About Us
The Arepa Place specializes in a Colombian and Venezuelan dish known as arepas. We were founded in Cincinnati in 2016 by owner, Isis Arrieta-Dennis, who is originally from Colombia. She and her mother (also named Isis) are responsible for all the recipes. After more than two years of using Findlay Kitchen and serving food on the weekends from a pop-up tent, we opened our first brick-and-mortar at Findlay Market in October 2018.
We have immense passion for the cuisine that we create and the experiences that are shared over food. We love serving the people of the Greater Cincinnati area, and we hope everyone enjoys our authentic Colombian dishes. Thank you for visiting our website, and we look forward to seeing you soon!
Our stuffed arepas are made the traditional way! First, we boil and grind the corn. After kneading the dough, we make the patties that are then grilled. Lastly, the arepa is cut open and filled with your choice of mozzarella cheese, black beans, fried plantains, shredded beef, chorizo, and/or chicken. We even serve delicious breakfast arepas!
We also make cheese arepas by mixing mozzarella into the corn dough before grilling the patties. It’s the Colombian version of a grilled cheese!
Each arepa comes with a choice of one of our four homemade salsas.
Lastly, we also serve delicious empanadas made from freshly ground corn. These corn pockets are stuffed with mozzarella cheese, shredded chicken, ground beef, or potato and eggplant before being deep-fried.
