I had a Arepa Llanera for lunch. So did my friend. It was like a steak taco in a pita but it wasn't a taco or a pita! It was Venezuelan. The bread was fabulous and I loved the sauce they used, The steak was tender and plentiful. We were looking for something new and we found it! The place was clean and friendly. They also have Mexican dishes but we didn't try it. We can't wait to go back and try some other dishes. read more

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

Left with a full and happy tummy! So glad to have finally made it to Aleida's! Beautiful decor- you're supposed to feel like you're sitting outside. The restaurant is filled with beautiful colors and decor. You enter and walk straight to the back of the restaurant to order. It was our first time so we grabbed a few menus and sat at a table to look over the menu. Once ready we got up and walked to the back and met with the cashier (she ended up being our server and everything in between). We ordered the sampler, Arepa Llenera (3), and the Pabellón Capacha. I thoroughly enjoyed my arepa llenera, just the right taste. I wanted for nothing more. My partner was super happy with his Capacha. The only thing we wish we would have had is some spicy salsa. The Aleida's sauce was a good substitute though. Not spicy, just tasty. Service was exceptional and truly no complaints. We will be back and you should swing by too. read more

Yum yum yum! I've heard so many good things about Aleida's and I was so excited to finally try it out. The servers were so friendly, and took it upon themselves to explain what everything was when learning this was our first time there. The only problem was that I wanted to try everything on the menu! (Even though I was told they were known for their arepas.) Luckily, they have a sampler on the menu! The tequeños were so soft, despite the fried outside. The mini arepas were stuffed full and the meat inside was so tender and flavorful. The empanadas with the cheese inside were so addictive. The tacos were pretty typical, but good nonetheless. And the plantains were perfect to cut through the fried breadiness of everything else. I shared this with a friend, and we both got so full and were able to take home leftovers! I will definitely be back and I will be trying a cachapa next time! (I do wish they were open past 8pm though.) read more

Aleida’s Restaurant - Sampler - Mexican Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

The food was full of flavor and delicious! We started with the plantains and I highly recommend asking for the flat grilled cheese to go with them. We each got an arepa (Arepa Especial Aleida and Arepa Tropical) and they were both amazing! Not only was the food great but the service was terrific too! The waiter was very kind, attentive, and thoughtful. He brought us the complimentary flat grilled cheese, which did not disappoint, and even sent us home with extra plantains. We will definitely be going back! read more

The food is great, fresh and satisfying. Staff looks out for allergy-conscious eaters.

The wait staff was friendly and efficient. The food was amazing. There were a great variety of Latin American options. The staff were able to provide recommendations that were spot on. read more

Ordered the shredded beef arepas and while hefty and filled with meat, it was a bit on the salty side in my opinion and pricey compared to other arepas I've had in the past. If you've never had arepas before, it's definitely worth a try! Flavor: 4/5 Cost: 2/5 Value: 3/5 read more

Aleida’s Restaurant - Arepa Pabellon - Mexican Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Yum Yum and Yum! So good! Very vibrant cute place, with delicious food. Some of my friends had never tried Venezuelan food before, and I knew they'd love it - which they did! Highly recommend the Cachapa and Taquenos for appitizers to share with your table. All the Arepas are delish! read more

Five stars doesn't do this gem justice. We tried quite a few things but our absolute favorites were the Arepa Pabellón and Cachapa Original. There is so much flavor and everything was so good with the garlic aleidas sauce. They were very nice, explained the menu to us and walked us through what everything was and what the most popular items were. The chef came out to see how we ended up liking everything and told us everything he makes is from scratch and made from love. (Fun fact: they're from Venezuela and used to have a restaurant there!) Other things we tried: Tequeños: Reminded us of a flaky croissant filled with cheese. It was good but not the star of the show Chips & Queso: The best chips & the queso was really really good Empanadas: We tried shrimp & ground beef empanadas. Both were verrry good, the crust was flaky and flavorful and the meat was so well seasoned. Theyre located in a strip mall next to Board & Brush, the location is kind of unassuming and when you walk in it looks small but don't let that deter you - this is some of the best food we've ever had! read more

