⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Arepa is a great spot, especially if you’re looking for gluten-free options! The place has a nice, cozy vibe and it was super quick to get seated, which was a pleasant surprise. The food took a little while, but it was definitely worth the wait — everything was fresh and delicious. The service was okay-ish. The host or waiter didn’t check up on us at all during the meal, but he was friendly when we left. My partner thanked him and said everything was delicious, and he appreciated that. He also knew a bit about gluten-free needs and recommended a celiac-friendly arepa for my partner, which was super helpful. We’ll definitely be coming back!

We came here after a 5k for a group brunch. I have Celiac Disease, and always struggle to find decent options at restaurants. The menu had so many gluten free options! And even when I didn't realize an option existed for a certain dish, the server made sure I knew I could sub GF toast, or other options. The food was great, the cold brew coffee was delicious, and I can't wait to come back.

Quite, little corner probably busy during prime hours. We were there at 5 pm on a Thursday, Juneteenth. I imagine they have a business lunch crowd. Menu had a decent mix of apps, 2 salads, sandwiches, and dinners. Its light fare as you would expect in an Asian fusion restaurant. The Sake menu was sold out on the favorites. There were 2 other customers when we arrived. 1 server/bartender serving Sake cocktails. She was very accommodating. I ordered the turkey pesto sandwich without the bread to make it gluten-free. My son ordered the miso salmon. We we're told the food was cooked to order and the salmon would take 20 minutes. We waited almost twice that. When the food arrived. My turkey was heated sliced prepackaged meat over fresh greens and my son's salmon was a lovely, huge portion served with steamed rice. The signs about the room advertise karaoke on Thursday nights, etc. They also have a comedy night on Fridays. Perhaps we should give them another try...

They have everything I loved about the Riverside location and more! I stick with a gluten free diet and I've always been able to find a variety of options. Sometimes that means just protein + leafy greens and ditching the rolls. My 4 year old LOVED getting to assemble their own sandwich from the board. While we waited for the food we wandered around the market & florist which was filled with amazing goodies. We ended up getting a funky fall centerpiece of dried stems, it will last for seasons to come if I store it carefully. Ciera was at the register and was a great help while ordering and made the whole experience very pleasant & fun.
