It is the third time I have gone and the truth is it has been a real disappointment. I have gone once to one that was in Sol and it was very good, the first time I went to this one there was nothing to say, but this time, if I don't give lower ratings it is for the first time. Positive points: The girl's attention was very good, the food had a lot of quantity at a good price. The flavors were good. Negative: they say they have gluten free options, they only have two arepas with fillings that do not contain gluten but if you do not like some of the filling or have other intolerances they cannot solve it because the fillings are already prepared. I ordered a queen pepiada without mayonnaise and they told me that it was already prepared, they couldn't take it out, I settled for a pork one without salad. They don't have a gluten-free dessert option, I ordered and a coffee and here comes the worst, they only sell a small amount of coffees a day and after that there are no exceptions, they can't make it to you (although the exception you ask for is for health reasons since I couldn't have desserts). They ask you to tell them something that they should take into account in the reservation, I said that if they could bring a candle with the dessert because it was my mother's birthday, they did not bring it nor have they said anything about that. When making the reservation I told them that I could not consume gluten, lactose, garlic or onion. Not only did they not contact me to say that they could not change their dishes, but they had little or nothing to offer me, there was little to choose from, and I came without dessert or coffee. I no longer recommend the site and I plan not to return. Not to mention that initially we had a reservation for 4 people and increasing the number of diners did not allow me to edit, so I had to cancel it and make another one. And the table for 6 was crossed by a very uncomfortable pillar. The two times I went to this one, once I was downstairs near the kitchen, it is upstairs, there is too much noise from the music, it is not at ambient volume.

I have celiac disease and they have gluten-free arepas, although there are some that have cross contamination. However, Miguel treated us very kindly and answered all our questions about allergens.
