‼Location has changed‼ Now at 3095 Peachtree Ind Blvd Suite 120, Duluth GA 30097. -Only a few miles down P.I.B. from original location. This family restaurant has always hit close to home (vzlan immigrant 2010), as one of the first Venezuelan Restaurants in Duluth (if not the first!). It was honestly heartbreaking driving my the OLD location (2870 PIB) for almost a year hoping they'd return... and they're back!!! Mi gente Venezolana--- EPA is back with Stephanie Viloria as the Head Chef after receiving professional status & training in Spain. Bringing the new 'Haute Cuisine' add-on to its original name. 100 Sanitation score! Smaller than original location but the rebranding and nee curated space reflects elevated quality of food, service, and overall ambiance. Clean + equipped restrooms (for women). Excited to see how the music area is utilized during events! I apologize I did not take photos of actual food as we ate as soon as we were served, but I have attached some photos of the new menu, space, & the family behind the magic. All photos taken by me except for screenshots of their Instagram page! read more

We were excited about the Father's Day menu as it had items we liked. Arrived at 1230. Placed our order and it arrived at 220 p.m. Almost 2 hours. And the food was extremely disappointing. Will no be back. read more

The best Venezuelan empanadas ever !!!! I tried the "carne mechada" and "mariscos" empanadas. Delicious!!!! Excellent customer service and the restaurant ambience was detailed clean very nice. read more

A decent arepa place. It was empty when we visited but the food still came out fresh and tasty. Friendly service! Only complaint is, it would have been nice if they had any sauce to go with togo orders. Overall a good place to grab Arepa. read more

Arepas...... pastelitos... tequeños.... cachapas... mandocas.... This should be enough to tell you to stop by and give EPA a try. Friendly service and good Venezuelan food that won't hit the pockets too deep like other Venezuelan spots. I highly suggest you order a CHICHA drink while you're in... just trust me. Their space inside is a bit on the small side but you typically have a table to sit at. Service is great and friendly and will help you decide on food if you're not familiar. Love Epa and the energy the owner brings!!! Check them out!! read more

Came in for Arepas con queso the other day and they were amazing! The restaurant was pretty small and not crowded. There is some seating but it's not formal dining or anything. I didn't have to wait long and they made them and had them ready to go within 10 minutes. They were so much bigger than I was expecting and very filling. I would only order 1 next time! I could smell them in my car the whole way home and couldn't wait to try them and they definitely were even better than I expected. The photo was taken in my car but by the time I got home the cheese had melted and they were perfect! I really have nothing negative to say. The staff was very friendly and it was overall a great experience. 10/10 recommend :) read more

We saw cachapas on FoodTV one day and thought, we have to find those in Atlanta! We drove all the way from Midtown to visit Epa! since there really aren't any options in town and boy are we glad that we did. The food was *amazing* to say the least. The pastry covered cheese sticks alone are worth the drive. So delicious. Turns out our server was the owner's son and he could not have been nicer and explained all the menu options to us and gave us some excellent suggestions. The place is a cute space behind the mini mall. Looks like they have a small outdoor patio as well which will be nice when the weather gets warmer. During the weekends they have live music. We can not wait to go back. read more

Cheap Arepas, and I think depending on what you get it could be very fulfilling. Some of them aren't as fulfilling though. Epa! Come Arepa is a very small take out shop and if you ordered ahead of time it's a quick in and out type of ordeal. The choices of the arepa should probably guide you to your decision. For me I wanted to try a little bit of everything. But the arepas that stood out for me was the ones filled with meat. I would say if you want to plain it out with some cheese, go for it, but for me it was a little too bland. The chorizo was the best, as it was flavorful and satisfying. The others that I tried were alright, but they would need a sauce to make it more flavorful I think. Just eating it by itself wouldn't cut it for me. Overall, this place is definitely a place to try out. I would pick the arepas that sound the most exciting, and go from there! I would maybe come back here, but I would eat the Arepas fresh as take out it wasn't as hot as I would have wanted them. If you do take it out I would definitely recommend to reheat before eating. read more

3.5 out of 5 Venezuelan food is probably not for me. It's too plain and salty. I've had it before and even though I did enjoy it. It's not my favorite. I don't think I could eat it again. Ever. This is a cute Venezuelan place. Service is great. Just not loving the food. I wish I could rate this place 3.5 and I couldn't rate it a 4 cause I'm not a fan of it. My coworker and I came by and we both thought the food was too salty and both got areapas. I got black beans and cheese while she got chicken avocado. I feel the arepas would've tasted better with spice, onions, and cilantro added. I wanted the whole Venezuelan feel. We even ordered desserts - flan and a cream dessert. I also got the apple juice. The fan was a bit dense and not that great. I've had better. The cream dessert was very plain and not my favorite. The apple juice is prob the best I got from the meal but it was not fresh. Oh yeah, also got a cheese empanada too, it was fried and not that good. It's worth a visit you wanna try Venezuelan food but if you want more flavors, this isn't it for you. 62/2021 read more

