I had never had Venezuelan food before, and I was pleasantly surprised!
I had the cachapas mariana, a wrap with black beans, cheese, avocado and plantain.
Not usually a fan of anything sweet and sour, so I was worried that the plantain would clash with the rest, but it was not as sweet as I expected and I found it to be a nice combination.
Overall, the food was nice and reasonably priced.
I have a couple of small complaints. Our side of avocado was clearly not ripe, and despite us telling the waiter we were in a hurry a couple of times it took a while to be able to pay the bill.
That said, I would still recommend this place to vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike who want to try something different!
Fantastic experience at Arepa & Co! The pork arepa is so good, and the fried chicken tapas as well. Genesis took good care of us, very friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back again and thanks for the cocktail on the house!
Amazing! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted so fresh. The tequeños were so fluffy and the guava juice was so refreshing.
My husband is from Venezuela and I have never found a restaurant with cachapas before. The vegetarian Del Campo one was superb.
The waitress was super friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself was super clean with a relaxing atmosphere. They also have outdoor seating. 100% recommend.
It is a very cosy place, with a good selection of the most traditional Venezuelan dishes and great service. Even your furry friend gets spoiled. (Dog friendly restaurant)
The place is a perfect hidden gem and my first ever experience with Venezuelan cuisine. The food was lovely, very tasty, Yuka fries were a very pleasant surprise, tres leches cake for dessert was awesome.
Very friendly service and a cosy atmosphere.
First time in a Venezuelan restaurant and it did not disappoint! This one is just tucked away in Bethnal Green not too far from the station. The food was fantastic and we got deceptively large portions. It can be a little tricky to eat but it's worth it. I didn't expect much from the cassava fries but they was fantastic too. I would recommend getting a sorbet at the end as they are delicious and it helps with a pallette cleanse at the end of a heavy meal. I would go here again!
Had their pollo frito and beef arepas, soso good! Comes to the table freshly cooked and hot, lots of flavour filling inside. Forgot to take pictures of them but food was very delicious.I also had the guava and chipotle chicken and they were ver good they were boneless which were a plus. We also ate their fried chocolate dessert and it was a great way to end my meal :). The staff were very friendly and welcoming and drinks as well sd food came quickly after ordering.
It’s the first time we tried Venezuelan food and loved it. The food was yummy, yuka chips and tequenos were my favourite, and guava juice too. The service was a bit slow but the staff was friendly.
It was a wonderful place, the atmosphere was so homely and cosy, especially if it's raining outside. The food was delicious, incredibly filling and well worth the price. 👍
We popped in here for brunch and loved it. Nestled under stone railway arches, we had some fantastic food. The service was friendly, and they were really happy to have our dog inside. They even have a dog menu. The staff were lovely, the place was clean and comfy, the atmosphere was great. I definitely recommend this one. They also seemed to be good with families with kids and groups.
First time trying Venezuelan food and I loved it. Friendly staff, delicious food and fantastic vibe. We visited on a Saturday at lunch time- great place to eat and relax after visiting the Flower Market. I will visit again.
It's practically only a sandwich shop that serves simple food with fresh ingredients.
Portion sizes are quite small relative to the prices.
I would say it's worth a visit if you want a quick hearty meal. However, it's not a place you'd want to revisit as the menu is very limited.
Lovely food, drinks and ambiance. Not 5 stars as the second time I was there their heater was not working at it was extremely cold inside. Also one of the drinks didn’t initially arrive and had to ask for it twice. Otherwise lovely place and probably much nicer in the summer.
No expectation coming to this place as review's a bit mixed. It's my first time trying Venezuelan food, which I was excited about. It was quite busy and lively, but I got a place right away. I got the beef arepa and it came out fast. Although it doesn't look that big, but I'm quite full with just one portion. They don't pull back on portion and I just LOVE the plantain in it.
Overall, a good experience!
