Food was good service was good ( they were happy to customize my coffee and give suggestions) the light was little bit over it was glaring over my laptop

It was ok, as a Venezuelan it fell way short of quality. Chicken on drier and saltier side. Arepas falling apart .

I have visited twice for drive through and overall very good. My father was born in Venezuela and I love the food. First I got the Arepa. Very good but the cheese was cheddar and was not melted. This time I got the capacha and empanadas. The cheese empanada was again cheddar and the cachapa used a more traditional cheese, but it was not fully melted. It took about 10 minutes for the food, but I didn't mind waiting. Also, both times I got a solid avocado cream sauce and a hot sauce. The hot sauce was Frank's I believe which I love on wings but not with these flavor profiles. The beef was perfect and the pork was very flavorful but could be a bit more tender. Overall it just feels like some ingredients are cheaper or easier to find than traditional ingredients. If they would use a proper melted cheese on everything and just add some jalapeno to the avocado sauce, it would be 5 stars. A few tweaks and it would be rock star, but I will still be back.

Como Arepas is one of the best restaurants in Columbia. CoMo is lucky to have them. If you are a foodie, visit here or become a regular. The food is fresh and the portion sizes are generous. The Patacon is AMAZING and so are the arepas.

Also, the owners and team are the kindest people. You won't be disappointed.

Vegetarian options: There is a bean and cheese arepa option. Not much, but available and tastes great. Otherwise, coffee is still always available.

Dietary restrictions: Arepas are made with corn flour. If you are gluten intolerant, this is a great food option for you.

Parking: Parking can be slightly limited, however it's easy to navigate.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space to sit with a family.

I’ve been to a lot of restaurants in Columbia but never have I received such phenomenal service and even a free item just cause it was my first time. Como arepas went above and beyond making such a great impression on new customers and to top it off the food was authentic, fresh and tasted amazing!

Friendly service and the 2 dipping sauces out of the 3 that came with them were very good! (3rd one was just hot sauce)
Cheese empanada was good, and taqueños were even better.
I didn't get to try the Arepas this time, but I will be back to try them!

I haven't been to the restaurant itself, but I just ordered their food off doordash and I must say it's so amazing. I have never had Venezuelan food before and I am incredibly impressed. I'm one of those people who is very picky, so when I say this is good, it's good.

I tried drive thru twice and service was very slow and rude. That was about a year ago. Nevertheless I decided to go inside to try Venezuelan food and coffee. To my surprises. ??? the place is really nice. It’s spacious and clean. I took my 2 years old and 9 years old. We had bagel pizza and cheese bread (sorry can’t remember the name)food was delicious. My cappuccino was good. Great!!We were the only one there around 1030 am. Would love to see more local supporting local business.
