Rubens Arepas in Berlin

Incredibly delicious food! Clean, fresh and the taste cannot be beaten. The corn flour used is gluten-free, the owner knew immediately when asked and was able to provide information about all dishes. We'll be back!

It's a shame not what is expected from eating a good arepa, and remember my country, the meat in the filling was not good, I almost couldn't swallow it, it took much more time to cook and the sauce, for God's sake, horrible, that's not it. It has nothing to do with my Venezuela, here in Berlin there are better places with a Venezuelan flavor

Absolutely delicious arepa's made with corn flour, which are naturally gluten free

The arepas were delicious What I liked the most was the paper That's lovely

The arepas are very delicious. We recommend them!! 10/10

Friendly service and best arepas in town. A must visit.

Very tasty arepas. Portion is good for an adult and the homemade lemonade is great!

I love the food. Delicious and filling. What I don't love is that the opening times are sometimes random and it's not open when it is supposed to be. I get hangry after the gym.

We ordered a portion for two people, the portion was too small and barely for one person, the price is very high for this amount of food, matter of taste is subjective but personally i don’t find it that good.

Excellent arepas! The tequeños and the yucca are also delicious.

Incredible food, incredible flavors, incredible service and very good prices. Recommended 100/100!!

This is the best street food I’ve ever eaten. So special, so many flavors. Ate the meat option and gf had the vegetarian one. Both were perfect. Highly recommend

The color of the restaurant is probably a matter of taste. Everything else was perfect.

yummy arepas I have to edit my initial review. It's much less chicken in Reinita than it used to be! Now it's an arepa full of goat cheese instead! Not nice :(

Service was great, but the food was “meh”. I was really craving an arepa, and this did not satisfy that craving.

Small, cozy shop with a few places to sit and loud South American music. I haven't had Venezuelan food that often and there are really great things to try here. The vegan arepa with beans and plantains tasted good and I particularly liked the yacon root fries. Super delicious and I definitely want to come back again. But the prices are tough. Understandable, after all, many of the ingredients are very exotic. But don't be misled by the small-looking portions, because they're still really filling.

The Tequeños are not authentic (too doughy) but the arepas are delicious! I’m Venezuelan, so I’m missing my food here in Berlin. Luckily I found this spot and can get my fix of arepas. I recommend the Reina Pepiada with an extra order of Plátanos. Trust me! Solid meal.

I love the best Venezuelan traditions arepas pabellón tequeños cachapas fried yucca I congratulated the employees and owners for their attention

Venetian food, a bit pricey but you can go for a change

As a gluten-intolerant person, I'm always hesitant to try new restaurants, but this place exceeded my expectations. Almost all of their dishes are naturally gluten-free, and the one dish that does contain gluten is prepared with extreme care to prevent cross-contamination. The arepas were absolutely incredible! The perfect balance of flavors and textures, I can't wait to come back and try more of their delicious offerings.

Best place! Best food! So delicious! 5 stars are not enough to rate this place and its excellent Arepas! On top all Arepas are glutenfree.

Amazing arepas, really recommend !! but beware the spice (it was a bit too spicy for us)

Very good and a completely new taste :)

One of my favorite places in Berlin. Big, juicy Arepas, filled to the brim with delicious stuff. Crazy.

Finally AUTHENTIC Arepas in Germany! They are truly delicious, and sold at acceptable prices. Plus the cooks are friendly and the service fast in a small cosy place. Viva Venezuela y viva Latinoamerica!

Absolutely amazing place! The food was superb, rich in flavors and you get decent amount of it! I was really blown away by how good it was as I’ve never had Venezuelan food before. The people behind the counter were nice and welcoming although I could see how busy the place was.

Was the first time eating Venezuelan food and was absolutely delicious,recommend 100%!

Very delicious arepas!!! One type tastier than the other. 😋

The food is surreally wonderful, the flavor is incredible! We were very well looked after!!

Great arepas and interesting sides, with friendly service (thanks for editing my order!) and great GF options. Recommended.

Very good flavor and the portions are more than good. The attention, the truth is that it is very friendly 😊 we had a good time and it reminded me of the taste of home.

Very good arepas. Is recommended as a small dinner. I always enjoy coming here.

We've never eaten Venezuelan before, but the Rubens Arepas made us an instant fan of South American cuisine. A taste explosion was simply packed into a corn bag. The Yuca Fries with the house salsa is also highly recommended.

Great overall composition in terms of taste. Unfortunately my ragout wasn't hot. It's also more of a pulled beef than a ragout. But it doesn't matter because it tastes good.

Staff were very helpful and the food will rival any other food you can eat in Berlin!

The arepas are AMAZING! we ordered Queen pepiada and pavilion. Plus guys, everything Delicious! Highly recommended. A taste of home.

Most delicious food! Left very happy every single time! Clearly recommend!!!

