Pica Pica Arepa Kitchen

It is rare to find empanadas and fried plantains that are completely gluten-free. You have no worries here because the whole restaurant is 100% gluten-free. Try the green garlic sauce on everything. It's delicious.

Dedicated GF kitchen, plus amazing food - and great value too. 😋😍

Great arepas and plates. Were very attentive about my heavy dairy sensitivity too.

Everything is gluten free. Didn’t get sick and the food is so damn good! I had the white corn arepa with pulled pork and some yuca garlic fries. You order at the counter and they give you a number so they can bring it out to your table. Seriously! Try this place out!

I eat here way too often. I’d give it ten stars if I could.

Delicious! Ordered delivery through Caviar twice to my hotel without any issues. The nachos were my favorite!

Lot of good food! Everything is gluten free... amazing.

Loved it! Crispy chicken, shredded beef, pork. Yum! All gluten free including beer, sangria, drinks, and dessert.

Very good authentic Latin American food

My son enjoyed this stop and the food was great! He ate the empanadas & an arepa both delicious. He is celiac so this was nice for us not to worry about him getting something from cross contamination because all is gluten free!!

Love this place! Everything is gluten free and they have some vegan/vegetarian options as well. They serve good size portions too!

Food is fresh and very satisfying. So many choices! Very happy with our lunch.

Delicious and 100% GF! A go-to when I’m ordering in. Edit: I’ve been eating here for months and have gotten sick a few times after. Starting to wonder if perhaps there’s cross contamination?

Totally GF kitchen and AMAZING food! Try everything once and find your favorite. This is definitely my weekly go to because it's dedicated GF and no risk of cross contamination.

I order from here all the time via Caviar, and it can never make me sick. Great food - love the plantains!

Amazing! New favorite place to eat in the city.

Delicious and the whole family enjoyed it! Truly appreciate being able to order food and know it’s safe, especially after a horrible experience with another local restaurants “gluten free” food.

Dedicated gluten free facility. This place is amazing!!! Will come here every time I’m in San Francisco. They deliver too.

I love this place and go there every time I’m in SF. They have vegetarian and vegan options as well as meat arepas.

Everything is gf! So yummy! I had an arepa and a fresh squeezed juice.

Heaven on Earth! Haha No, but seriously good. I haven't had crispy chicken since I was diagnosed celiac. My tastebuds and stomach are thanking me :)

Excellent and delicious vegan and gluten free options! Very impressed!

I tried the blackened beef arepa.. so juicy and flavorful! And the platanos were delicious as well. What a gem this place is!

Great flavors and many options

Amazing!!!! And super quick. Loved getting 3 different tapas so I could try as many as possible

As a sensitive celiac it's awesome to eat someplace that's 100% safe. The food is delicious, it's a great value and it's nice to have an entire menu of tasty options. It's the kind of place where you don't notice or miss the gluten because it's all inherently gluten free. Great for families and easy pick up for take out.

Amazing 100% gluten free food! My family wanted to try something new before going to the theater and stopped in here as I have celiac and their 100% gluten free restaurant looked great. I got the pulled pork arepa which was delicious, just the right mix of juicy meat, sauces, and avocado. It does have a little kick to it but the avocado helps. My family enjoyed their beef and chicken arepas as well. For dessert we opted for the yuca beignets which were an absolute delight - definitely a different texture than normal ones since they’re not made with flour, but they had just the right balance of sweetness and savory flavors and were piping hot. The sauce that comes with them is lovely. Would definitely recommend for those following a gluten free diet & everyone who enjoys yummy food!

Shared 3 arepas, all were so good. I enjoyed the sweet corn with pulled pork the best. Their sauces had really good flavor and texture.

Delicious food and no risk of cc! Really enjoyed the shredded beef arepa with sweet yellow, sweet plaintaines, and fruit fresca

All gluten free restaurant. Delicious simple food. Great for a quick bite or to grab and go.

Arepas and salads were delicious. Staff had good answers to questions about nuts etc. I am a sensitive celiac with other allergies and had no problems here. Plus I could bring non-celiac friends for a casual meal without having to talk about the whole thing.

I have not eaten here myself and was super excited by the menu. The main page of their website says naturally gluten free; however when you click on the allergen menu and check gluten, there is a disclaimer and terms you have to agree to where they say they cannot claim there food is free of gluten, etc. If that is their approach, while I appreciate their honesty, it should be regarded as a place with a gluten free menu and not a designated gluten free facility.

Ordered delivery twice while I was in town. Arepas and empanadas are excellent.

I celiac and cannot eat out unless it is a GF facility. This place is GREAT! Excellent presentation and options for meat eaters, vegan and vegetarians alike. I highly recommend!

A must! I got the vegan arepa and garlic yucca fries. It was a Kong day at a work conference so I got the food to go to have back at my hotel. I ended you knocking out and not eating the food fresh/hot. I ended up having it for breakfast cold and even under those conditions it was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

Sooo good! Everything is gluten free and it's all soo good. Vegan, vegetarian, and df options too!

Soooooo goooooood. Definitely a good pick for gluten free in SF

Incredibly tasty and entirely gluten free.

I really love arepas and everything on the menu is GF! Really fun place

100% GF facility, great if you want to try something different! Arepas are just delicious!

Almost everything was naturally GF anyway, but they also knew what they were doing. Super yummy as well.

Awesome lunch!! Entire facility gluten free

Tried the crispy chicken Arepa and it was delicious! Love finding gluten free restaurants that offer fantastic flavors and are careful with other allergies. Will definitely be partaking again during our visit.

100% Gf and absolutely stunning! I recommend either of the chicken arepas, as well as the aoli sauce on the side.

A-MAZ-ING! The food was great and the service was good. I recommend the cachapa with beef, pork, or chicken which was delicious. I was skeptical to try the food (I was afraid of cross contamination) but it turned out amazing! Highly recommend!

Never had a Venezuelan food, but what a nice surprise! Had pulled pork arepa, beef arepa, spicy chicken arepa, yucca fries, and crispy chicken plato. They were all so delicious, fresh, and each dish had unique and well thought through complex taste. Crispy chicken was fried so well. The little pickle cup that came with the trio sampler was so delicious too... thank you for providing such delicious safe food!!!

A 100% gluten free facility that didn’t have to change anything to have it this way? Their food is naturally gluten free and delicious! They were busy the entire time we were there. Seating is limited so plan to sit with others. We had the yuca fries, sweet plantains, and the yellow corn arepas with shredded beef. The yellow corn is sweeter than the white. Everything was delicious!

Delicious 100% gluten free! I recommend an arepa and yuca fries!

Great food and such a relief to have a totally GF restaurant! i have eaten here 3x and haven't gotten sick. The cachapas and the coconut drink are my favorites. Prices are on the high side for casual dining, so this is a "treat" and not a regular stop for me. The restaurant space is small and can be crowded at times, but overall it's a great place!

Awesome and unique food and totally GF. This place rocks!
