I have been here once before about a year ago for dinner with my boyfriend and it seemed that I…read morefailed to write a review for that visit and I can't find my food photos from back then. I came back for lunch today while in town and despite it being a year since my last visit, I remember that the food was definitely better on my last visit than it was today! Bummer. Still about 4 stars though. One thing I remember from my visit last year was just how dark they keep it in there. I get that it is important to save on electric bills, but it doesn't create the best atmosphere. Maybe invest in motion sensor lighting? I had fun looking around the huge space and taking pictures while I waited about 8 minutes for my food to be freshly prepared. I ordered one arepa with a meat mix and sweet plantains and a scoop of chocolate chip ice cream which came to $13 after tax and tip. Skip the ice cream - mine was covered in ice crystals and had a grainy taste. No me gusta. I love arepas and definitely thought mine was tasty but I think they should allow people to get up to 3 toppings in their arepa instead of just 2. My arepa definitely needed a sauce or veggie or some kind. The arepa is also not a great deal as it is 1 kind of small arepa for $8.50. The meat mix I chose was a good choice as the meat was juicy and the portion generous but I was a bit bummed I only had two thin slices of sweet plantains in my arepa. Ordering a combo is definitely your best bet to get the most for your money here. I was trying to keep my lunch small (I'll be having a big hibachi dinner tonight and don't want to be too full for that) but I didn't make the right choices at Bululu Tropical today. I'll be back for sure, but I'll definitely make a smarter food choice and avoid getting anything in the dessert freezer. Also, brush up on your Spanish before coming here! Haha! Nah, you'll manage okay if you don't... but it might help!

I had a meal at Bululu today. I've never had Venezuelan cuisine before. The combo I had was…read moredelicious and honestly a bit too much food for me. The flavors were really interesting. The sauces were awesome. The meal was delivered by a robot which was a first for me. That was pretty cool. The human staff were funny and kind. The place is very nice inside and very clean. It has a nice cafe vibe to it.
