Crispy, gluten-free Venezuelan arepas served fast in a lively food hall; excellent for plantains and pabellon, but expect occasional service cold spots and add-on charges.
Quiero Arepas delivers solid neighborhood-level quality anchored by genuinely crispy, flavorful arepas and quick counter service, earning a grade B standing. However, inconsistent execution—cold items, occasional thin arepas, and service attitude swings—prevents higher placement, while recent reports of declining portions and temperature control suggest the restaurant isn't strengthening. Strong for casual Venezuelan comfort in a food hall setting, but lacks the reliability and distinction of top-tier neighborhood spots.
One caveat: Pricing feels high to some when portions run small or thin
