“ It's a little pricy but this place is DELICIOUS. I've had the sampler twice and it was sooo good both times. ”
“ Pabellon Arepa is the best! The stuff are friendly ! The environment is happy and comfortable. ”
“ Stopped by their food truck at a recent convention. Unfortunately, they were located right next to a popular food truck so the line was a bit obscured, but it was one of the quickest lines. It deserves more visibility! I got the beef bowl which came with beans, rice, plantains, and shredded beef. It took 15 minutes to get the food. This meal was filling. The beef had a rich tomato flavor. It was shredded, and it wasn't dry because of the sauce. The black beans. Well with the textures of the other items. The plantains were my favorite part because they were soft and sweet. The rice was a bit dry. Everything together made a perfect bite. It was $16. Pretty standard food truck price. I'd try their arepas next time. They had good options for vegetarians. ”
“ Stumbled on this place during a rough traffic patch. My wife loves arepas and she noticed their sign while on a detour. We enjoyed everything that we ordered and we were treated very well. I am new to Venezuelan cuisine and was very impressed. Will definitely go back. P.S. for all restaurants- please consider sanitizing items such as menus and salt/pepper shakers between customers, thanks! ”
“ Cumaco is bringing Venezuelan food full of vibrant flavor and love! I'd seen this place for a while, but always on the way to somewhere else. Finally I decided to make it my destination and I'm so glad I did! The moment I walked in the door there was a vibrance and energy to from the music to the decor. I started out with the tequeños, which are Venezuelan cheese sticks...the owner said any party back home that doesn't have these isn't a good part! lol! Well, I'm glad they know how to party cause these were soooo good! Crispy, not oily, and the garlic salsa added its own layer of flavor without overpowering. Then I had their famous arepa bowl! You're not gonna find this anywhere else! All the delicious makings of an arepa in this crispy and golden arepa bowl! The meat and black beans were so well seasoned! I can't stand when international food feels stripped of its unique flavors to please suburban palates...that is not so here! The owner, Orlando, and his family are blessing Fishers with bold and brilliant flavors! Make it your next food destination! ”
“ My son and I have been wanting to try Cumaco for months, and yesterday we found ourselves nearby, hungry and with time to stop. After this visit it's going to be on a regular rotation for us - yum! We split an order of Tequenos which were delicious- especially with the garlic sauce - that stuff was heavenly! Then, I just had some rice & beans while my son enjoyed the Pabellon Arepa. My rice and beans were amazing- I love how such a simple order can have so much flavor when well prepared. The Arepa was filling and tasty. All the ingredients blended nicely to make for a hearty meal. The service was friendly and efficient. Two thumbs up all the way around! ”
“ This is my second time back at Cumaco Arepa House and I don't know why it took me so long to get back here! We were welcomed with friendly service, and I decided to try the Arepa bowl this time as our waiter suggested this new menu item. The Arepa bowl was delicious with lots of flavors and they brought out some sauces to pair with our meals that were great. I will definitely be back to try something new! ”
“ I love that everything tastes so fresh. The Tenquenos were a little different that fried cheese sticks I am used to. They are wrapped in wheat flour and fried. Still pretty good. ”
