Reviews describe Bistro l'Arepa as a lively, welcoming spot with a strong Latin vibe offering fresh Venezuelan and Colombian dishes like arepas, chicharrón, sancocho, pabellón and patacón, with many praising the quality of ingredients and flavorful execution. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as warm and charming, with good music and attentive service that makes guests feel at home. While portions are often generous and meals described as delicious, several notes mention that prices can be high for the size and some guests have found recent orders less consistent than before, particularly for signature dishes. The overall sentiment calls it a hidden gem or must visit for Latin cuisine lovers, thanks to its authentic flavors and vibrant ambiance, and there is a common sense of wanting to return to try more items.
I went with my family to dinner & it was our first time after the expansion & renovation of the place. We went before & what we did like was the taste of food. Our experience this time was not the best. The food was not great or even good as it was. The cachapa was tasty, but the cheese was missing salt, so feta cheese was added to compensate for that. The Reina Pepiada arepa lacked salt & seasoning in the chicken. I went with my kids & they don't have a kids menu. The prices are very high compared to other similar places. The place must improve & adjust prices for me to return back.
The food here was excellent! Flavorful, juicy, great portion. The service was also very good form the moment we walked in to the very second we left. Its a must try. I do plan on going back.

La verdad siempre voy porque me gusta pero hoy salí desilusionada últimamente ha desmejorado el servicio. Compré bandeja paisa para llevar y me sirvieron la muestra de frijoles ya ni siquiera el tarrito pequeno lo llenan venía por menos de la mitad un momento por favor, el aguacate completamente negro en las dos bandejas que compré. Y la anterior vez hace 20 días atrás los frijoles traían picante al igual que el arroz no entiendo porque DANIEL es que sirvieron un poquitico de todo. Les comparto fotos
Hice un pedido a domicilio y la verdad muy decepcionante, nada que ver las fotos q se ven con lo q envían. Pedí unas empanadas que parecían recalentadas en aceite , literal el aceite escurría , imposibles de comer , las arepas tenían el aguacate negro , la Arepa de chicharrón , tenía el chicharrón chicludo , le faltaba mucha cocción , me toco sacarlos de la arepa y cocinarlos . Lo único q me gustó fueron los tequenos. No volvería y no lo recomendaría . La salsa de ajo era escasa , 2 tarritos para 4 arepas
Visitamos este restaurante el fin pasado, manejamos más de 30min para ir a conocerlo, quedamos fascinados, la mesera fue increíble, la comida wow y el restaurante es muy bonito, con el clima perfecto y la música perfecta, felicidades y continúen así, pronto estaremos de vuelta
