TequeArepa

So sad that we don’t have any good Venezuelan restaurants in Minnesota. I’ve tried pretty much all of them, and they’ve all been disappointing. This one, as soon as you walk in, smells like grease and burnt oil. I mean, they had just opened and it already smelled like they had fried hundreds of empanadas. I walked out smelling greasy myself. The food was also very greasy. We had empanadas con carne molida, and they felt like a bad Colombian empanada. The outside wasn’t crunchy, and the meat was plain ground beef with no seasoning at all. The tequeños were great. The cachapa wasn’t that bad, but it lacked flavor and needed better, saltier cheese. The service was mediocre. The waitress knocked over my drink and didn’t even offer to replace it. She later came back to clean the table with

I came in for some spontaneous take out tonight because it was a perfect soup day and it didnt disappoint! While I waited for my food I also had a lovely conversation with Gabby! We chatted like old friends ☺️ Ill definitely be a regular customer!

My partner and I stopped in for a meal before going to a movie. We tried both the empanadas Areba and the fried plantain and it was really really tasty. The service was great. The restaurant was clean. We plan to go back.

For some time I tried to find the Venezuelan arepas “Pabellón” and “Reina Pepiada”, the same ones that are delicious and that I missed trying them a lot since some friends from the great Venezuela invited me to a hollow, there in my country (Quito-Ecuador). Yesterday was the day when together with my life partner, we decided to go in search of the arepas... Google was not wrong, it took us to the TequeArepa and without a doubt, their service, quality and warmth of people and the flavor of the products, without a doubt, left us satisfied.... We took a pair for our children... they were also fascinated. Highly recommended.

Whoever left the 1-star is just wrong. I've traveled most of the US and LATAM, this is some of the best Venezuelan food I've had. I bring everybody I know here and they are always blown away. Also, I miss you guys and hope you are doing well.
