Celiac Safety Score

Excellent for Celiac

Somos Handcrafted Arepas is a rare haven for celiacs—this is a dedicated gluten-free facility where you can actually relax and enjoy every bite. Their menu is built around Venezuelan classics like arepas, cachapas, and empanadas, all made from naturally gluten-free corn dough and prepared in a kitchen where cross-contamination isn’t just minimized—it’s nearly eliminated. While a few non-GF baked goods are stored in a separate case, they’re kept well away from the main prep areas and staff are refreshingly knowledgeable about celiac needs. Honestly, it’s such a relief to have a spot where you don’t have to ask a million questions—just pick your fillings, savor the crispy arepa shell or sweet cachapa, and breathe easy.
