Super cute spot right across from the Riverfront Esplanade! It's a small restaurant, but it has an upstairs terrace with a beautiful view--perfect weather in the low 70s made the experience even better. We ordered the Arepa sampler and the sweet plantain patacón, and both were absolutely delicious. The garlic sauce they serve with it is amazing and a must-try! If you're in the area, don't miss the opportunity to check this place out--you won't be disappointed. read more

Arepita Beach - Lively music, beautiful food and drinks. - Venezuelan Near Me - Daytona Beach, Florida

Went in excited for a yummy snack. Ordered several items. Special arepa was nothing like what they projected on screen. Pork was dry and fatty. Empanadas were greasy and not very plentifully filled. We were disappointed read more

This little unassuming place in the Riverfront Shoppes area was a hidden gem. The open air upstairs seating gave a Panasonic view of the Halifax River. The food was the real hit here. We tried the (1) Arepas Sampler - packed with meat and flavor, (2) Peach Smoothie - refreshing, and (3) Patacone - an unbelievable pseudo sandwich: shredded beef, cheese, cabbage, tomatoes, garlic sauce packed between two fried sweet plantains. The sweet savory fusion was delicious. "I'd move here for this!" read more

"Amazing Venezuelan food! I had the asado negro, cachapa, and pastelitos--everything was full of flavor and tasted homemade. The asado negro was tender and perfectly sweet-savory, the cachapa was crispy outside and soft inside with delicious cheese, and the pastelitos were fresh and paired perfectly with the sauce. Great portions, nice outdoor vibe, and friendly service. Definitely coming back!" read more

Our #117 TripleD stop if I remember correctly. The Patacon Sandwich was huge and delicious. Went with the shredded beef and sweet plantain version. Garlic sauce was the kicker. The Aguiuta E Sapo was very good too but I'd ask to add some of that garlic sauce to it myself. Banana/Pineapple Smoothies were tasty! Great service. Cool place. Great view out the front window! read more

VIEWS & GREAT FOOD :) Arepas are a South American dish made of ground maize flour with different things (rice,meat,cheese,beans plantains and so much more) Perfect to stop by for a quick & flavorful lunch while heading to the beach or just leaving the beach! The upstairs is my favorite! As it's located in the heart of downtown Daytona beach GREAT VIEWS OF BEACH ST & THE MAIN DAYTONA BRIDGE ! They have some good Spanish music playing :) I got the Arepita Pabellon, it comes with sweet plantains, beans, pulled pork, cheese it was DELICIOUS it's almost like THE original ONE.

If you need a little bit of Venezuela on Beach street then stop in. We stoped for coffee and dessert. Smooth coffee and delicious guava cookies. Great to sit outside and watch the Bikes go by during hike week. The service was very pleasant and they were open on Monday even though the door (and Yelp) did jot give Monday hours. read more

Arepita Beach - Venezuelan Near Me - Daytona Beach, Florida

My brother and I stopped in here for dinner and had a decent meal. The arepa he ordered was massive, filled with several types of meat, cheese, and cabbage. It looked delicious. I ordered a cheese arepa and was a little disappointed--it tasted good, but I would have liked it with something more than just cheese. Next time I would order differently. The restaurant itself did not have much ambiance--small tables along the wall, with condensation dripping from the AC unit above. The tables outside facing Beach Street were probably a better option. Service was prompt and efficient. I'd give this place another try next time I'm in town. read more

Having seen this place on a Food Network show, my wife and I decided to give them a try recently. The restaurant itself isn't much to speak of. It had a musty, humid smell upon walking in. You can opt to sit downstairs or walk up to the main dining, which includes an outdoor balcony (this is a long walk up). The place looks old and a little rundown. Now the food...my wife ordered the steak patacon and loved it. It was huge, meaty and tasty. I, on the other hand had the roast pork and rice (can't remember what it is called) and I asked for a soft egg on top. I found the pork to be dry, and the rest of the ingredients, including the rice and black beans, to be very bland. The cabbage was just that, plain cabbage. It could have used a little acid to break up the blandness of the dish. Unfortunately, too, my egg was overcooked, no runny yolk. I also had a beef empanada that, as you can tell from the picture, was swimming in grease. The texture of the empanada was fine and the beef was well seasoned, just too much grease. I used up most of the napkins on the table just to soak up all of the oil. The service too was a bit spotty. A pleasant young man running up and down the long stairs bringing food. It took a little while to get our meals. So, basically it's a split decision. My wife loved it and I did not. read more

If you have eaten Arepas before then don't go to Arepita Beach. They are poorly prepared, the pork and chicken is over cooked, very dry. The local is poorly cleaned and smells. I drove from Orlando to try it and it was a waste of time and gasoline. In my opinion, there has to be somewhere better to visit, but not here. Venezuelan food is tasty but mot the mess served here. read more

Food was delicious and service the attention was incredible. The place is very nice as well.

