    Amy O.

    Doggi Arepas was our very first stop upon arriving in Miami.. yes, luggage and all! And let me tell you, it set the tone for an unforgettable culinary experience. This isn't just a place you enjoy and move on from. This is the kind of spot you continue to talk about long after your trip ends, the kind of hidden gem you excitedly recommend to family and friends the moment they mention heading to Miami. It left such an impression on me that I know I'll be coming back every time I return to the city. Let's start with the menu.. it's extensive, diverse, and absolutely packed with flavor. Doggi Arepas offers an incredible variety of traditional Venezuelan dishes with a FUSION. From Arepas and Empanadas to Parrillas, Sopas, Ceviche, Pepitos, Burgers, Hot Dogs, Patacones, Chicken, Steaks, and even fresh salads, there's something for every craving. They also serve freshly squeezed juices, like passion fruit and orange, that complement the meal. Now, onto the standout dishes: *Yuca Fries with Cheese - $4.99 These cassava fries are fried to absolute perfection. It's crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. Topped with freshly shredded Venezuelan queso blanco, they strike the ideal balance between rich, savory, and comforting. A simple, yet deeply satisfying appetizer. *Tajadas "The Arepa Guru" - $11.99 This dish completely blew me away and is easily my favorite item on the menu. Think perfectly caramelized sweet fried plantains sandwiching grilled Venezuelan cheese, all topped with tangy nata (a rich, creamy sauce) and more shredded queso blanco. The interplay of textures and the sweet-and-savory flavor combo is nothing short of magic. I've literally been dreaming about it since I left. If you try just one thing, let it be this! *Patacón de Churrasco - $15.99 This dish features a crispy green plantain base stacked with marinated churrasco steak, fresh lettuce, tomato, avocado, and shredded cheese, all drizzled with Doggi's special house sauces. The steak is incredibly tender and well-seasoned with herbs that brighten the dish, while the crunch from the plantain gives it a satisfying bite. Every component works in harmony to create a bold and flavorful experience. *Arepa La 10 - $15.99 A perfectly grilled arepa filled with marinated churrasco, grilled paisa-style cheese, and a house-made chimichurri that ties everything together beautifully. The grilled cheese is slightly crisp on the outside and gooey within.. adding an indulgent richness that elevates the entire dish. The chimichurri adds a zing of herbaceous brightness that brings balance and depth. *Arepa de Pabellón - $13.99 A Venezuelan classic done right. It's shredded beef, black beans, sweet fried plantains, and that signature white cheese. The flavors come together in a way that feels like comfort food elevated to a new level. The beef is juicy, the plantains are golden and sweet. *Empanada de Carne - $3.99 A classic favorite. Its crispy crust holds in a warm, savory carne filling that's moist and flavorful. These are perfectly handheld bites of joy. In every single dish we tried, you can tell the ingredients are high-quality and thoughtfully prepared. The attention to flavor, texture, and authenticity is consistent throughout the entire menu. It's not often you find a place where every single item you order is a standout, but Doggi Arepas delivers on every front. Whether you're stopping by for a quick snack or settling in for a full meal, you're guaranteed to leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. Doggi Arepas isn't just a restaurant--it's an experience, a taste of Venezuelan culinary culture that stays with you long after the last bite. Highly, highly recommended! My ONLY complaint that I unfortunately have to mention is that even-though we were only a party of 2. Our server didn't mention to us that gratitude is included so we ended up tipping about 45%-50% of our ENTIRE bill without realizing it. We DOUBLE TIPPED. But, this is our mistake for not double-checking, a fair warning to people who are visiting!

    Portion size is an absolute joke and nowhere near what the portion size is as seen in the pictures, and it's over priced compared to other places. Incredibly small portions and over priced. Not worth it. 1st and 3rd photo are actual size. 1st photo you can see how small the meat portion is and other ingredients are. 3rd photo you can see how small the bowl depth is. 2nd photo with white background is the menu photo. Vastly different portion size from what you actually get. Shrinkflation and deceptive marketing is real. Prices per menu item should be significantly reduced to appropriately reflect the small portion size, or the portion size per menu item should be significantly increased so that customers actually get an appropriate portion size for what they're paying. 1 star. Doggi's Arepa Bar you can do much, much better.

    Sopa de res (pequeño)
    Priscilla L.

    this place.... where do i start.. I recently moved to the area and let me tell you, this is probably one of my favorite local spots to eat at. i will be honest and say the parking lot is not big enough for this little shopping center--given how full the restaurants can get at any given moment. There is street parking available, so do a lap before considering giving up haha. I like to order take-out from Doggi's. It's usually no more than a 20 min wait. My go-to is the sopa de res that comes with two cheese arepas. This combo meal is sooooo fire. you have the warmth from the soup and then that savory taste from the arepas. i take my time eating it . You can tell it is made with so much love. I've also had their empanadas which are a good size for the price. And I've eaten at the actual site before; also packed, but the wait was not bad at all. I don't know any other Venezuelan spot in the area (besides the bakery next door) and I don't think I care to find out. This spot is just that different. Highly recommend going for any meal. food is consistently good and the staff is very nice.

