I think I might've just ordered the wrong things on the menu, but I got the vegan arepa and it was quite disappointing. The soy was flavorless and cold and the rest of the arepa was lackluster because of it. I see other comments enjoying the bowls, and I suppose that's the big attraction to this spot bc it's a bowl version of Venezuelan food.
I also got the peanut butter shake which wasn't bad, but it was very very peanut buttery - which may be good to some people. So I don't dock them for that.
The staff was a bunch of hard working young men and they were very nice.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Dec 18, 2023
Really glad that Caraotas is bringing the Venezuelan flare to NYC. From the outside walking, you can see the sign and notice that arepas and milkshakes are their specialties. The inside is nice and bright and inviting too and I like that you can see what you're going to get.
Their bowls remind me of chipotle so I didn't to be traditional and get the arepa. I think you get more food with a bowl but it was still really good. They load up with the filling and the sauces are pretty flavorful. I definitely want to try their milkshakes and see what's up with those cause they looked too good to pass up.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Feb 24, 2024
Maybe I'm tripping but I don't understand the hype. I did really like the milkshake I got, it had real fruit in it and was nice and thick and I'm surprised it didn't melt from the delivery. But for the bowl, it had like very little seasoning and was just average - the rice was bland, the corn looked like it just came out of a can, the onions were raw not pickled. I wouldn't order from here again probably.

Caraotas is so delicious. I love everything about their bowls and arepas. Last night they didn't have arepas but I got the bowls and it was delicious as usual and super flavorful.
I always get the braised beef or pulled pork bowl and it's so good and healthy. It comes with jasmine rice that's so soft and aromatic, black beans and your choice of protein and sauces with a small amount of pico de gallo and lettuce. The cilantro sauce and sour cream is my go to. The sweet plantains added to the bowl is a plus as the sweet and savory just pairs so well together and gives your taste palate a sensational burst of fresh flavors.
I've ordered multiple times. They do mess up Ubereats orders and forget extra stuff added to the bowl but in person they get it just right. I highly recommend and their shakes are also amazing but I don't have a picture of that today.
The Ambiance in pretty laid back but I do mostly order out!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Apr 17, 2023
Tasty and filling!
After seeing Caraotas on TikTok and hearing neighbors rave about this place, I finally tried it. I really wanted a bowl with brown rice and chicken but they were out of brown rice so I settled for white rice. I also wanted chipotle sauce which they were out of. According to TikTok, guacamole isn't extra but upon arriving, I learned that wasn't true.
The reviews state that the milkshakes are delicious so I ordered the pistachio shake but the ice cream was way too frozen so I couldn't get my shake.
While they were out of if a lot of stuff, what they did have was delicious and fresh so I gave it four stars. Would have given it five if they weren't out of everything. I'll try it again in a couple of weeks and hope all the options are available and that I can get my free milkshake as promised :).Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 2 - 606256579May 21, 2023
I got the pulled pork (pernil) bowl and they FILLED it up. It's pretty to look at because of all the colors of the toppings and it was tasty too. Each bowl came with plantains which I was happy about. I would come back to try their burgers next time I'm in Bushwick.

Highly satisfied with the food!! The staff was very efficient while making the food and assisting other customers. The place is a bit small however if you're looking for a quick delicious Venezuelan food this is your place.

Food was absolutely delicious, my wife created her own bowl and it was very fulfilling. I ordered a double cheeseburger combo and the burger was fresh as well as the fries. When ordering at the counter the service was simple and quick. There is bar like seating inside against the walls and a few tables on the outside. Just a heads up if you eat outside it's on a fairly busy street, so you'll get the sounds of cars and whatever music they're listening too! Restaurant is kept very clean and the music is kept at a good volume. We will be returning for the milkshakes for sure!
