i remember when this place was just a little stand in a parking lot. They have come a long way and it just goes to show how great their food and customer service is. I still remember going there for the firs time, ordering and getting an ice cold passion fruit drink in 120 degree vegas heat. I inhaled my passion fruit drink because I was sweating like a pig, and the owner offered me a free refill while i was waiting for my food. I still remember that moment and any chance I get when a friend comes to town or i meet someone and they have not had an arepa before, i take them to viva las arepas for some local las vegas love. BTW, the Arepas are amazing.