AMAZING food. Love the new space. Best. Flan. Ever. Our server was SOO NICE and thanked us for being nice to her! Makes me think shes had some rough customers. Be nice, y'all! read more

The food here is fantastic. I just wish they weren't so expensive. I usually get a chicken arepa but they are like $15+, which is quite a bit for lunch. I would love to see a smaller portion and lunch special. If so, I would come here more often. read more

We are visiting from California and like to experience things. The food was fantastic , tasty. We enjoyed choosing the sampler with a mixture of their specialties. We visited with the owner who pleasantly explained his philosophy and why they maintain excellence. They will be moving soon into a larger facility and adding a bar . read more

My brother and I had the arepas plate & the breakfast taco plate. They serve breakfast all day! Amazing, fresh, and super filling. The owners and staff were so kind & friendly that I wanted to give them a hug at the end of our meal. After a rough week at work, this was exactly what I needed. We will definitely be coming here more often! read more

Everything we tried at Aleida's was fresh and delicious. Nothing felt too heavy or processed, and you can tell everything is cooked with care and experience. The owners put great care into the decor as well - it's very well decorated for being such a tiny spot. Food - 4.5/5 - Arepa and cake were simply excellent. Tacos were a little off the mark - maybe could be a bit more tied together with cheese or fillings. But the taco plate was still a great value for money - $8 for two tacos and a small serving of chips and queso. Decor - 5/5 Service - 5/5 read more

Food is absolutely amazing! Inside the restaurant is nice, I particular like the Tv that shows a video of Latin American/Spanish speaking countries. Found it fascinating to watch. While the owner is warm and welcoming, service is slow. It took quite a bit of time to place an order and even longer to receive food. I don't recall the exact time it took to order, get the food, and eat. But I recall thinking, I wish my kids had a lot more patience. I wanna guess and say only 2 folks were working. One doing the serving and another doing the cooking. Bottom line. Great food. Absolutely amazing. Fantastic presentation. Slow service. Recommend, but not during a busy time. read more

I like the food in general but the food doesn't have a wow factor. The empanadas were good but I was hoping for more flavor from the ground beef. The shark empanada seemed under salted and spiced. But everything was definitely fresh and well prepared. read more

Forget Tex Mex food. This place puts tacos to shame. We have been multiple times now and love everything from the frozen margaritas and pita style Gordita like sandwiches to breakfast and amazing coffee, and desert. OMG the fried plantains are out of this world...my favorite especially the way the they serve them with a sour cream sauce and special white cheese. Every time we have been there we were treated like family by Benito. Where has this food been my whole life. I love this man and his business. This could be one of my favorite restaurants ever and I'm a very serious foodie. I also love to cook and I rarely find food out that I can't make as good or better. I can't touch this cuisine! The place is clean, even the restrooms are perfect. This is a top notch designed and operated business family owned and ran and you can actually feel the great vibe. read more

Cute little food stop with fun Hispanic decor. Friendly service all around! Manager was very sweet and came out to ensure that the food was good! Arepas were not my favorite. Plantains were DELICIOUS!! Bfast tacos were good too. Overall a quaint place. Not sure I'd go back but if you enjoy Hispanic food it's definitely worth a try. read more

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.

¡Feliz mes de la herencia Latinx a todos! ¡Vine hoy no solo para apoyar los negocios latinos locales sino también para apoyar a los locales! Dale! Apreas Las apreas son deliciosas y muy versátiles. Las arepas son bolsitas de harina de maíz fritas rellenas con todos los rellenos que puedas desear, como carnitas, pollo picante, batatas, frijoles negros, salsas y más. Son realmente un magnífico sistema de entrega para cualquier cantidad de sus rellenos favoritos. Pedí mi apera con pollo a la parrilla. El pollo era sabroso y tenía una cualidad ahumada que empapaba la harina de maíz. Ensalada ¿A quién no le gusta una ensalada fresca de la huerta? Las verduras de hoja verde estaban frescas y todas las demás coberturas. Mi ensalada estaba hecha a pedido con tomates, camarones, aguacate, aceitunas, tocino y cebolla roja. Esta ensalada era simple y fresca. El servicio que recibí hoy cuando recogí mi pedido fue cálido y acogedor. #Suportlocal #supportlatinxbiz read more

