The Arepa Bar

Great addition to this area of Raleigh! I ordered three Arepas and I really can't decide which one was the best. The shredded beef was cooked to perfection so if I had to choose I would go with the Carne Desmechada. The combination of ingredients in the Mi Paisita was also delicious, especially if you like sweet plantains! These are probably the best arepas I've had in the triangle- very authentic! The spicy cilantro sauce is a perfect addition to all of them. Definitely looking forward to my next visit and trying the Tres Leches. I saw it and can't stop thinking about it!

Authentic Colombian food. The arepas are different then Guasaca because they are colombian not Peruvian. But the higher quality meats and homecooked taste is exactly what I wanted. The chicharon arepa was amazing and would definitely recommend. Also the chimichurri sauce was delicious.

Nothing special. They had a great steak encebollao, but the arepas are ok at best. I don’t know what the hype was about. I was hoping to taste some great arepas in the triangle... sadly, far from it. Will try again some other time and test my luck.

Very excited to have this authentic place near my house with no other arepa restaurants in the area. It was packed on a Sunday with people social distancing and waiting outside to order. The stand out was their mechada arepa. They had higher quality beef than Guasaca and a larger, grilled arepa that was more savory than sweet.
