Many people in Oklahoma are familiar with our tasty Italian restaurants or excellent Mexican eateries, but we do have many exotic ethnic selections that are amazing. At El Arepaso, in Tulsa, you can get authentic Venezuelan dishes for lunch or dinner. Enjoying a meal at El Arepaso will make you feel like you have left the country, but no passport is required here.
El Arepaso is located at 8036 South Yale Avenue in Tulsa. They are open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Inside this small family-owned restaurant is an inviting atmosphere. You order at the counter and then hope you can find a seat, as they are usually pretty busy.
The most popular menu item is the "Patacon," which is a fried sandwich filled with lettuce, cabbage, tomato, ham, cheese, and the protein of your choice. It is delicious and comes highly recommended.
If you are feeling a little more adventurous, we suggest you try this traditional Venezuelan dish that comes with shredded beef, black beans, and rice. The flavor truly is incredible and will make you an instant fan of Venezuelan food.
Their hand-squeezed juices are also something you will not find in very many places throughout the city.
Another menu item to try is the "Cachapa." It's a sweet corn pancake with cheese and cream inside and out.
The passion fruit cheesecake is homemade and also gluten-free. It's so light and fluffy, and of course, homemade to perfection.
