"O M G After having had arepa's in Venezuela I must say Arepera El Jagüey superseded my memory of a really yummy staple food. These were 'muy deliciosa y sabrosa!!!' El Jagüey's were the yummiest arepa's I have ever had; just the right consistency, crispy yet soft, a great bite and flavoursome mouthful each bite, the arepas full and largish. The beef and 3 cheese fillings were amazing and combined sublime. Arepas were only 3-4 euro's each. My mouth waters thinking back of our meal here and it will be easy to indulge in these as frequently as we will manage during our stay on the island. Staff were kind and accommodating (and have some quirky space management solutions behind the bar), the mostly local guests were friendly to chat with and parking was easy. What an unexpected treat (we just landed on Tenerife when we visited)!"

"Cheap and tasty food. Big size of meals. Wasn't able to finish it. A lot of locals inside. However, waiter woman was very tiered."

"Best Empanadas - if you're looking for (good) Venezuelan food, this is it! But don't take deserts, my husband got one that was expired for over 2 weeks and covered in mold once open."

"Arepera en un local de muy pequeño tamaño. Hay pocas mesas en el interior por lo que es preferible coger la comida para llevar. Aún tener poco espacio y pocas mesas debes esperar a ser atendido por el volumen de pedidos que tienen. Arepas y cachapas de varios tipos y sabores tanto fritas como asadas."

"Las empanadas estaban buenísimas les recomiendo la de diablitos, con verdadero sabor venezolano y además con bastante variedad. La chica que me atendió fue muy amable, los baños estaban limpios y lo mejor: los precios están súper bien."
