Great little place. The De Pabellon and La Sureña arepas were excellent
JillianJanuary 7, 2015
La surena is delicious. Pop an Altoid or two afterwards because your breath will be kicking!
Ankit SablokJune 30, 2014

You MUST order the La Del Gato. Even meat-eaters love it. Read more

For a taste of Venezuela, chomp into one of these stuffed corn-flour arepas. Feeling indecisive? Try the La Popular sampler of three different, traditional varieties. Read more

The tinto de verano was so refreshing. Perfect for the warmer weather. 👌🏼
Abhishek SenOctober 3, 2015

Try the Caña And Limón Drink - Sweet and tangy with a slight taste of Tamarindo. So good!

Delicious arepas. Be prepared to wait for a table.
Joshua WinataNovember 17, 2011
The Panelling would definitely be my top recommendation. Love the sharp cheese and mellow plantain flavors.
Erik BurbullaAugust 6, 2014
Anything with chorizo in it. Also, the pulled pork special
KassMarch 21, 2016
El pabellon is the only way to go. Guac + plantains are solid

If you see the arepa with pork shoulder, then that's the one you get
Nameet PaiJanuary 21, 2011
Ask for the chingona sauce if you'd like to make your arepas really hot! They keep it in the fridge, so you have to ask for it.
Thomas PajorApril 25, 2015
Nice atmosphere. Get two Arepas for a full meal; they are delicious.

Sherwin SuFebruary 22, 2014
Yummy! Get the shredded beef or pork shoulder
Chloe HillJanuary 14, 2015
When the restaurant proper is full, grab a seat at the adjacent counter-service, take-out spot.
Rosi Liriano FacendaMarch 11, 2016
Everything here is delicious. The lunch special 9.75. +tax.

Community contributor James Traub's favorite arepa is "the musical-sounding La de Pernil — roasted pork shoulder with tomato and mango sauce." Read more
Ignacio FinolMarch 27, 2012
It gives me an authentic taste of home, however it's cramped/understaffed. I think they're actually trying to suppress demand. Go to the Brooklyn one if you can. (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

A-8 De Pabellon: shredded beef, black beans, white salty cheese, and sweet plantains. Delicious!

Go early (before 8pm) to skip the lines, or just hang out outside if you don't mind the wait. Read more

Get the guacamole and chips. Best I've ever had. Chips are made from plantains and taro root.
Daan V.October 27, 2011
Almost every arepa can be ordered with the meat or cheese substituted for baked tofu.
