Reviews for Rica Arepa | Venezuelan Restaurant
We only show the 3 most relevant reviews to save you time.
First time here & first time trying Venezuelan food in general. Was a little skeptical at first because I’m always skeptical trying new food & restaurants but this place beat my expectations. Food was fresh and tasty! A little pricey but all good. I’ll pay the extra dollar for quality food any day. I gotta add, the service was great!! Will be coming back & recommending to friends and family.
The arepas we had were good we got 3. Packed with meat, beans cheese and 3 sweet plantains. We had the ceviche cups appetizer very tasty. We had cold (soda) beverages and all that was over $50.00. Side note: The server could be friendlier.
Food had delicious flavor. We ordered the pabellon and the pollo a la plancha and both were great. The garlic sauce was addicting, plantains were very soft and sweet and the soursop in milk drink was very yummy. I cannot comment on their arepas because I didn't try them but I have no complaints and would definitely come again.
