Arepas Cafe
Astoria
Born as a food truck with roots in Maracaibo, this family-run spot now packs 25+ arepa varieties into every meal: think Reina Pepiada, Pabellón with sweet plantains, and corn crepes called cachapas. Weekend bottomless brunches bring passionfruit sangria and the kind of neighborhood warmth that keeps regulars coming back for nearly 20 years.
