The food was delicious & filling. I enjoyed trying plantains, something I haven't had before. There service was good but I was a little disappointed or cocktail came to our table when we were almost finished our meal. I would definitely eat here again!

Really enjoyed this spot as a gluten free visitor to MTL - plantain (amazing), casava sticks & pork belly sandwich, complimented with a shot of mezcal… can't ask for too much more than that

We love these arepas, with a huge variety between meat, fish & vegan (the black beans, plantain & avocado is my favorite!). Naturally gluten-free (made with corn), this is a perfect meal out if you cannot eat gluten. Enjoy!

Delicious gluten-free arepas! The flavors & textures are spot on. My favorite is the black bean, plantain, & avocado; teenager likes all the chicken ones. The green sauce is so good & the red one adds a nice fiery kick. Be sure to try the coconut flan!

Thankful to find a place that offers both gluten free & dairy free options, & that is delicious!

I had such a great evening at Arepera! Everything we had was absolutely delicious. We shared the plantains with feta as a starter, & I had an arepa (queso aguacate) for my meal - it was amazing. The flavors were incredible & everything tasted very fresh.

A huge bonus: the entire menu is gluten-free, which makes the experience so enjoyable when you have to eat gluten-free. Being able to order anything on the menu without worrying is really appreciated.

Warm atmosphere & very friendly service. A wonderful discovery in Montreal - I'll definitely be back!

Food is awesome, service is fast, & prices are amazing. I always get an arepa when I come. I love that everything is gluten-free (as a gluten intolerant person) & that theyvhave options for omnivores, veggies & vegans. Therevare 4 vegan arepas. The plantains & yuka fries are also vegan. They have 1 vegan empenada & 1 vegan dessert (flan). Everything tastes good. It's not high end refined food, it's street food done right. Super filling & good value.
They have a kid's menu...yay! My daughter (3 yo) ate the whole lot, she loved it.
Atmosphere is alright, place is big & can accommodate many groups.
Staff is friendly, but to the point.
I would 100% recommend!

Plantanos con queso were excellent. Great pairing of the salty cheese with the sweet plantains. The empanadas were also delicious. We chose the pork & it was very nicely flavored. The arepas were delicious, very good portion. Margaritas were also quite tasty. We would definitely visit again. So nice to have a totally gluten free restaurant.
