Their service is awesome!!! Me and my family go there at least 1-2 times a month because their food is incredible but also they are hustlers!!! Always making sure their costumers are well attended and feel welcomed. Great experience everytime.

The food was delicious! The service was excellent and it has a great vibe. The portion sizes are huge. Two people can share on plate. Overall the best place to get an arepa!

Great service and good food. The soup was very tasty. A pleasant atmosphere for breakfast or lunch after work or when you don't want to just cook. The girls Carmen and Khris are very attentive to their customers.

Since our move to the Midwest, we miss Latin American food, like the kind offered at Arepas El Cacao. The type of restaurant that is walk-in, casual, almost cafeteria style where you carry your own tray, but with excellent homemade flavors, and of course - lots of hot sauces and toppings to pick from! The arepa is one simple price, but you can select up to five fillings. With such delicious options, it was hard to choose. We went with pernil (pork) plantains, white cheese, beans, and avocado. Absolutely delicious! We also tried the guava-cheese filled pastries and an empanada. Believe me, you will miss this type of food if you move away from Florida. And if you're in Florida visiting, you should stop in and try something local. You won't regret it. Sabrosiiiiisiiimo!

My little sister took me here for dinner and I was blown away by the flavor! I ordered the Cacao 3 with a passion fruit smoothie. It was a 10/10. The Cacao 3 consisted of black beans, avocados, shredded beef, plantains and mozzarella cheese. The house made hot sauce brought just enough heat to the meal. I’m definitely going back. The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere was clean and small with outdoor sitting available. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I love getting food here, I've been coming here for years. However, I never sit inside because no one seems to care that guests have no problem talking on speakerphone and ruining it for the people who want to eat inside. I think the staff should not let people talk on speakerphone, it disturbs every one else.

A dios mio. I love this place. The food is beyond incredible and the service is sensational. A true hidden gem in Orlando. Especially for those late night cravings. You have to get the Arepa con chicharrón it’s the only way
