We're talking arepas and this new location on Rainbow continues to deliver, matching the quality of the LV Blvd location with even friendlier service.
Essentially a reconstituted milled sweet corn fried bread (masarepa flour, salt, water), split then stuffed with everything from wood fire grilled, well seasoned beef to a roasted pulled pork, to tender black beans and melting cheese. All three by the way are very good. Adding optional additional cheese, avocado, and squirts of their Venezuelan style salsa further kicks up the flavor.
Top props to the arepa pabellon, a right fine combo of the grilled beef, black beans, fried plantains, and cheese.
An order of fried tostones (pressed, fried plantains) or fried yucca makes a perfect, starchy side.
While they may look small, don't be fooled, these babies are dense and stuffed.
Very reasonably priced, around $5.50 - $8.00 with all the possible additions.
Simple and solid.
