doesn't matter what's inside, sit down with napkins ready. read more

The photo might not look too appealing but when I tell you this had to be the best arepa I've ever had I'm not exaggerating! It was so fresh and hot and so much juice dripped every time I took a bite. Not to mention there was so much meat and the arepa, you definitely get your money's worth. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the area !! read more

Really good food & friendly staff. I got a chicken + feta cheese + plantain + avocado salsa arepa and enjoyed it. Hubby got a pork + feta + plantain + garlic salsa arepa and thought it was good - but not as good as mine haha. The pork was a bit dry so we thought it would taste better with the more creamy avocado salsa. Overall, we had a great lunch. read more

On a blustery evening on the first day of November, I huddled into a small alcove next to a colorful mural in Zocalo Food Truck Park. Other patrons scurried in and out quickly as they picked up food from other Sunday vendors: Modern Maki, Anytime Arepa, and Mazorca Tacos. I would have used the Cash Drop app to order from from my car, but the many months of Covid-cautiousness have made me appreciate fresh air so much more. Because it was too cold to scroll though apps on my phone, I observed the little action and sound there was around me: the hollow clang of string lights hitting each other, the laughter exchanged between the chefs inside the food truck, the shifting sunlight across the painted shapes on the ground (meant as social distancing guides for those in line). The kind chef called my name, and I grabbed the brown bag of my food and hurried home. Despite the drive, my arepa was pleasantly warm and fresh tasting when I got home. Nothing was soggy or unpleasantly wilted, and the bread was even still sturdy and toasted. Inside the sturdy corncake pocket, the black beans were tender and the plantains added an interesting mashed texture to the big bites I took of the surprisingly large arepa. The corncakes (gluten free, by the way) were not as sweet like other arepas I've had, and they were also less heavy tasting. Much more like a pita pocket than a thick cornmeal cake. I loved the avocado salsa I chose for the veggie arepa, mostly because I love the sweet and herby taste that cilantro adds to spicy foods. And the side of plantains didn't taste or look deep fried, like I expected. Rather, the plantain slices were a shiny, golden color. They were chewy and sweet and are easily my favorite version of cooked plantains I've ever tried. The speediness of Anytime Arepa's preparation and high quality of its product really impressed me. Despite the slimness of its menu, the arepas are so good (and will fit a vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free diet) you wouldn't even need to try anything else. Except maybe the plantains. Be sure to get those for a simple, sweet treat! read more

This was my first time having an arepa and I was absolutely blown away. I got the veggie arepa with beans, plantains, avocado salsa, garlic salsa and cheese. It's like a delicious little homemade Venezuelan Crunchwrap but better than what you'd imagine. My boyfriend and I also got an order of the cheese torpedos to split, which comes with 6 in the order and the pink salsa. It looked small but we were full after splitting that and having an arepa each. I would eat this every day for a year, it was so good! read more

Do you ever get a craving so strong, and you know that you can't make the food on your own? That's my problem with arepas, but thankfully, there's a spot in Zócalo food park that helps me out. The food is amazing (I love the chicken!), and the pricing is great. I'll be back! read more

So good! I had never had an arepa before and didn't really know what it was. But, the lady sold me when she was explaining it! I had the chicken arepa with cheddar cheese, beans, and garlic salsa. It was so flavorful and delicious! I will definitely have to be back to try other combinations with different meats and salsas! Their ordering during covid times is super easy and safe. You take care of everything on your phone and they just text when it's ready to pick up at the food truck. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Anytime Arepa really knocked it out the park with their delicious ground-maize based dough stuffed with delicious marinated and slow roasted pork, chicken or beef. They also lets you customize your arepa with choice of cheese, black beans, plantains and either avocado, salsa, or garlic sauce (we went with all of the above). We also ordered their Party Snacks which features Cheese Torpedoes and Chicken & Beef Pastelitos, and washed it all down with their passion fruit juice. Anytime Arepa is located at the Zocalo Food park in Milwaukee. For a truly unique experience, check them out! read more

We were so lucky to have come by Anytime Arepa at the Food Truck Festival at Drexel Town Square. Having spent my summers in Venezuela, I was VERY excited to try an arepa! I ordered the Veggie Arepa and loved it. The arepa took me right back to my childhood- it was cooked perfectly. I personally don't like sweet plantains (I know, what kind of Venezuelan am I??) but I added them on so my husband could try them and he loved it. If you like the sweet/salty combo and don't mind soft textures, definitely add plátano to your arepa. Can't wait to go back and try the tequeños! read more

Used online ordering to pick-up at the Zocalo location. It was easy and on a Friday night, my order was done quickly! I had a pork arepa with Monterey and cheddar cheeses, plantains, and avocado and garlic salsas. It was sooo tasty!! Had tortilla chips at home so got an extra avocado salsa to eat with them as a side dish. Will be back! read more

Anytime Arepa is awesome! I tried it for the first time today and I will most certainly be back soon. I followed the order of another Yelper on here and chose the beef arepa with black beans, feta, plantains and the avocado salsa. Just. Wow. It was savory and delicious. The beef was tender and the arepa itself held up well given all the fillings that were in it. I have not had arepas at other places so I do not have references to compare this place to but our experience was awesome. 3 arepas were ready in about 10 minutes. We ordered at the food truck, but you can order through your phone too. The whole Zocalo food park is taking wearing a mask and social distancing very seriously so I also felt super comfortable eating there during this time. Thank you Anytime Arepa for an awesome meal today! Can't wait to try other options next time! read more

Chicken arepa was so delicious. When I first got the box I was worried it wouldn't be enough food, but it was stuffed and very filling. Easily my favorite thing I've had in the Market Hall. read more

Either of their locations constantly have fresh to order food worth the price. One of the favorite stops at zocalo.

Yum! Stopped here on a random Friday for lunch. Arepa was TASTY and very substantial. I got the pork / black bean / plantain / jack cheese with spicy salsa. Highly recommended! read more

Anytime Arepa is probably my favorite food truck in Zocalo!! It's so unassuming and even the pictures on the truck don't seem that impressionable but WOW. I got the pork arepa and added cheese, salsa, and - best of all - plaintains and it was all I could think about even after ordering and eating food from every other food truck. I don't know how just some meat and stuff in an arepa could taste SO GOOD but it does. The pork was tender and flavorful and the sweetness of the plaintain added that sweet and savory element that I honestly think about all the time. I might go as far as saying this might be one of my favorite foods in MKE read more

I went here to celebrate an occasion with my girlfriend and we weren't disappointed. I don't know exactly what it is that I ate, but arepa IS for anytime. It's located along side some other food trucks, so if you're with picky eaters you'll be able to split up and try some of the other things, but Anytime Arepa is the star in my opinion. You don't have to struggle with menu choices, really just choose what type of meat or lack there of and wait for deliciousness. Perfect on a sunny day. We Will be returning and I would definitely recommend it. read more

My husband and I were looking to try something new and decided to check out Zocalo's, where we found Anytime Arepa. I've never had Arepas and didn't know what to order. The woman working there was so friendly and nice. We asked her to surprise us with whatever was good. The arepas were amazing to say the least. I was honestly blown away at how tasty they were and so was my husband who isn't normally very impressed by food. Highly recommend! read more

Discovered arepas in Chicago but Anytime has them beat. Literally one of my favorite food options in the Milwaukee area...we've tried beef, pork, and chicken and love them all.

The people are great too!:) read more
