"Opened inside Plaza Fiesta in 2019 by Claudia and Pedro Cardenas (who later opened a second location in Doraville), Arepa Grill serves Venezuelan comfort food with poppable mini cheese-filled tequeños and a sweet chicha drink made with rice, milk, and cinnamon; the arepas are the real draw, with the pelua—filled with shredded beef and melty gouda—recommended as a must for meat eaters, though vegan and vegetarian options are also solid." - Olivia Harrison
