Best spot in the East Village!
Caracas is one of my favorite places. yes, the line is long and delivery takes forever, but the food is amazing. The La Mulata (warning - very spicy) is delicious, as is the popular De Pabellon. Also, try the little arepa ball appetizer and the mixed salad (heart of palm and avocado = yum!). You will not regret a dinner here! And the 'special sauce' is addicting - ask for extra if ordering delivery.

Seriously?
I've been ordering from these guys for years. The food was pretty good. Apparently they have no understanding of loyalty because they now have an "outside delivery company" that WILL NOT deliver to where they used to which i would like to point out is 5 FEET away. Good job losing customers!!

Delicious food
Arepas were delicious, served fast & piping hot. With a packed place, service was very courteous and attentive. The place is tiny and quite crouded, but that is part of the charm.

Overpriced & Poor Service
This place has identity issues - the atmosphere is hip, but the food comes in plastic baskets with wax paper similar to plating at the corner Papaya dog. I was excited to eat here given the unique menu and ordered two arepas. After about 25 minutes only one came out and it resembled a mini pita-pocket sandwich. The corn arepa tasted more like regular bread than a special corn cake, and $7 is wayy to much to pay for a mini pita-pocket sandwich. After another 15 minutes went by without my 2nd arepa (nor any of the balance of my party's either) I aske the waitress how long it would be and she rudely responded asking if I would like to cancel my order. 10 minutes later it finally arrived but the worst part was after we each paid $30 I had to get a slice around the corner since I was still hungry! Won't be returning.

Taste like Mexican food
I am from Caracas, Venezuela and this is not authentic Venezuelan arepas at all. the meat is spicy and it resembles mexcian food more than it does the traditional Venezuelan Arepa!

Freakin' Delicious
This place gives me mouth euphoria. I had the Cachapa with beef and cheese, like 2 weeks ago...and I'm still thinking about it. Washed it down with the house michelada. Definitely a great place for yummy and cheap eats. Only downfall is the long wait :(

poor food, poor service
I was really looking forward to going to this restaurant as I have heard such great things, but I was thoroughly disappointed. The food was extremely oily (there was oil dripping from the arepas) and lacking in flavor. Additionally, the service was quite poor, and it took at least 3-4 requests for our water to be filled. I would not recommend it or go back.
