Arepera est largement saluée pour son menu entièrement sans gluten et ses portions généreuses, avec de nombreux avis qui vantent des arepas, empanadas et accompagnements à la banane plantain riches en saveurs et adaptés aux régimes végétariens, véganes et à ceux souffrant d'allergies. Les sauces, notamment les verdes et les rouges, sont souvent mises en avant pour leur goût et leur capacité à rehausser les plats, et l'ambiance est décrite comme chaleureuse, accueillante et conviviale. Plusieurs convives soulignent un service fiable et un personnel attentif qui s'adapte aux besoins sans gluten et sans lactose, bien que quelques visites mentionnent des attentes plus longues ou quelques soucis de service qui ont été résolus rapidement. Dans l'ensemble, la réputation est celle d'un choix fiable et abordable pour des saveurs vénézuéliennes audacieuses et des options sûres pour les personnes intolérantes au gluten ou au lactose.
Some of the best plantains I've had in a restaurant! I had been wanting to try arepas for the longest time & now I know I'll be craving it constantly. Their lime & sugar cane juice should also not be passed up.
I prefer Arepera over the other arepa restaurants on the plateau. They have a simple selection of plates & dishes that makes it easy to choose (there's basically one or two kinds of arepa per type of protein). Unlike some of the other places, Arepera always seems to be consistent in the quality of their dishes & sauces, so if you're a creature of habit that is also a plus. It's also a certified Gluten-free establishment, I believe, so they only serve GF dishes, & drinks (like GF beer), & there is no risk of cross contamination for people who are celiac. The only couple of downsides to this place are: 1. The restaurant itself is a bit stark. Despite having bright walls, nice art, & church pews as entryway benches, it's basically just one giant room with cafeteria style tables. There's very little privacy & the sound echoes quite a bit so you can hear other people's conversations quite clearly. It also feels really chilly in the winter, so if you're a fan of cozy this probably isn't the place for you. 2. They don't do delivery anymore (it's been a few years since they stopped, but this review is long overdue), so if you want to order in, you have to go to the restaurant & get takeout. I still think it's worth it if you're craving arepas. 😁
Little disappointed as we had high expectations about arepas & the dishes at this restaurant were not on line with its word by mouth reputation. Maybe it is not the business fault, because my past experience was with arepas hand made in person by a good chef. We all know food products sometimes need to be done with a standardized process instead of a too costly customised one. Dessert made justice of everything, they were really good. Service was ok. The environment was ok too with the exception of the restroom which for me has to be extremely cleaned.
Arepera has been a staple for me for a while now, so it's about time I finally wrote a review. Their avocado sauce is so good I'd give up my first born child to know the recipe. You can't go wrong with any of the arepas, but my favorite might be pabellon (with beans & plantains). This is a must try location!!! Also great for gluten free folks as arepas are made with corn.
They have ripe fried plantains, which I've been craving. The arepa I had was great, & the salsas were tasty! But the plantains were the highlight for me.
Great arepas, friendly service. A bit noisy & cafeteria-esque interior, but pleasant. The sauces take it up a notch. & at least for the the meal came very quickly & service was prompt & attentive. Would definitely go again.

Muy rico todo recomiendo el platillo de carne de res y la arepa de cerdo con queso derretido. La salsas son muy ricas la verde no pica y la roja pica rico. Excelente música latina vuelvo a regresar por otro platillo diferente y otra arepa ���
Our favourite gluten-free restaurant in Montreal! We love their menu, our kids love their arepa, & we love the atmosphere. The service is second to none, the prices are VERY reasonable, & there are a TON of great options. I love that I have a variety of GF beers to choose from (how many restaurants regularly have more than one gluten free beer available) & we learned on our latest visit that we could order a litre (like, a nice carafe) of delicious soursop juice! SO GOOD. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. 🤤
As always it was delicious! Courteous service! Employees there are always in a good mood smiling & laughing…it definitely has good vibes! In the summer you can take it to go & eat outside there’s a nice city installation with picnic tables, bike racks etc. If you have a gluten intolerance or allergy the Arepas are Gluten Free & they also have vegetarian options. My favorite go to is the Yuca entrée, the La LLanera arepa & passion fruit juice. Can’t get enough of that avocado sauce! Put it everywhere it’s addictive & delicious! Enjoy!
This was a great discovery The arepas sandwiches are so tasty. I had the beef with plantains .. delicious ! The staff is very friendly & welcoming . On top of everything, it's fairly priced. The only negative it's that it's a bit dark in there.

Ambiente amplo, aberto e ventilado. Bom atendimento. Pedimos de entrada o mix de empanadas (carne, frango e queijo). Para beber o mojito criolo. Para comer, provamos o arepa, pão da culinária venezuelana, feito artesanalmente, à base de milho (sem glúten), recheado com carne de porco e salada de abacate. Vem acompanhado de uma pequena porção de rúculas com molho de abacate. Estava tudo ótimo!
Delicious arepas! I have eaten many arepas in different countries but I can say these are great! I recommend the pork! Choose your favorite combination & have a Lulo juice!
