We went to have a late lunch at Arepas in MSU. We had to walk for over 20 min. We were really hungry but thought the walking was worth thinking of the good experience we had before in the location at the Cotton district. Well, it was terrible. The place looks more like a coffee place. Arepas are not in the menu! However, were displayed along something near the cashier. After waiting for somebody willing to take our order, we were told they offer arepas but not right now and in a while. We asked why if we saw somebody was pulling out arepas likely from a fridge and heating them up in a microwave. Now at this point two employees said the person in charge of preparing arepas was busy taking care of a party of people and it would take a while before we can get service. We replied that there were not awfully a lot of people and didn't understand why it would be a problem to serve us. They just shrunk their shoulders and gave lame excuses. We left even more hungry and frustrated because they we not even making fresh arepas, they were just reheating them up frozen. They really should reconsider the name of location if they cannot prepare fresh arepas or even heat them up. Altogether is the worst service we experienced so far in town. Avoid this location at all cost, it will be a waste of time and likely an awful experience.

When we sat down our server never greeted us. We were sat for about 5 minutes with no sighting of our server. We moved to a smaller table and after doing that we had another server(not ours) come take our orders. That server told us ours was busy at the moment and that she would be with us soon. We ordered mojitos and they were given to us in plastic cups while everyone else in the restaurant had glasses. It was also hard to be waited on and i don’t know if it’s because we weren’t dressed the nicest but it definitely felt like it. Everyone else seemed to have great service. After being there for 30 minutes we still had not been greeted by our server. Usually the service here is great but today was disappointing. The server that took our orders was great especially considering she was training someone new.
