El Arepazo's Grand Columbian Platter consists of chorizo, steak, pork, rice, pinto beans, fried plantains, arepita, avocado and fried egg.
From the restaurant's website:
"El Arepazo is the legendary Columbus restaurant known for healthy food, comfortable setting, friendly people and affordable prices. At our restaurant, we prepare the traditional Arepas, corn pancakes from Columbia's and Venezuela's gastronomy."
No alcohol available. Serving lunch Mon–Sat. Closed Sun.
"El Arepazo has recently undergone a smart renovation... Overall, these new alterations make El Arepazo seem much more like a legit restaurant than just a terrific counter joint. What hasn't changed is the venue's colorful, vibrant and flavorful Columbian and Venezuelan-based food. If you've never eaten at El Arepazo, then you need to get their only-available-here Patacon ASAP. It's a long, rectangular, smashed and fried sweet plantain base topped with lively salady stuff plus your protein of choice (salty pulled chicken works very well). It makes for a filling but still light meal."
