Description
Around the corner from Washington Square Park, this fast casual option builds on homemade Venezuelan recipes with crispy-yet-soft corn arepas. Alongside these, the kitchen serves empanadas, tequeños, and vegetarian arepas, though some diners note the meatless options run small for the price. The atmosphere is upbeat and the service warm, accommodating quick sit-down meals or orders to go.