My husband and i tried this location for lunch one day. We were in the mood for some venezuelan food. The staff was friendly, and assisted us with a few options to try. We started off with some very yummy cheese sticks (i am sorry, i do not recall the official name for it). Amazing! From there, we sampled a few empanadas (beef, potato, etc). They were all very good. My husband had a beef arepa. He said it was pretty good. I also had a cachapa - it was just ok in my opinion (way too much cheese on top). May try this place again if in the area. read more

I somehow came across this very new Arepa restaurant on Yelp. I bookmarked it, and told myself that I have to try it asap. They are located on PIB right next to Duluth Package Store. I came on a Friday afternoon around 3pm. Lunch rush was definitely over because no one was in line to order food. I got the #7 which was the carne asada arepa and came topped with avocados, pico de gallo and some sauce. It was really good!! There were hugeee chunks of carne asada, and although it was slightly on the dry side, the flavor was definitely there. I'm an arepa newbie, so not sure how they rated amongst other arepas, but they were good to me! They were out of some items that I wanted to try because they had just finished a lunch rush. Bummer. My sister is vegetarian, and they happy removed the meat off of the arepa for her. They cook everything to order, so be prepared to wait. I think we waited around 15 minutes. I suggest calling in the order beforehand if you're on a time crunch. My only issue is there was no AC inside. I was dyinggggg and so glad I opted to get take-out instead of dining in. I wouldn't have survived haha. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving arepas! read more

Looked like your typical small / hole in the wall culture food. But yikes I was wrong. The food was fantastic and FILLING! I need to learn how to stop eating next time I come see them. The bathrooms were very clean and so were the folks attending in the main service area, no issues there. A tad small for sitting - however, they also have a better and bigger area (just walk/drive around the building) with Music and a totally different ambiance, very good vibes! They had live music that night, and it was packed and fun. No alcohol, but the food and drinks made up for that. Take a chance ask for "Cachapas" or "Arepas read more

Epa! Come Arepa - This is the main entry, but if you drive around the building to the back, they also have a sit down area with music (sometimes live) - Venezuelan Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

We loved this fantastic hole in the wall. We went in for brunch and ordered tequeños, arepa de pabellon, and arepa con jam on ya queso paisa. Came out fresh and hot. The cheese sticks were perfectly fried, soft shells with a slight dusting of flour that complemented well with the cheese. I love arepas, so it was nice to try some authentic tasting Venezuelan arepas! My old roommate and her mom who came to town made some delicious homemade Venezuelan cuisine. I highly recommend this place!! read more

EPA come arepa was pretty good. The food was fresh and comes out pretty fast . I think it's a lil pricy for the size you get and no side or drink. read more

This is the BEST Venezuelan street food you will find in the greater Atlanta area. Definitely worth every penny. We ordered beef and cheese patties to start and in the end ordered more because they were so good. We also tried the brisket arepa with cheese and it was full of flavor. My favorite drink is the brown sugar lemonade the have, a MUST try. The service was excellent, the place was clean and decor was cute. I will definitely visit again. read more

This is a Venezuelan restaurant where you can eat arepas which are more fulfilling, taste better and cost less than a hamburger. The people over the counter were nice. The restaurant is open until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays which is a great option for late eating if you are in the area. It would be great place for breakfast and from Monday to Friday they offer Lunch Specials. read more

This is a little GEM hidden in Duluth, I highly recommend coming here if you haven't given it a try. Their Arepas, Empanadas, their soup. It is all so rich in flavor and so delicious. Every bite is made with love and effort. It is amazing how great their food is for its price. The ingredients taste like quality. And I'm in love with it. It's my second time coming back in the span of 3 days. read more

We got the beef arepas! They were amazing. 100% would recommend this place. The food was filling, the staff was friendly, and the place is very nice and clean. If you are in the area you should definitely stop by!!!! read more

