The aerapa (chicken) was delicious!! I definitely want to check out their food truck since this was a catered pop-up at my school, but I was very impressed with their menu. I just wish they were open earlier on my lunchtime so I could actually get their food for lunch instead of only for dinner time. I will definitely be back!! Service was great ambience was very fun and relaxing and both employees seemed like they really enjoyed what they were doing! Very clean and organized at my pop-up for my school!

I'm always excited to find a new restaurant to try especially when its for Colombian food…read more Found this place on Google. Its in a nice area and the plaza its in is pretty empty so parking is super easy. When you walk in theres a hostess stand and you need to wait so you can be seated. Its a cute restaurant. Has a large TV. Super casual. The server my husband and I had was super nice. We ordered: -Blackberry juice -Colombiana -Pacfico -Morcilla con papas -1 beef empanada -1 chicken empanada -Bandeja paisa The food and drinks all came out in like 5min. Super quick! The empanadas were really good, well seasoned. Morcilla was delicious! The potatos are not seasoned but you can salt them yourself. They come with 2 sauces one thats guacamole and the other was tapatio based, which was disappointing because it should come with aji. The bandeja paisa was okay. The only thing I didnt like about it was the ground beef. I will be back to try other dishes.

I was really excited and looking forward to the experience. The place is nice and the staff was…read morefriendly, but wasn't quite sure what to make of it. Came here on a weeknight and in the middle of our meal they set up speakers and there was a comedy show in Spanish. Just not what we were expecting as we were looking for a place to eat where we could have a conversation. The food had nice flavors, but the quality of the meat was hit or miss. One plate had nice tender beef while the other one was very tough.

It was first time trying venezuelan food but now it's one of my favorites because of how authentic there food is. They even have desserts, which is the tres leches. I don't even have a sweet tooth like that but it's so yummy. I definitely recommend on trying this local cuisine!!!

I ordered on DoorDash for pickup which was super easy. One heads up though, parking in the area can be tricky so I ended up having to double park briefly. Walked in, gave my name and they handed me the bag. In and out in seconds. Here's everything we got: Cantoo Tri-Set: A no brainer for a first visit since you get to try a little of everything. Everything was juicy and delicious and it set the tone perfectly for the rest of the meal. Arroz Especial Fried Rice: Loved this. Packed with BBQ pork, chicken and ham so you're getting a ton of protein in every bite. Chili Oil Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings: Has a nice kick to it and generously filled with protein. Really satisfying. Stir Fry Beef Flat Rice Noodle: Came with a lot of protein and the noodles tasted freshly made. Not too oily which I always appreciate. Spicy Garlic Fried Calamari: Crispy, garlicky and the spice level was just right, present but not overwhelming. Pollo Valenciano Rotisserie Chicken: Had to order this since it's what they're known for and it did not disappoint. Incredibly juicy and came with a thigh and drumstick. All of this food stretched across 3 meals for 2 people. The portions are generous, the prices are fair and everything was delicious. Will absolutely be back!

HEADS UP- this is NOT a restaurant‼there is one chef who sets up a "pop-up" in various locations…read more We were not aware of this at first so we walked to two different locations before finding the right one, which was at Mayes Oyster House on Polk St. Finally came across the correct location on his Instagram story at @arepasenbici. Now we know to also check his website at arepasenbici.com *WAIT TIME- our party of 3 arrived right around 7 pm. We were a bit confused upon arrival since there were no other customers, only a bartender on FaceTime and a DJ jamming out by himself in the corner. We were worried that we went to the wrong place again, but it turns out that majority of the chef's customers just orders ahead online then picks up to-go. After asking the bartender if this was the right place to find arepas, she told us to walk towards the back and meet the chef in the kitchen. Then the chef handed us barcodes to scan and we did not have to wait extremely long for our orders but it also wasn't super fast since he had other orders to take care of. *AMBIANCE- fun, loud, "going-out" type of vibes at this specific location since it is also karaoke night on Wednesdays starting at 7 pm. *QUALITY- great! This was our first time trying our Venezuelan food and definitely won't be our last. Although we have no other arepas to compare it to, we can confidently say that it was prepped with great care and skill. Love how there's also a vegan option, which is the Dom arepa! *CUSTOMER SERVICE- great! The chef is friendly and highly personable, which definitely plays a role in us wanting to support him even more! He even surprised our friend with 2 pastellitos after finding out she didn't order some when both my fiancé and I did, which was very nice and inclusive of him. *RESTROOM- bathroom available inside at this specific location. *OUTDOOR SEATING- available, but no outdoor heaters. *PARKING- no private lot available, best bet would be metered street parking on streets surrounding Polk like Bush St which is free after 6 pm!
