Maïs Arepas

The food was amazing. I enjoyed every bite and loved that I didn't have to search the menu for things that I could eat. While it was very a expensive meal for my family of four at $160, it was delicious.

Honestly the only word that comes to mind is ecstasy! This is by far the best restaurant in (dare I say) the state of Louisiana! The entire restaurant is gluten free, and although the menu can be a bit confusing for non Spanish speakers, every single thing my party tried (6 different dishes) was to die for! The atmosphere was traditional Columbia Creole fusion and the service was incredibly friendly. Stuck on the menu, I highly recommend the arepas or the aborrajdos. They even had dessert, the tres leche is amazing! Please please please, go to this restaurant!! You and your taste buds will not regret it!!

This was our 2nd visit to Mais Arepa and it was as delicious as we remembered from our last trip. My daughter loves the empanadas! We were also pleasantly surprised this trip that they had GF Tres Leches and it was so delicious. Their arepas are also amazing!!

If you go to New Orleans and don’t eat at Mais, you have missed the best part of NOLA. Everything on the menu is gluten free and everything is beyond delicious. A little off the beaten path and mostly home to locals and it’s so easy to see why. The atmosphere is fantastic and the food is beyond words incredible!

I had the arepa with the mozzarella and marinated chicken... delicious. As a celiac, very rarely am I able to order off the menu without saying “gluten free”, “gluten allergy”, and “cross contamination” a billion times, so going somewhere dedicated gluten free was a treat in its own... but wow. The arepa was delicious. Like... I was about to cry delicious. I would sell my soul for another arepa.

No one else in my family has celiac and they all love this place! Even my picky eaters loved the chicken arepas!

Completely gluten-free menu! Staff was amazing and food was delicious. It was so good, I'm going to try to make arepas when I get home! I am visiting from North Dakota and this place was recommended by the Gluten Free New Orleans Facebook group. #GFFFM #GFTCM

Delicious. Entirely gluten free. We went for lunch and it was very loud and crowded, but the food was great.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I told the waiter I have celiac disease and he immediately said everything is 100% gluten free. I had ceviche and a steak arepa which was very good. Highly recommend! Can't wait to be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I was in New Orleans for a week and ate here almost every day of the trip. Everything I had was very good, and the entire restaurant is GF, so no worries on that front.

Was not disappointed! My family didn't want to eat there, but in the end they agreed it was delicious.

Totally gluten free. Food is amazing and the tres leches is to die for. This is a NOLA must.

Celiac friendly?

Gluten free restaurant with excellent and interesting food!

So yummy and just about everything is gf. We shared three different arepas. Very good. Highly recommend

Celiac friendly?

Insanely good food! The best part is that the kitchen is completely gluten free so there is no need for a gluten free menu. If you have Celiac or gluten sensitivity, you MUST enjoy this place!

Celiac friendly?

The best Argentinian food we have ever eaten. Now, everything on the menu is celiac safe.

Pretty much everything here is safe. The waiter told us the only item, the Pollo Grilliao, was the only non-GF item because they add beer to the marinade. It was incredible, definitely make this place a priority!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Y’all this place is a MUST! Amazing food and basically the whole menu is GF! It felt so amazing to not be so limited with ordering options!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food, great service, and fun atmosphere!

Celiac friendly?

What an incredible meal! Everything from the appetizers to the desserts are gluten free. It’s such a relief not to have to worry about cross contamination. And talk about packed with flavor!!! We had the empanadas for an appetizer, arepas for our entree and tres leches cake for dessert. On top of all that, the margaritas were to die for! This was one of our favorite meals during our five days in NOLA. I highly recommend it!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The arepas are more filling than they appear - the Mechada is out of this world amazing! I believe that everything but the dessert (cake) is safe, but make sure to ask because menu items change.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The Arepas were so flavorful and delicious. A must get.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything on the menu is gluten-free. Excellent! Friendly employees. Allow extra time as everything is fresh & made from scratch. Near the WWII Museum.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing food and service! Everything on the menu is g/f (not sure about dessert). My daughter was diagnosed with Celiac 4 months ago and it was so nice to see her be able to order anything on the menu. This restaurant makes us wish we lived here and could go anytime. There was 6 people in our party and we all thought the food was incredible! Highly recommend. 🤩

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So good! She said everything on the menu is gluten free (I’m not sure if that extends to dessert or not though). There was a long wait on Saturday night so if you don’t want to grab a drink while you wait, I recommend making a reservation.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Hidden GEM! 100% gluten free menu! My husband and I ate here on our last day in NOLA, and it was the perfect way to end our trip. We had yuca frita (fried yuca and chorizo) for an appetizer and we each had an arepa entree. They are huge and very filling! YUM!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waitress confirmed the whole Menu was gluten free and I tried mouthfuls of everybody’s six delicious dishes and did not get glutened - great food- great service and great ethos with lovely fresh ingredients beautifully cooked and presented - go early no queues !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

SO good! We had the street corn and a couple different kind if arepas. So tasty and so nice not to have to worry, as the waitress told us the whole menu was GF. Highly recommend!

The food and service here is AMAZING! They take every precaution to be Celiac friendly, most of the dishes are naturally gluten free. They also have really delicious drinks. Highly recommend!

I am a big fan of South American food and arepas are one of my favorites. Even if you don't know what an arepa is, just know the food here is AMAZING. We wanted to eat here twice during our visit but ran out of time.

Amazing food! All GF. Street Corn is a must!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing food and drinks all GF. Excellent find!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great meal & the staff really is very knowledgeable. She asked about all allergies and explained that basically the whole menu is gluten free. If you have dairy allergies, stay away from arepas, but they have plenty of options for all. Definitely check it out! Best meal I think I have ever had!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was spectacular!!! Entire menu is GF. They use Bob's Red Mill flour for the pastel de tres leches. We arrived 10 minutes before opening and there was already a line outside

Celiac friendly?

Cute little corner restaurant. Stopped on the way for a cemetery tour. The food was fabulous, extra cool and great bar.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything is gluten free! I enjoyed arepas and tres leche cake yesterday and had no ill effects!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very knowledgeable! Food was excellent. If u can’t tolerate dairy like me, the arepas do have some dairy in them. However they have dairy free options like the empanadas, ceviche, yuca with chorizo, and salad. The empanadas were my favorite.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The whole menu is corn-based, which is really helpful!

Celiac friendly?

This place is amazing! My favorite meal while visiting NO. The arepas are to die for. Great margaritas, great service! Everything on the menu is GF.

Celiac friendly?

This was our 2nd visit. The food is amazing and the menu is 100% gluten free — including the desserts! I had the grilled chicken arepa with a side of chimichuri sauce and a little bit of cheese. My dining companion ate the Cerda, which is a pulled pork dish with fried plantains. The fried yucca is also a great appetizer. When I heard both desserts where gluten free, I had to try both. The tres leches dessert is the most delicious dessert I have ever had and the flan with passion fruit sauce is amazing. I recommend reservations, as the restaurant is small and fills up quickly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Another great find in NOLA. The menu is interesting and almost entirely gluten free (except for one dessert). The food is reasonably priced and delicious. Reservations are recommended on the weekends because it is a small restaurant that is very busy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

fantastic food! entire menu was GF when I was here, including the tres leche cake. server said unless there's a special of some sort that isn't gf, they are 100% GF. fresh margarita, loved the arepa trio sampler. Will be back here!

let's just start with the fact that everything is gluten free, with the exception of the tres leches. Delicious, different from my norm, and a great atmosphere.
