Great in person, not so great by delivery.
Kind people, delicious food, and fair prices. I have never been disappointed when I go eat in at the restaurant and bring new people to try it all the time.
However when I ordered the BOGO chicken fajita arepa combo for myself and a friend on uber eats, all 4 arepas had 1 small piece of shredded chicken and 2 small grilled onions and peppers.. practically empty. I felt totally ripped off.
I also bit into something that hurt my teeth in their slaw (also delivery). If there weren’t snacks in the house that night we would have gone to bed hungry. :(
I’ll come back in person any day, but probably won’t be ordering delivery from here again. They really are nice people and the food is very good, but the food is made completely different when you’re standing there watching verses when you have to trust them to send it to you right. I hope things change! -
Filling and affordable! I got the shredded beef arepa, loved every bite & pick up was smooth and quick. Spent a little over $6 for two on Uber!

My partner and I were in the area and decided to stop in for a quick bite because this place looked open and inviting. And we were totally right! It was a super-cute, minimalist restaurant.
They specialize in arepas – and man, they were good! It was a fun and new spot to eat in the Durham area. The only “issue” I had was that in my Arepa, I got beans, and they made the sandwich fall apart – which is not good eats…
But, other than that, we had a good experience, and I would go back! -
I love the Avocado Chicken here, but every time I order arepas to go it’s an unpleasant surprise. Unfortunately this time my arepa came extremely burnt, it was crunchy like a chip and thin as paper. It’s disappointing because the flavor is usually great, but the quality of the arepas when ordering to-go has been very inconsistent.

I use to go here all the time and loved it. I’m not sure if the store is under new management, but the last few times we’ve been here haven’t been good at all. The vegetables looked old, the tables were dirty, the sweet tea had a weird taste to it, and the area where you put the trays up had food all over it. Also, the woman making the food walked off in the middle of us ordering for who knows what reason. I’ll stick with the one in Morrisville, it’s cleaner and tastes so much better.
