What a lovely place to eat Venezuelan arepas!! We came to Auckland to visit and we found this place and I was supper happy. The flavours of the arepas that we have tried were delicious. Super recomended place.

Every bite was worth taking a breath between. To savour the moment. The cassava fries was the correct portion. Cooked all the way through, light and fluffy and the crunchy outer was a good mix of texture.
The mulata had all the flavours in every bite. A proper lunch meal, fast, flavourful and messy which is how I like food. The fried banana for me was the stand out complimenting the salsa and salad and the bits of pork belly. The bread it came with had all the flavours of the grill and was soft on the inside with the crispy crust. I will note if you don’t like cheddar cheese too much ask for maybe a feta or less cheese I like both so it didn’t stop me from enjoying it at all. I know some people are specific with cheese.
Partnered with the karma ginger ale it all went done perfect.
A great combination of flavour and texture and now I wanna try all the arepas on the menu.

We had a great dinner at this restaurant at the food hall. We appreciated that we were able to eat our food outside for the fresh air.
My husband got an arepa which was very full and flavorful. I got a patacon with pork that was delicious and had super crispy plantains and yummy beans. I'd totally go back to try more options from the same menu.

Grabbed a quick lunch arepa the other day and still thinking about it! Food quality is impeccable. While I was there, a couple nearby ordered the sharing platter - looked delicious and keen to try that next time. Overall impressed with the food, the arepas are a bit pricy for the quantity but it's a unique dish so fair enough. Chimichurri on point!
Atmosphere was lovely and staff seemed onto it

It was my first time trying Latin American cuisine. The chorizos, prawns, and the veggies in it tasted great with the sauce. The lady at the counter was kind enough to give us some extra glaucamole sauce to take home.
