The arepas we had were fire. Really really good and super fresh. This is our second time here and it's literally just as good as the first time if not better. I only did 4 stars because the service is not that good, not very friendly or helpful... we experienced this both times. The lady who brought it to our table was super nice though. The store front itself seems pretty clean though. read more

I'm being a little generous with my review for now, pending a repeat visit. I came in specifically looking for an arepa de pabellon, but they happened to be out of pabellon on this weekday afternoon (slightly after the lunch hour), so I settled for a chicken lunch platter. While the food didn't taste bad, I found the chicken to be rubbery and the maduros to be a little oily. The highlight was the lentil soup that came with the lunch - it was plentiful and delicious. Service was very good, and the place seemed spotlessly clean. I'll return for the arepa when I'm in the area next, and will leave an updated review then... read more

So my thing with reviews is that sometimes they could lack a star or two because of quality of delivery or pick up service performance. Unfortunately, to-go orders can be rushed and thus not be up to par in presentation and-or quality. I love having a little Venezuelan catered lunch here and there. The first time here was great! Second time was under delivered by a big difference. I'll give it a third shot just to see which one was more accurate. My go-tos -beef patacones read more

It's been a while since I ordered here but I tried to give it a try again. And for what!! To not have the food ready when they said it will be ready in 15/20 minutes. Never AGAIN coming here again! And the food ok read more

La peor comida Venezolana que he probado, mal presentada, refrita y con un monton de aceite viejo.... no lo recomiendo para NADA!! eL PATACON, es horrible. read more

We had the patacones of beef combo really good and tasty. Came with fries and different sauces. We had it with green plantain. It came with fries and a drink. Everything was so good and tasty the fries were a bit salty but overall the patacon was great. The service was nice they took our order in the front then we sat down to eat they brought it to us our meal. The place was nice relaxing with good music. The prices weren't bad for our meal. I would definitely recommend. read more

How have I never tried Venezuelan food before?! Staying in a hotel nearby, this place caught my eye. Just the pictures alone were making me crave something that I've never even had before. So of course, I had to try a few things on the menu. The Patacones with beef was outstanding! Never had plantains in such a manner. To top that off, I also had beef empanadas and a couple of Tequenos. Needless to say, I will be stopping by again sooner than later to try more of their selection. read more

My personal experience with Maxi Arepa has been amazing. The first time I tried there arepas, I was surprised by how simple yet comforting it was. What I love most is how versatile arepas are--you can fill them with cheese, meat, eggs, or anything you like, and they still taste incredible. They feel homemade and comforting, like the kind of food that makes you slow down and really enjoy what you're eating. The employees here are so sweet and the service was great. The chicken is very juicy and has an amazing flavor which makes it better. If you're ever looking for a arepa place this is an amazing place to go too! read more

This was my first time trying Venezuelan Food and I decided to try a cachapa. The girl behind the serving area was super sweet and told me all about the dishes and what to expect etc I enjoyed the food but it was too sweet for my taste buds. Not anyone's fault as I knew it was a sweet dish. But I am very happy I tried this popular street food, and I am ready to sample other Venezualan food! read more

Have you ever had a craving that you must have that day. It's like a overwhelming feeling and you just must have it. Well that is what to me this day. I had to have arepas that is what my my mind wanted and my body just went for the ride. I must say that I work 30 minutes from here but it I didn't mind taking the drive since I knew I was going to eat what I was craving. Thank goodness they didn't disappoint. I ordered a few things from the menu. Of course the children arepa with melted cheese and fries,a tequino and two empanadas. Can you tell I was hungry? By the time I made it home I had eaten the fries and tequino. You know fries are fries but the tequino was good. Crispy on the outside and still really hot. I got home and when I opened that arepa, I was so excited that I didn't get the picture. That arepa for me at that moment was everything I ever wanted or needed. It was stuffed perfectly with all this chicken and cheese. The empanadas I never tried because I was full but they must of been good they were gone the next morning and no one in my household was complaining. This spot deserves for you to stop by and check it out. 5/5 read more

Food was pretty good. I am a fan of the sweet arepa more than the regular one. What I wound up doing was eating the meat from my beef arepa with the sweet corn arepa. I didn't know I could stuff the sweet arepa with meat so I will do that next time. You walk up and order and seat yourself. The girl behind counter was very nice and came around to clean up our table. read more

I had arepas before and I like them. But this place is awesome! My husband didn't want to come with me because he said he doesn't want arepas. But I really wanted to check out this place based on Yelp's review. So I dragged him with me. I am so glad that I did. The place is clean and cute decor and people there were friendly. The young guy at the cashier gave a great suggestion for my choice. I ordered patacon which was delicious. The sweetness and a bit tangy flavor of sweet plantain combined with well seasoned pork and pico de gallo. I never tasted it like this so it was nice surprise. The fountain drink is included in the price. I had to take one star because the tea and Coke zero only had water coming out. It was early evening and they were out of drinks!? My husband said his burger was also good. The price went up from what I saw in the reviews but still reasonable. If you haven't tried patacon, you should definitely check this place out! read more

