Arepas Cafe
4.5 (1,884)restaurant
A warm, family-owned Astoria spot serving authentic Venezuelan classics like loaded arepas and comforting chicken soup.
Description



This neighborhood fixture has been drawing locals—including Venezuelan patrons—for decades. Beyond the signature pockets of corn dough, the menu extends to traditional parrilladas and sweet corn cachapas, paired with house sangria. Portions are notably filling; sharing an order of empanadas alongside a single arepa is often plenty for two. Inside, the room carries a lively energy where dishes like the mini platter arrive hot and fresh, sustaining a following that has kept regulars returning for nearly twenty years.
