| - Rika Arepa Express has upgraded from a food truck to a brick and mortar location on the East side! Arepa lovers everywhere should be rejoicing, because RAE's eats are delicious. Go traditional with the Pabellon or riff on chicken salad with the Reina, or stick to your specialized diet with vegetarian and vegan options!
For my first visit to this new location, I tried the chicken and sausage combo of the La Surena and it didn't disappoint: a hot packed pocket with creamy avocado slices, spicy sausage, and shredded chicken, which I smothered in their cilantro and spicy sauces. But because I'm a total glutton, I had to add on a beef empanada, which was also damn delicious.
Location has a few tables to dine-in and service is friendly. They have an $11 lunch combo that includes an arepa, plantains, and drink, as well as some breakfast options for early visitors. I am hoping they do well here in their new home!
