El Rey de las Arepas is a small, cozy restaurant where a labor of love is evident in every bite of their fantastic food. The cuisine is similar to traditional Puerto Rican dishes, and the staff, mostly Spanish-speaking, graciously accommodates English speakers. Many customers have enjoyed the experience, labeling it as a unique spot with excellent service, flavors, and location, making it a must-visit for those seeking a special dining experience.
Guests have been impressed with the quick service and the variety of options on the menu. Favorites include the loaded fries, plantains as an appetizer, and refreshing fresh guanabana juice. The atmosphere is unassuming, with nice music playing while waiting for food. While some find it a tad pricey, the quality, including delicious arepas and pastelitos, makes it worth it. A large order of 60 arepas for a work party was a hit, with everyone loving the food, ensuring El Rey de las Arepas remains a popular choice in Detroit.
