What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"the churros and the reina & gouda arepa were phenomenal! the portion size of the arepa was a bit small in my opinion but filling nonetheless. quick service and nice laid back atmosphere with outdoor seating. churros were nice and crispy."

"Amara’s Cafe is a Venezuelan cafe that makes mornings feel special. I stopped by around 8 a.m. and immediately loved the calm, relaxed atmosphere with no crowds and no wait. It was the perfect time to enjoy breakfast with good coffee. I ordered the Galipan cachapa, a traditional Venezuelan dish that is basically a sweet corn pancake cooked until golden and folded over with salty cheese. The plate came with flavorful black beans, fluffy scrambled eggs, tangy sour cream, a bright green salsa, and tender shredded meat. It was a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and creamy in every bite. For a seasonal touch, I had the pumpkin latte which was smooth, spiced just right, and not too sweet. As an added surprise, they brought out a complimentary plate of churros with chocolate. The churros were crisp and warm and the chocolate sauce was rich and glossy, a perfect way to end the meal. The service was just as good as the food. The cashier was welcoming and gave excellent recommendations that made it easy to choose dishes worth trying. Overall Amara’s Cafe delivers authentic Venezuelan flavors with a relaxed modern cafe setting. The food is thoughtful, the service is warm, and the morning ambiance is calm and inviting. It is definitely a place worth visiting again."

"Wonderful food and friendly service. We came here for the 2 time within a week just because this is such a great breakfast place. Also, they have very good coffee with some cool options like spicy coffee or dulce de leche coffee."

★★★★★

"The ideal place for quality and fast breakfast with perfectly made Venezuelan cuisine. We’ve had Meat & Plantains Cachapa with pork and el Criollo plate with chicken. Everything was authentic and delicious- probably best Venezuelan place across CA and Utah which we tried. Friendly and fast service! Maybe a little bit expensive, but well worth it!"

★★★★★

"Drinks we had were good. Food is ok. Dessert was very good! Small space inside. Some outside seating by the walkway. Structure parking. Elevators were not working. Had to use a few flights of stairs."
