The arepas at Guasaca are fantastic, there are so many options and flavor combos (all gluten free, + vegan options), and the prices are super reasonable. I tend to get three different arepas, and I can typically eat two... and then I save the third for later :) The sauces are all tasty and the spicy one is the best (IMO)! I'm GF and every time I'm in the triangle I get Guasaca before my ride back to the coast - my can't miss spot.

The tortillas are excellent and so are most of the fillings. Still, the last two times I ate there, one or the other was cold. One time, the filling was so cold that I sent it back. Last time the pocket was cold in spots. They must not be thawing them out.

Vegan arepas? Are you kidding? So unbelievably delicious! My wife has a Venezuelan grandmother and she was so excited and pleased to have something from her heritage. I just thought mine was amazing and I hope I can go back to try something else.

The food was slightly above fast food quality. We decided to sit outdoors and there's a public seating area that is shared between the establishments at Erwin Square. I'm not sure who's responsible for the cleanliness but it was apparent to me that there is a contingency of homeless people that use the outdoor area and I would suggest that the restaurants clean the tables daily. I gave restaurant three stars on average but I think that's being generous.
