Our Grandma’s Legacy

Chellas Arepa Kitchen honors our grandmother “Chellas” with every dish as a tribute to her warmth in the kitchen and passion for food. Her nickname reminds us of the traditions she passed down, and we blend those lessons with fresh, gluten-free recipes for a modern twist. Each menu item, from Peruvian classics to Venezuelan-inspired bites, carries her sense of care and community. We invite you to taste her legacy in every arepa.
