Arepa’s Place Wi - Brookfield

So good! We got the first arepa on the menu and a chicken and avocado arepa and they gave us an empanada to try. It was really fun to try Venezuelan food and so delicious! I loved the cilantro sauce omg I?ll be thinking about it for days. Lots of nice cozy seating around the fireplace. It?s in the Brookfield Square food court across from a local Indian counter serve that also looks excellent. We?ll be back!

Quality, tasty food found guilty in the Mall 's Food Court. I ?? empanadas so when i saw this place there was no way I wasnt going! Expectations were low since it was in a mall food court...but i was wrong! Empanadas are made fresh (they literally flatten the dough fresh, fill it, fry it up) the dough is moist thick sweeter than im used to with other empanadas. I thought it was an adjustment to aid in the process of making fresh empanandas. But, I was told this is typpical Venezualen style of the empanada dough. Food was not too sweet, salty, or over fattening. Fillings were chicken, beef, or pork...and again seemingly non-processed. Like they cooked and shredded the meat off the bone. Dinner was served wit blackbean, rice, perfectly ripened fried plaintains. I will definitly be back when in the area. My only wish is they come up with a non-typical fountain drink selection.

Find gluten free goodness at this amazing Venezuelan place in the Brookfield Square food court! Arepas are usually gluten-free and I verified with the owner that these are made with no wheat flour. The version served here is as authentic as they come. We tried four different flavors: chicken, pork, beef and black beans. All were stuffed to bursting with delicious, clearly fresh ingredients. The meats were all succulently juicy and mildly spiced. The black beans also had plantains (which the owner graciously prepared on the grill instead of in the fryer to keep them gluten free). Everything was delectable. Since the arepas are made fresh when you order, you might have to wait 5-10 minutes but it's well worth it. I suggest you sip a cup of their passion fruit juice while you wait, golden refreshment that is so much better than any of the sodas you'll find elsewhere.

Hard to put into words how great Arepa 's Place is. We hired them to cater our wedding reception with their empanadas and the feedback was phenomenal. Everyone loved the empanadas as well as the food truck vibe. The empanadas were fried to order meaning hot and fresh when people were hungry. The pricing was also super reasonable for the food truck compared to normal wedding food--and this was much better than the normal wedding food : We cannot thank them enough for being part of our special day!

Actually seen Arepas in TV and Googled this Place! Glad I did! I got the Beef Empanada the Chicken Salad Arepa? So GOOD!!!! For the Price it?s definitely Worth every Penny! ??
