A new Venezuelan spot, which specializes in authentic arepas, has debuted in the neighborhood. Called Arepa Factory Latin Cafe, the new addition is located at 11142 N. 30th St. in University Square.

Arepa Factory Latin Cafe specializes in classic Latin food and comfort foods, with a menu that features items like burgers, omelets and empanadas and tequeños. Customers may also order up arepas with a variety of fillings — from ham and cheese to shredded chicken and avocado to scrambled egg and tomato.

With a five-star rating out of 13 reviews on Yelp so far, Arepa Factory Latin Cafe has already made a good impression.

Yelper Chamo Q. wrote, "Excellent food, fast service, clean and easy access. I'm so glad a Venezuelan cafe opened very close to my family's home here in Tampa."

Yelper Velda S. added, "Although I asked for the arepas to be fried, they had the nicest light taste with a light crisp with each bite that I took. This light and savory crispiness put such a huge smile on my face — so delicious! The cafe con leche was, again, light and delicious! Empanadas also didn't disappoint."

Intrigued? Stop in to try it for yourself. Arepa Factory Latin Cafe is open from 9 a.m.–9 p.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m.–9:30 p.m. on Saturday. (It's closed on Sunday.)