Came here for the first time even though I lived 10 mins away from it for 2 years. This place is so good and I'm so sad to be moving away. I got the jalapeño with grilled chicken arepa and used the aleida sauce. It's soooo good and so filling. I'm full just from one arepa. I'm going to try to come back here before we move. Wish we tried this place earlier. read more

We could not review the food because we never received any service beyond the chips and water. We were seated promptly but never saw a server at our table . She walked around and looked at us but after fifteen minutes and no further service, we left. We had water and chips. The server waved as we left . Such a poor way to deal with customers. read more

If you are in the area then Alieda's Latin Food is a must visit. This family-run business is churning out authentic Venezuelan cuisine. There is a nod to Mexican fare but traditional Venezuelan cuisine is their speciality. Everything is cooked to order, using family recipes, so do not expect your food to arrive in 5 minutes. I ordered the Pabellon Plate with shredded beef. The beef was wonderfully seasoned and with their assortment of sauces I was able to kick it up a few degrees. The sweet plantains were off the charts! Plus one ordered Combo tacos. These pastor and beef tacos were plentiful and delicious. She reports that this was one of the best tacos in the area. We are already planning a return visit to try their empanadas, seafood stew, and arepas. This is the real deal people!! Benito, the owner, stopped by and provided some additional background regarding their family history (check out their website) and their approach to using authentic family recipes. We left totally satisfied and we can't wait for our next visit. An easy 5 star review. Pro tip: No alcohol soft drinks and water only read more

The food was amazing I got the breakfast burrito. The owner was amazing and kind person. I highly recommend this place.

My first time to Aleida's restaurant and I must say it will never be my last. This restaurant is seriously a MUST TRY because they provide authentic food and the food here is superb. We had ordered multiple different Arepas and all of them was phenomenal. Beans are well seasoned. the meat is juicy and tender. The sweet plantains are the best I've ever had with it being crispy yet soft in the inside and not overly sweet. The tortilla chips are homemade and fresh. The empanadas come out piping hot and crispy. Everything is seriously made with love and season so well consistently across the board. I ordered Pabelln Burrito and it was ...... life changing. I never knew I was missing this kind of burrito in my life. The combo of rice, black beans, sweet plantains, pulled pork, cheese, and combined with the MOST Delicious leek sauce Creme was just the best thing I ate all year! This restaurant really need to bottle up that leek greenish white Creme sauce and sell it. That sauce was good on the Arepa, empanadas, and burrito. It was Creme, oniony, little bit of acid, and just so pure delicious. The Pabelln burrito came with chips and a small amount of queso. The queso was the only thing I didn't like. It wasn't cheesy and was flat but the tortilla chips qas delicious with that greenish white Creme sauce lol. The male owner was really nice and stopped by our table to personal check in with us. He told us the Creme was a family recipe but was happy to bring us extra sauce to bring home with our left overs. My dining experience was really great here. You go to the counter to place an order and then self seat. They will bring the food out when it's ready. :) Do I recommend this place? Absolutely! Family owed and the high reviews definitely hold true to this place! I drive 45 mins away just to come and enjoy their food. It's that good!!! read more

Aleida’s Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

I really hate to only give this place three stars because I truly did not have a bad experience but the food just wasn't amazing . My friend and I got the special fries as an appetizer and they were fine, I just wish the serving was bigger. Where we were disappointed was with the arepas :/ I was super excited and ordered the jalapeño grilled chicken and my friend got the breakfast special. They were close to $17 so my expectations were pretty high and unfortunately these just didn't meet the mark. The ingredients in the arepas didn't taste fresh and were in desperate need of some sauce but they charge extra for sauce here. Once we got half way through, there was no filling left and it was no longer enjoyable to eat. I don't think I would have been as disappointed if our meal was as expensive as it was. We also waited a decent amount of time for our food, like close to 30 minutes but the owner of this place was incredibly sweet so I have nothing bad to say there. read more
