Dedicated gluten-free which is awesome - I didn’t have to worry about what I ordered and had no negative reaction to what I ate. Menu is decently varied and my meal was good but unfortunately nothing I’ve had there has lived up to my old favorite arepa place.

Amazing dedicated gf spot!!! I moved closer to this side of Raleigh and eat here way too much haha!! The arepas are to die for and the fresh pressed juice is heavenly!! You definitely need to stop by at least once if you’re in the area!

This is our 3rd time here and everything we've tried is amazing! Everything is glutenfree! Definitely one of our favorite stops when we are in the area. My brother and his wife joined us this time and they loved it as well. They also have vegan and vegetarian options.

This place is sooo delicious and flavorful. I haven’t even finished eating my meal and I needed to make a review it was so good. Got La Pelua,La Sureña and Reina Pepiada. They were all amazing. Having 2 arepas is definitely enough for a meal even if you are very hungry. I’m so grateful to have found this place. I feel super safe eating here as it is a dedicated gluten free place and the staff was very knowledgeable.

I’ve been here several times. Family owned small business. The arepas are yummy and filling; one is plenty for me. Easy location right off Glenwood.

Have eaten several times and never gotten sick. Food is ok. I switched to this spot for arepas after another local spot lied to the GF community many times over the years about serving GF arepas.

The staff was knowledgeable (and had easy access to info about) my other allergies. They recommend getting 2 arepas to make a meal, and that's a good idea. I got the salmon, which was pretty good, and the vegan domino, which was great! I also got a side of plantains (no cheese), which was delicious to add to my arepas. It's always a relief to find a 100% GF place, and even better when the food is so great.

Love these, and would definitely come back for more!

I did not react to eating here.

Oh my goodness, this was delicious and one of the best meals I have had at a restaurant since my celiac diagnosis! Everything was so good…the chicken salad arepas was the best chicken salad I have ever had!! The plantains divine! Actually, everything we tried was outstanding.

I only wish I had one in my town! But anytime we come to Raleigh, this will absolutely be on our list of stops!

Delicious! The arepas and cachapra were so good! I had the bbq and my friend got the shrimp, then we just got the cachapra. The cachapra was sweet and really good. The sauces are also great and the drinks. Cute place, great for lunch or dinner.

Dedicated GF facility, naturally GF dishes, and it’s delicious?! I love Arepa Culture and often find myself planning my errands around getting lunch here. The La Tica and El Salmon have my heart… and I could drink the cilantro sauce too. There are options for every palate and dietary preference. Lovely!!

We had a great lunch here. I have celiac and my child has multiple food allergies. The ordering experience felt very thorough/attentive and explained all of our options carefully. They offered to change gloves when they learned of the additional allergies at play. Food was delicious and came out fast. Very happy with our experience.

I loved this place! I am extremely picky about where I will eat out. I’ve only tried 2 restaurants total since my celiac diagnosis over a year ago, and this was one of them. I am very sensitive and did not get sick, and the arepas were great! Totally going back next time I’m in Raleigh!

Dedicated gluten free.

Filing and delicious.

Owner works the register.

Arepas were delicious. Buy two for a filling meal.

Amazing juices, sides, and other extras.

Great space to enjoy food in. Lots of outdoor seating.

Best meal I've had since my Celiac diagnosis.