Excellent place, very delicious food and very friendly staff. I recommend it without any doubt. Made me feel at home

Service of 10 and very good arepas

This place is undoubtedly one of those that yes, or yes, you have to visit, if I can use one word to define them it will really be SPECTACULAR, too delicious. I LOVED the pavilion with the sweet touch of ripe banana 🍌!! ❤️‍🔥✨DON'T MISS OUT TO TRY THEM. 🥰

I came to Berlin for a few days from Spain and the truth is that it was excellent, no negative comments, the guy who served me was very attentive and grateful, abundant food and very delicious flavors that are very much ours 🇻🇪❤️ I will return. ✨

I love it there! A friend took me and I haven't stopped going. I recommend the tequeños and the vegetarian arepa.

The best arepas in Berlin! The unmatched flavor, 100% recommended.

Arepas are glutenfree and very delicious! Perfect for a small take away snack!

I was there with a group on Sunday afternoon, June 9. The girl (short stature, long dark hair, tattoo on her calf) who took our order did so in such an inattentive and arrogant manner that it really ruined our experience at this place. We were all left with the bad feeling that we should not have gone to eat there. His attitude was so arrogant, aggressive and reckless, which is really a shame. Apart from having a very bad time with the order, we never knew what language to refer to the waiter in as we tried English, German and Spanish and still got the opposite of what we were ordering. The same girl who took the order also brought something to the table, which she did (of course) in the same smug manner as when placing the order. Tipp for the owner: Hey! Treat your customers in a better way, the majority of people who go to buy an arepa do so more for the experience of feeling at home than for any other reason!!

The best Arepas i tried in Berlin! I love the Pabellon and Papellon. The place is cozy and the staff is really nice

Food was delicious. Excited to have Cachapas. Staff were very friendly.

Very good arepas in Berlin, one of the best. I recommend the dominó if you are vegetarian.

Incredible place, pleasant atmosphere and divine food.

Here you can safely eat gluten-free and, above all, extremely delicious! The arepas and yuca fries are to die for.

Pffff... I'm not going to reveal my insider tips here 😝😋😛😋😛😋😛

Quite expensive, but a very small portion and the food lacked taste. Very nice service however and chilled out to sit

Delicious arepas at reasonable price - quick service too!

Very nice place to eat Arepa !.

Delicious food, very good spicy sauces and friendly service. The best Arepas in Berlin!

It made me very happy to pause here to eat something new. Excellent atention. The vegan arepa and the yuquitas with spicy sauce… uffff

The vegan arepa is really good... this is one of my new favorite places now :)

Ok so food looks good and fresh! But must focus the bad customer service! Since arriving wasn’t welcome at all! I understood there is only one guy serving but that is not excuse to make uncomfortable to the customer that just wanted to enjoy a good taste of Latin food, and I left with an irritated stomach because of his rude attention! Sadly couldn’t taste the product now can not extend my review to that part.

Everything excellent, arepas 💯, chicha and cachapa only Thursday

I recently had a fantastic experience at Rubens Arepas in Berlin. Carmela and Mariana were both very helpful and provided outstanding service. Their friendliness made my visit even more enjoyable. I am very satisfied with their attentive and professional work. Delicious food 10/10.

Divinely kind staff. We were honestly shocked by how unique and fresh the tastes are. Old school prices and a great location for people watching.

In a three day stay in Berlin I’ve been here twice for an Arepa Pabellón. It was the most delicious gluten free, savoury, sweet, spicy and cheesy dish. Value for money is what you get here. It’s a small shop with some places to eat but I chose take away. They are pretty quick. Superb.

Heard about this place through word of mouth. Absolute find. Probably the most fresh and tastiest food I’ve had in Berlin so far! Staff are all lovely as well. Great spot! Glad I went to that afters lol.

Had dinner here two nights in a row now, will probably come back tomorrow as well. The arepa Pabellón might be the most perfect food I have eaten in my life. Increadibly delicious, so many flavours and textures. Will return again and again.

Food was ok. The meat in Pelúa is a bit dry for a ragout. Seasoning was delicious. The arepa with chicken tasted quite neutral. We found the dough rolls with cheese to be too doughy and the cheese sank. The food keeps you full for a long time. Service was nice, waiting time was okay even though it was busy. Regarding cleanliness: tables and chairs were very dirty. It has to be possible to swipe over there.

Oh wow, that arepas. Extremely delicious. And I immediately remembered my trip to South America. It was also really pleasant to hang out in there. Go and eat arepas! Bam.

Food ofc is delicious. Nice to see a place to get arepas in Berlin that is not a food truck. Congrats on that! The arepas are not as big as you would expect for that price. Any colombian or venezuelan would know that. Its a great place to show foreigners what arepas are tho. The reina pepiada one had some sort of hardcheese that made it salty, so next time will def try the other ones. My highlights: Yuca, tequeños and chicha! The place needs more cooks as the staff can clearly get overwhelmed with the demand. Cachapas should also be available on regular days :D

Tiny place with a limited amount of seating room, but incredibly delicious arepas and a few amazing sides! Honestly was my first time trying all of this, but can only say the arepa I had with beef and black beans was incredible, the tequenos were very crispy and the corn dip that comes with it was fantastic, and the yuca fries were great, especially for the price! Very nice people working here, nothing but praise

Incredibly authentic food. Highly recommended for anyone who is hungry, big or small! Whether vegan or meat lover, there is something for everyone here.

