"Caracas Arepa Bar has two locations in New York City: an East Village spot, and this expanded version in Williamsburg with an attached rum bar. They also have a seasonal beach incarnation that Golip especially likes. “I love their location by the beach at The Rockaways. They have good Venezuelan snacks and live music on weekends,” she says. “Fun summer times.”" - Ugonna Ora Owoh

Where To Eat Outside In Williamsburg - New York - The Infatuation

"The East Village location of Caracas has the honor of being the first, while the Rockaway outpost has the pleasure of being a few steps from the beach. But this Venezualan spot in Williamsburg has something that the others don’t - a beautiful backyard and a cocktail bar with more than 40 types of rum. Make use of both while sampling their wide selection of arepas any day for lunch or dinner." - Matt Tervooren

"A couple street closures in Williamsburg re-routed me to Caracas Arepa Bar for brunch on Sunday, and I’ve forgotten all about where I was headed in the first place. An easy choice was the reina pepiada ($10), where cooling avocado chicken salad is wrapped around a warm, cornmeal arepa to create one of the best arepas on offer at Caracas — though honestly there isn’t a dud on the menu. There is cilantro, onions, and mayo all in there too, which make for a satisfying and lightweight meal that is stupid-good." - Eater Staff

Got the arepa with chicken and chorizo. Was very rich, lots of flavors and very tasty. Only thing that was missing for me was cheese which I usually like having in my arepas. I would definitely go again to try so other dishes on the menu. Service was great .

Tried venezuelan food for the first time, it's amazing 👏. Great for dates or catching up with friends. They also have a really cool patio set in the back.

Came for the famous Arepas but also tried the squash and beet soup, house salad and guacamole. Everything was spectacular and I loved the Yuca and banana chips. Tasty combos leave you very satisfied.

Well I've never tried Venezuelan food before so we went to this Venezuelan restaurant in Brooklyn for Arepas. We started off with croquetas and tequeños (deep fried queso blanco sticks wrapped in a wheat flour dough) before moving on to the Arepas. My wife had the De Pabellón (shredded beef, black beans, cotija cheese & deep fried plantains) whilst I had La del Gato (guayanés cheese, fried sweet plantains, avocado & Chicken). We shared a side salad. For dessert I had a coconut tres leche cake whilst she had the chocolate mousse. We loved everything we tried. I Highly recommend this if you're in the area.

Really, really, really good. Just as good as the one Manhattan. Service great and the atmosphere is much more open than Manhattan . I recommend the playa deluxe arepa. Definitely top on my list. The chorizo is great too. Definitely try the guacamole! Out if this world! You will not be disappointed. This will be a place you go to over and over again. I highly recommend!!

Great food, service and outside garden. Arepas are the main dish with classic sides and daily specials. Very clean and safe setup. A perfect spot to brunch and linger with friends and enjoy an iced hibiscus tea and lemonade

Simple drinks... great atmosphere to chit chat and have a cool calm mellow night with friends. Food is great but they serve small portion. Arcepas is the theme and most popular dish of the restaurant. Drinks variety is not big but good and different.

Great experience as usual, came with my wife and 3 year old. The place is cozy but long and has an outdoor space. As we came in they asked us if we wanted a high chair, we said yes. Food is great, atmosphere is good! Arepas are a no brainer! Ordered tostones with cheese and cilantro mayo, then those delicious yoyos that'll make you feel like is brunch again!
