text: After reading the reviews here and watching this place featured on a television show I have been itching to try this place out I finally went here for lunch and was not disappointed I shared arepas with a friend carne asada chicken asada and the cold chicken salad There are menus in English and Spanish and in English the asadas are called wood fire I ordered these three because they were identified on the menu with a small icon which meant they were chef recommendednnThere was a short wait because this is not fast food where meals are prepared ahead of time and placed under a heat lamp They appear to be made to order and you can taste the difference The cost of the arepas were to and cheese and avocado are extra I liked the beef the best nnWhat struck me was the size of the arepas They were larger than I thought and one was enough to satisfy me for lunch I had arepas and was stuffed The breading used is gluten free and is not chewy I would describe it more similar to the crunchy outside of a buttermilk biscuit nnThe cons were a very small parking lot and it is not in a very safe area right across from the Olympic Garden But overall I recommend this place and I will be back to try the empenadas which I was told were home made
