Are-Pitas in Tampa offers an authentic taste of Venezuela that exceeds expectations. The cachapas are amazing, and the freshly made hot sauce is a must-try. Customers keep coming back for more and even plan to buy a quart of the hot sauce to enjoy at home. The Reina Pipiada and Llanera are highly recommended dishes that are perfectly delicious, with generous and expertly prepared fillings. The staff at Are-Pitas is passionate about their craft and dedicated to customer satisfaction, providing warm, welcoming, and attentive service that makes diners feel like part of the family. For those with high standards for food, this restaurant is the go-to choice for authentic Venezuelan cuisine. The catering service provided by Orselis for weddings is exceptional, with careful attention to detail, patience, and accommodating all requests. Recent reviews highlight that the chicken cachapa is sweet and savory, tasting like heaven while being filling. The tequenos are incredibly good, with warm, perfectly filled cheese inside the pastry, changing the reviewer’s view on mozzarella sticks forever. The restaurant offers a home-style combination of Hispanic and Middle Eastern cuisine, with a lengthy menu inviting guests to try everything. Inside, there is plenty of space and tables that easily allow wheelchair users to pull up, although the ramp and designated wheelchair spots are around the corner from the entrance. Overall, the warm, hearty food, friendly service, and inviting atmosphere make Are-Pitas a highly recommended dining experience.