    AREPA LLANERA

    Yainelys & Estefany provided excellent service to me and my friend, extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend stopping by this spot if you're in the area. The food was fresh and delicious, and not only that, the service was speedy and friendly. No trouble accommodating for dietary restrictions. Seated us immediately and food was served within less than 20 minutes. Pictures don't do it justice!!

    Ana D.

    Food was delicious and fresh. The variety of arepas are amazing. Service was friendly and fast. Would definitely recommend.

    Amanda N.

    Jean Guille was an attentive and kind waiter. Food tasted amazing! I love the 3 different sauces they have.

    Rosa M.

    Even though it was a super busy Saturday, we were seated pretty fast, and the wait for the food wasn't too long. 10-15mins tops. The server was super cool, and was able to explain the dishes and recommended things for us to try. It was our first time here and definitely won't be the last. The portions are pretty big and the tequenos were DELICIOUS! Small bites of crunchy and cheese heaven! The restaurant is small and a bit loud but totally worth it.

    Passion Fruit Juice
    Anthony B.

    Very very very good. If you want authentic Venezuelan food in the Miami area, this is the spot. The natural passionfruit juice was amazing, and I loved the Cachapa with grilled beef and cheese. Service was excellent and the ambiance was very fresh with lively music, great for families! Overall, very delicious, I will come back!

The service is attentive, and the food is excellent -- both in flavor and presentation. It's a place we have genuinely enjoyed visiting. However, during our most recent visit, there were a few concerns that stood out. First, we noticed that the prices listed on the menu did not match the prices on the receipt. While the differences were only a few dollars, it's important for pricing to be transparent and consistent to avoid confusion. We also really enjoyed the live music -- it created a wonderful atmosphere. However, once the band went on break, videos from the same artist played for over an hour. In our opinion, the content seemed directed toward one specific culture. Given that this is South Florida, where multiculturalism is such a big part of the community, it would be great to see entertainment that reflects and embraces a broader audience. Finally, while the food remains very good, the portion sizes feel small for the current pricing. It seems that prices have increased noticeably, and the value does not feel quite as balanced as before.

    I haven't given a bad review in a long time but I couldn't pass on this one. Food was so greasy…read morethat it made me sick. The meat was overcooked and oily at the same time. The plantains and fries tasted like re-used old oil. Additionally, we waited 35 minutes u til someone came to take our order. The one thing they had going for them was the live music which although the singers were not great, it helped create a festive atmosphere.

    This place is demasiado brutal, vale!…read more Pepito's Plaza Brickell is pure Venezuelan soul wrapped in an arepa. The La Pelúa is the real MVP, packed hasta el tope with juicy carne mechada and melted yellow gouda that hits en el alma. It's not just tasty, it's arrechísima. You bite into that and boom, you're back on the streets of Caracas, eating sabroso and forgetting you're even in Brickell. And the papitas fritas? Una vaina seria. Super crispy, golden, and totally addictive. You'll say you're just gonna try a few... mentira. You'll crush the whole thing before you're halfway through your arepa. Can't miss the toppings like alioli, garlic, guasacaca, spicy, or the Venezuelan punch, tartar sauce. Now let's talk billete: the price is a ganga. For what you get, massive portions, flavor for days, and that homemade feel, it's honestly a steal. In this part of Miami? That's a miracle with guasacaca on top. Plus, the crew? Unos cracks. Full-on Venezuelan warmth, quick service, good vibes, and they treat you like you've been coming there since chamito. Yasimar (pelo largo negro chick, Elizabeth, Lizbeth, Juan, and Efrain, gracias por contagiar real pana energy all around. In short: La Pelúa + crispy fries + price that doesn't hurt + puro sabor criollo + a killer team = 20/10. Go, eat, and leave saying: "¡Coño, qué brutal está esto!"

The first thing that caught my attention was the beautiful outdoor setup. The lavender accents, the adorable decorative bicycle, and the refreshing mist made such a difference on a hot Miami summer day. It's the only restaurant on the block offering that kind of cooling system, and it's such a thoughtful touch. The outdoor seating is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for 2 groups of 4 without feeling crowded. As soon as I walked inside, I was greeted by a warm, cozy atmosphere. Everything was spotless the dining area, the simple yet elegant table settings, and the beautiful pastry display. You can tell they take pride in every detail!! What truly made the experience unforgettable was the customer service. The owner was there personally welcoming guests and made me feel right at home. Everyone had genuine smiles, and before I had even ordered, she generously offered me a complimentary cachapa. That level of hospitality is rare and speaks volumes about how much they care about their customers. The energy of this place is incredible warm, welcoming, and full of heart. It's the kind of restaurant that makes you want to come back, not just for the food but for the experience. I'm so happy I found this hidden gem, and I'll definitely be returning. Highly recommend!