Yes. If you are ever in North Atlanta and feel like having some authentic Venezuelan food then you have to put this place on your list! If authentic isn't your thing, you may not enjoy this place but I was craving it...so...I got it! (NOTE: 4 stars for service/the apps). I called in my to-go order and immediately the woman asked if I spoke Spanish (in Spanish) and I know enough to get by, but opted for English. Please note they only have one employee who speaks English and is not fluent (so be kind) :)) . When she got on the phone I ordered a beef empanada, steak and cheese arepa, and order of tequenos (delicious fried bread dough wrapped around thick salty mozzarella). Everything was ready in 15 minutes and was piping hot. There was plenty of parking as this place is located at the end of a small shopping center. There were people eating inside of the small space and you wait in line to place your order which they will bring to you if you are dining in. The empanadas are on the smaller side but the price is reflective of that. The tequenos come about 4 to an order and are average in size. In my opinion these items are stellar and I would return for these two menu selections alone. I obviously came to try the arepas....but sadly I didn't care for them (and I've had some great arepas). Sadly the steak was overdone, lacked flavor, and was chewy. Now, be warned the arepas are HUGE as in, I literally had half of one per day. So this order lasted me 3 days (the first day belonged to the tequenos and empanda)!!! All in all I would HIGHLY recommend this place if you are on a budget as almost all of the items are under $5. And again, please do yourself a solid and try the empanadas and tequenos. Maybe the other arepa options are better but I think I'll just stick to a craving for the former items. read more

Venezuelan food is the best, good service and friendly staff, the chupe they serve on Sundays is the best

Walked in after golfing across the street and felt I was transported into a Venezuelan shop far from Duluth. All customers seemed to be Venezuelan and speaking Spanish. The menu was a bit hard to read as limited English and the digital menu at the counter kept rotating. So I asked the nice girl for recommendations and she suggested a black bean arepa, good choice. It was #5 on the digital menu. It's self serve ordering but the girl was nice and welcoming. My dad had a chorizo with light green sauce which he enjoyed. Especially liked the crispy yet soft bread and the friend potatoes with cheese at the top of the sandwich. read more

EXCELLENT Arepas. I get the beef with gouda cheese on the crispy arepa. Fantastic sandwich. Friendly staff.

The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Some of the employees don't speak much English, and the health rating is only 88, but the atmosphere is great. The dining area had always been clean when I've visited, and it is usually a hopping place in the evening. I highly suggest the #4! read more

Great lunch! We came for a late lunch with a large group of people and made ourselves at home. The place is small, it only has a few tables, but the food comes out pretty fast and it's all hand held food so no dishwashing or mess. We tried just about everything and enjoyed it all. The chicken empanadas were excellent and the arepa special was fantastic. This is definitely a place to check out! read more

The service was great but unfortunately when we saw it was ranked 88 by the health department which is below the standard .

We got take-out from here tonight and it was awesome. The flavors were good without being strong and way everything was put together was perfect. I had not expected the sandwich with the plantains as bread to be so good, but somehow it just worked really well. The corn cake was also a surprise. The cake itself was sweet and fresh tasting. The inner cheese was just the right combo of slightly salty and stretchy. Reminded me of a thicker, hand pulled mozzarella. The outer cheese was probably crisper when it was first done, but it survived the ride home and me munching my way thru the plantain sandwich before i tried it and it was still a great consistency. The empanadas were a real treat. Crispy outside, pillowy soft inside. The spices were flavorful but no heat. We will be going here again and soon. read more

Stopped by to give this place a shot and loved it. The number 8 "Marachua" was delicious and extremely flavorful. I recommend getting it with the pernil (pork). Juicy and the texture is something special with the cheese they put inside. Also make sure to grab a mini empanada for 99 cents! I had the seasoned ground beef one and wish I had a few more! read more

We love Venezuelan food so we look forward to eating there. Placed a to go order and left. When we got home we were missing one item. Oh, well, it happens. We ate and enjoyed about half of the items we had... Until the next day, when four out of five of us spent a lot of time in the bathroom. The four of us ate fried food. The fifth did not and was fine. read more

I've been several times since they opened... the food is always excellent! My favorites so far are the Roast Pork Arepa and the Chicken Empanada. Everything is made to order so plan on waiting 10-20 minutes for your food depending on how busy they are when you arrive. It's definitely worth the wait! read more

One Saturday afternoon I googled places to eat when driving to Gwinnett and Epa came up. I love Arepas so decided to try it. This place is DElish. I had the pork and hubby had the chicken arepas. Both were good. Meat seasoned well and cooked to order. You must have the empanadas! We had chicken and beef and it was sooo GOOD. The prices are affordable, the service was great. Go try it!! read more

Wow! This place is great! The food is authentic and takes me back to Venezuela. It's a shame so many Americans aren't familiar with Venezuelan food because they don't know what they are missing. I got a couple of arepas and some chicha. Both arepas were great but the reina pepiada was outstanding. The chicha was delicious as well. The back area where most of the seating is seemed like a lot of fun and made me want to go back on a weekend night. The people that work there are VERY friendly and generous. You can tell the food is made with love and the owners make you feel welcome. I only wish it was closer to where I live so I could go more often but it's definitely worth the trip from wherever you are. I can't wait to go back. read more