One of my favorite places, the best Arepa Pepiada I've tried. The staff are friendly and courteous. Is well located with nice space specially in the second floor. Many food options to choose from in their menu. Great Venezuelan restaurant overall! read more

To start... I love arepas! This was the best experience of a little piece of Venezuela! This counter service gem in Dayton Beach has a great friendly staff; delicious food and hand made Ponce crema! We bought a large bottle; Merry Christmas to us! lol the seating is cozy downstairs but there is more upstairs as well as outdoor seating. We want to return before we leave town... authenticity in an arepa! read more

Cute little spot for a delicious meal or snack! The arepas were pretty good, with a toasty fluffy exterior and flavorful ingredients inside. The garlic sauce was a amazing and tied everything together. They were decently sized but if you are pretty hungry, I definitely recommend ordering more food (this to me was more of a hefty snack)! The staff were very nice, and service was quick. read more

Holy goodness!!! This place was RIDICULOUS! Me and my girlfriends were visiting from out of town and the food was the best we've had in a long time! And were all picky eaters. All of the servers and cooks were so friendly and kind and took fabulous care of us! We will come back again and again! read more

Everything we ordered was delicious, I got the arepita samplers, and started with the Chicken since in my opinion it looked a bit on the dry side, but oh my was I wrong, the chicken had soaked up all the tasty juice it was cooked in, what a delightful surprise. every mini arepa from that point was even better. We also tried The sunny roll island, it was an amazing combination of sweet and savory, soft and crunchy. The shredded beef inside was cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and pack full of flavor. We will be visiting again for sure. read more

I came into town for about a week and had a few friends with me. As the foodie in the group, I usually pick the places we eat at, and I always try and find someplace local that we can't always get at home. Vacation should be about trying new experiences, and that's exactly what Arepita Beach was for us. Luckily, it turned out to be a fantastic experience and we all enjoyed it so much we came back for lunch the next day just to try it again. I'll admit, I had never had an arepea before and had no idea what one was. I've learned over the years that when I experiment with new food, I had to admit that I'm a newbie sometimes, and that's just what I did when we walked in the door. The guy working behind the counter couldn't have been nicer and guided me to some suggestions. First off, an arepea is a type of food made from ground maize dough that originated from the northern region of South America in pre-Columbian times, and is notable in the cuisines of Colombia and Venezuela. It is usually served with a protein, cheese and vegetables. Here at Arepita Beach, they are taken hot off the grill and opened up like a pita and stuffed with whatever you choose. Needing help, I asked what was popular. I was told to try the Arepita Pabellon, which was are arepa filled with shredded beef, plantain, refried black beans and shredded white cheese. It came with a small side of a garlic-based sauce that I could have licked out of the 2 oz container with my tongue. Everything was fantastic! The guy at the counter took our order and invited us to sit upstairs on the patio and he would bring our food out to us. We headed upstairs and had a beautiful view overlooking the water. We all tried something different and everyone got quiet once our food arrived. After the first bite, we all exclaimed how much we liked the food and the rest of the meal was quiet except for a few "oh my gosh, this is delicious" comments. We liked our lunch so much that we had to come back the next day. Same guy behind the counter (thankfully!) and same great food. This time I went with the Arepita Beach and got it with shredded chicken and pork, cheese, tomatoes and cilantro. While it was delicious, I think I really liked the Pabellon better. I'm going to make sure I remember so I can get it again the next time I'm in town. In fact, because of Arepita Beach, I'll be looking for a Venezuelan place that serves arepeas closer to my hometown and will get something as close to the Pabellon as I can. Seriously delicious food. Seriously super sweet staff, and seriously awesome atmosphere. Make sure you add this to your list of places to visit while you're in town. Man.. I'm gonna be thinking about this place for awhile. read more

I love arepas and last time I was here I remember it being outstanding but this time it was just solid. Too much black beans in it and not enough meat. Flavor wasnt as good this time around. If you want AC theres an upstairs where they typically have it going. read more

Went here twice while visiting from San Diego. Nice little place with very authentic Venezuelan cuisine! Reasonable too.

What an awesome hole in the wall right near the Daytona Beach! I was driving through and got the Arepita Santa Rita with Chorizo. It was amazing! I've never had anything like it and would totally get it again, maybe with different meats. My friends loved the beef and chicken ones too. We also got the set of 5 Port Empanaditas to go so we could snack on them in the car. These were not so good. Granted, they were no longer hot, but it was a far cry from the amazing Arepita I had. I would not order these next time myself. We also got a strawberry smoothie that they really liked. Try the Arepitas! read more

Excellent food and service. The Patacon was very delicious. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

When my husband and I travel we like to check out some Guy Fieri DDD restaurants because they tend to be pretty good. Arepita was no exception to this theory. I ordered a shredded beef empanada and it was very tasty. My husband ordered one of their specialty items recommended by the young man who waited on us (my apologies for not remembering what it was called). It was a massive taco-like sandwich (for reference, there is a picture of it on their menu) and my husband declared it delicious! About an hour after we left my husband realized he lost his wallet. When we called the restaurant, they confirmed it had fallen on the floor and they had it! So not only do they have great food, they are good and honest people as well! read more
