Now for the arepas we got a chicken one and a beef, then shared, let me say both were incredible! The corn cakes were thin and cooked perfectly and held up to the massive amounts of filling stuffed inside. So flavorful the chicken salad with avocado delicious, the beef with cheese and sweet plantains, so many flavors and textures, one bite and you just wanted more! We destroyed these, no leftovers, so good! oh definitely get some of the cilantro sauce too! loved it , can't wait to visit again!

I got the pabellon arepa and taqueños to go and there was a very short wait (they make the arepas fresh!), but it was so good.

All in all, a very authentic, local spot.

The payment device was even clean! Haha! I do not play about food safety and cleanliness.

We had the cheese Cachapa (so good!) - perfect mix of sweet with the corn pancake like wrap and the stringiest meatiest cheese inside. The green sauce and garlic sauce I had in the side too, wowza! And the sweet plantains, those things are just one of my favorite foods. And we had the chicken arepa #1 La Reina Pepiada! I wish there were words that could describe how delicious it was. My mouth watered with every single bite.

Perfect for the whole family! We had the Bendeja Mediana. Between the steak, the beef on a stick, sausage, ribs, cachapas, tostones, I cant say what was best. The bite of steak with the cachapa, the ribs and tostones, we couldnt get enough, and unbelievable to us even that we got through most of it. Here my son discovered how much he liked ropa vieja style empanadas. He had them back to back, and it was one of the best I have ever had.