Where do I start... we ordered through a delivery app, after checking the status of the order it took them 30 minutes to give my order to the delivery lady. When the order arrived, I found out they had sent the the wrong item. I ordered a maxi arepa combo and they sent me a pepito. That not being enough, the combo promised fries, but I never got them.... Yo make things worse.... THEY SENT ME THE PEPITO W/O ANY CHICKEN AND PORK!! The sandwich was just coleslaw with hard boiled eggs and sauces. What a horrible experience. Hopefully their service is better at the restaurant. No one should ever order delivery with them. read more

Maxi Arepa - No chicken or pork on this pepito!!! - Venezuelan Near Me - Miramar, Florida

Not happy. There is good Venezuelan food, there is bad Venezuelan food, and then there is "meh". We landed up at this place after reading spme excellent reviews. We ordered 2 cachapas, 1 reina pepiada, 3 carne mechada empanadas, 2 coffees and 1 papelon con limon. Not only it was expensive, nothing really was up to any sort of standard. The poor girl at the counter had to do everything by herself: clean, take orders, charge, serve; while the lone cook had to keep up with the orders. It wasn't a specially busy day, but you could see they could have use an extra set of hands. They were doing all they could. The atrocious music was very loud (plus, why does a Venezuelan place only play Colombian vallenatos?) The cachapas were overly sweet and lacking in flavor. They came in cold and we had to ask them to please heat them up a little bit more. The empanadas' themselves were fine, but the shredded meat was also lacking in flavor. Both the sauce and the hot sauce were... not bad, but nothing to call home about either. The coffees felt burnt. The papelon con limon was the only thing on point. As for the locale... the restroom was filthy (yes, it is the customer's fault, but your duty as a food establishment is to clean it up). The tables could be cleaner, but we could say they were acceptable, the drinks table was a mess. Overall, I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

Great food and service! I will definitely be back! Excellent customer service and ambiance to have a late lunch.

Their cachapas are the best I've tried in the Pembroke Pines/Miramar/Hialeah area. Even via UberEats they held up pretty well. A very decent size, with a good amount of cheese, and the nata (undoubtedly the best part!) read more

Delicious!!!!!!!! I found this on yelp as my job is new to the area so I wasn't sure how it would be. I walked in around 2 and there was only two people in front of me. I had ordered by phone so they had it ready. I got the sweet plantain with steak and everything. It comes with pico de gallo and cheese as well. Boy oh boy! The sweet plantain mixed with the more savory meat and pico de Gallo is to die for!!!! Seriously. My expectations were low and I fell in love. Had to keep myself from eating there again today lol. It looks very clean and the employees were nice. They have a bunch of other food items I'd like to try. read more

I was passing by and saw on Yelp that they have gluten free options. The cashier confirmed: their arepas are only corn flour, and I ate a (massive) Chicken Arepa with no substitutions and no problems. The place is also really clean and serves breakfast.

This restaurant was very good when it first opened but now the food quality is extremely down. Very cheap with the food and portions for the price they are charging. Arepa was stale and very small and apparently one very thin slice of ham and 5 pounds of cheese is considered good.Very disappointed with my experience today and I will guide others to seek another place. This is the second time I have been displeased with this restaurant. The owner needs to step in and turn this around. read more

Finally a Venezuelan place that's highly celebrated by fellow Venezuelans. The food here is thebomb.com. Service is impeccable and fast. The cachapa is incredible and always consistent - a sweet corn "pancake" filled with a perfectly soft white cheese that has a mozzarella-like texture. The tequeños, or cheese-filled rolled dough is a great snack. I typically order them to have it later with coffee. In my opinion, the star of the show is the Patacon. Grilled meat, chicken, or pork (or a combination of either) loaded with a fresh pico de gallo, garlic aioli, shredded cheese, and sandwiched between two fried green (or sweet) plantains. It is addictive and responsible for my rona 15. read more

Placed order over the phone 15 mins before arriving to only have to wait another 25 minutes for my food. They then added the wrong side to my meal and had to make a new batch. I ordered yuca and they put fries. The yuca tasted as if they were fried in old oil. The people working were moving like they didn't care to be there and had no sense of urgency. Overall, the service was horrible and food was mediocre. I would not recommend this place and will not go back. read more

Maxi Arepa - Chicha drink - condensed milk with ice and cinnamon - Venezuelan Near Me - Miramar, Florida

This is a family owned place with fast delicious food. Great representation of Venezuelan quick bites. Food: An absolute must-try is the The Arepa con Carne Asada, Patacón de Plátano Maduro, and the Cachapa were all absolutely amazing! All of them are must-haves. If you don't like sweet plantains, they also offer the Patacón de tostones (green plantain vs. the sweet). Our group ordered so much food and we didn't get a chance to try the tequeños, so I'll definitely be back for those. Drinks: They serve fountain drinks. They have freshly squeezed orange juice. Chicha and cocada are very popular and sweet Venezuelan drinks they offer here (non-alcoholic). Chicha is an extremely thick pudding-like filled with sweetness and loaded with sugar! The cocada is light in texture and consistency can be compared to rice milk. Service: friendly and average Parking: plenty of parking if you make an immediate right after entering the plaza where the day businesses are closed. read more
