Les avis convergent sur Arepera comme une adresse authentique et généreuse pour découvrir la cuisine vénézuélienne, particulièrement pour ceux qui cherchent des plats sans gluten et des options végétariennes ou véganes, avec des arepas bien garnies et des empanadas croustillantes et des sauces notables comme la sauce verte et la guasacaca qui reviennent souvent en coup de cœur. Les portions sont souvent généreuses et les prix raisonnables, certains allant jusqu’a recommander l’endroit comme l’un des meilleurs pour les arepas à Montréal; l’ambiance varie entre un espace spacieux et convivial et une cuisine ouverte qui crée une atmosphère détendue. Le personnel est fréquemment décrit comme sympathique, serviable et multilingue, mais des critiques récurrentes évoquent des temps d’attente parfois longs et des difficultés ponctuelles à scinder les additions ou à assurer la constance entre les plats, avec quelques expériences de plats pas à la hauteur ou de problèmes de fraîcheur. Dans l’ensemble, Arepera est perçue comme une option sûre et appréciée pour manger sans gluten, avec une forte identité et un éventail large de choix qui plait autant aux gourmets qu’aux clients souffrant d’allergies ou d’intolerances.
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!
The best lunch we've had on the entire trip to Montreal. The chicharron arepa is the apex of pork sandwiches. We had a gluten sensitive diner, & she had no issues at all. There were also some great drink options (including gluten free beer too). Wait staff were wonderful. Highly recommend.
Friday night & we hit it right. There was just a short waits for a table. Our server was handling 9-10 tables but we never felt like we had to wait. He was impressive keeping everyone served & water bottles replaced.
Any place that is 100% gluten free is always a plus in our book. It is nice to order & know there are no cross contamination issues. For my daughter, she enjoyed sampling our food.
The food was wonderful. It was flavorful. Fillings in sandwiches were a lot. The platter was full. The variety was incredible. There was beef, pork, chicken, seafood. There were different cheeses & accent fillings.
The atmosphere is eclectic. Some of the booths were old church pews. Chairs varied a bit. You could see into kitchen so they know they are clean & safe.,
Lovely place, delicious food, cheap prices, many options, especially for people with dietary restrictions. They seem to have built their menu around people who cannot consume gluten, but it doesn't taste like it at all. I tried this place out to bring my celiac brother. Very satisfied & looking forward to having him feel included when going out to eat. Good for vegans, vegetarians & picky eaters ! There are also many meat options :)
Wonderful find in Montreal. Being gluten free it's always great to find a restaurant where I can eat everything on the menu. If you're not gluten free don't let this be a deterrent to going, you would never know anything was gluten free.
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.

Discovered this place recently & my whole family loves it!
The food is very good. Even my picky child found something she is always looking forward to, she always enjoys the pork & beef empanadas. My son loves the fish empanadas. I had a few different chicken sandwiches, & though they are all very good, the avocado chicken is my favourite.
Coconut flan is heavenly!
The atmosphere is great & the staff are very friendly.
I am a symptomatic celiac & haven't had any reaction. I even was brave this time & tried a gluten free beer, & again, no reaction.
My younger daughter has special needs, & though there is no accessible entrance, we come back anyway, because of how patient & friendly the staff members are, & how tasty the food is.
It was very nice for my wife to find a totally gluten free restaurant. Had to park a few blocks away but it was will worth it for the friendly service & tasty arepas. Several vegan options as well.
We ate here two days in a row. The food is really good & suitable for people with celiac disease (100% gluten-free). They even have gluten-free beer. Reasonable prices & hardly any waiting time.
The staff was amazing & the food fantastic! Portions were generous. The corn bread for the Arepas & the enpanadas was sooooo good, it's uncanny! They even serve really good gluten-free beer.
Great service & a nice place to grab dinner. Everything is gluten free. Food was a bit on the bland side & the salad on the side was quite a sad portion. The banana pudding was delicious & would highly recommend as a nice warm dessert!
Ordered Arepera 3x for takeout during my 4 day stay in Montreal. Absolutely amazing to find a fully gluten free restaurant that is delicious & priced reasonably. Would be a frequent customer if I lived closer, highly recommend to anyone!!!