Wow. Great introduction to arepas. I was also impressed by the yuca fries. Would have been amazing if I was had been more hungry - so I could have tried more of the menu.

Below average taste for an arepa and pretty small portion for the high price

We went eager to eat arepas and came across a place with very poor attention where the arepas are too small for how expensive they are, and for colmo they are not good. I went with a great group of friends and we were all very disappointed. Also the girl who takes my order was wrong, and instead of apologizing she told me. "I ran out of the pavilion arepa but I'll give you one of queen pepiate for you to solve." Without even asking myself if that looked good on me or if I was at least willing to accept that I would be swapped out of my pavilion arepa for another one. Neither I nor my friends will go back there. 🇩🇪 We are hanging out because we wanted arepas, and find a place with very poor service, where the arepas are too small for their high prices, and to all overflow they do not look good either. I was with a big group of friends there and we were all very friendly. Outside, the girl who took my order got ready, and instead of settling, she said, "I have the Arepas de Pabellon out, but I'll give you an Arepa de Reina Pepiada so you can find a solution. Except me wondering if that was in order for me or if I was at least ready to accept that my Arepa de Pabellón would be replaced by someone else. Where I will still take my friends back dorthin.

We ate very tasty and authentic arepas here. The service was also very nice. Is recommended!

Excellent food, cheap, good portion sizes, authentic, great atmosphere. Don’t miss it!

Genuinely one of my favourite places in Berlin for good food. The yuca fries are really solid and crispy, and everything is filling and absolutely packed with flavour.

I haven’t had many arepas before but still I can tell that these are extremely good! Had the vegan one and really loved it, maybe a bit more tomato would be nice but it’s great! The plantain was crazy good!

Incredibly delicious arepas that are gluten-free and also suitable for celiac disease

The Arepa are nice but the lack of igiene is really there! Hair s dog on the floor ,everything is extremely dirti and messy where they serve the Arepas..everything is fat ..the windows ,the furniture. Please upgrade your place with some clean and for sure you will have more client!

Delicious arepas, especially the vegetarian version is surprising. Better than any Reina Pepiada, except of course my homemade one.

Excellent service, the most delicious arepas I have tried in the 6 years that I left Venezuela, the place lacks decoration and lighting but everything is excellent

Rarely have I been so surprised! We tried our way through the menu and really enjoyed every dish. The owner is really very friendly and luckily we were there today because the extremely nice waiter/chef Eugen (quick when serving and with his sayings) always creates the special dish on Thursdays. All in all: definitely try it out!

Super delicious food, friendly service, everything was top notch. Next branch in xberg/Neukölln please!!

Best little street food corner on Warshauer Strabe!

Delicious. Had an arepa. All ingredients high quality. Service was excellent.

Absolutely amazing food. The Reina and the yucca fries are heavenly. The malt drinks are also quite good. (This was way too much for two people but we couldn’t limit down the choices.)

Great arepas! Super authentic food, impressed by them having cheeses I thought were only available in Venezuela.

Very tasty and very cool everyone, friendly family atmosphere, good music too 🎵

had a quick stop here during a stroll through town, such a friendly staff and the food is amazing, the vegan acipa is heavenly good 🥰❤️❤️ also, food was really extremely fast!!

Tasty, quick place for something different. I had the chicken and avocado Arepa and it was great. Prices fair too. Not somewhere where you would stop for a long meal, but perfect for a quick bit to eat.

Very good arepas! Preferably from the nice colleague with the beard who always stays in control even when the shop is full and makes the most delicious arepas!!

Essen war sonst 5/5, bei meinem letzten Besuch leider etwas trockenerer Maisfladen und nicht mehr so üppig belegt, daher 4/5. Allerdings musste ich am Ende unseres Besuchs eine erschreckende Erfahrung mit der Belegschaft machen, die sich beim Bezahlvorgang offensichtlich auf Spanisch und per Mimik über mich lustig machte. Blöd nur, dass ich Spanisch spreche und verstehe. Der Grund hierfür ist mir schleierhaft, da vorher nie passiert. Für mich ein absolutes No Go und dementsprechend Grund genug hier nie wieder zu essen.

Not worth it. The taste of the arepa is way below average and the atmosphere in the restaurant isn't nice at all.

Súper ricas arepas! Y muy simpático servicio

Absolutely fantastic arepas, salsas and yuka fries Super yummy and quite affordable as well Only one slightly negative point - no bathroom in the place

Super Yummy. Allerdings wird bei Lieferungen kein Dip mitgeliefert (für Yukafries) was sehr schade ist. Arepas absoluter Knaller !

Had a great time at the arepa spot! Food was delish, and the crew was so friendly. Definitely gonna hit it up again. And those veggie options? Top-notch! Totally recommend it! 🌮🎉

Es war so lecker! Glutenfreies Superfood :) Eine super Alternative zu Burger & Fries!

De mis lugares favoritos en Friedrichshain. Vengo varias veces al mes porque es demasiado rico. Recomendado.

amazing food ❤️‍🔥 friendly staff and super cozy

It was a long time since I ate this good!! Super recommended, cozy and friendly place. The guys running it are amazing!!
