How was this my first time finally getting to Viva Las Arepas?\nAfter seeing all the great press, driving by it a million times, and bookmarking it 8 years ago (ish), I finally made it in. My 2nd visit will be much quicker!\nThe vibe inside is friendly and clean, with a cool patio. It's not fancy, but it is definitely above Roberto's.\nEach arepa is about $5. Pair it with a side of beans or grilled veggies and a soda and you're about $10. Pretty affordable.\nMost important: the food is really good. Meats are excellent, the arepa itself is doughy, but with that corn texture. Yum.\nGood for lunch, dinner, kids, adults. Next door to the best gelato ever (except it's never open). They serve beer, too!
