i don't know if this is helpful since i'm pretty sure the owners are venezuelan, but oh my god caracas arepa bar. i've eaten there more times than i feel comfortable counting and everything i've ordered has been ridiculously good. they have a teeny location in manhattan (1st ave and 7th, i think?), but i always go to the one in williamsburg because it's much bigger and more comfortable.

Big Booty Bread Co in Chelsea (23rd nr 8th). They also have a huge selection of dulce de leche based desserts.

Check out the schedule of this great lady, serving on most week-ends authentic Colombian arepas in the streets of Jackson Heights: http://www.myspace.com/arepalady

The larger Seba Seba on 37th Ave. will give you and your friends more room to enjoy them, and you'll find many other Colombian businesses in the neighborhood, too (I like Aqui Colombia Antojitos). For a detour to Cafecito Bogota, in Greenpoint, and its prodigious arepas montadas, weekend brunch might be your best bet.

I like to go to a restaurant called La Nueva in Queens. I think its on 35th and 82nd or something, 1 avenue parallel to Roosevelt Avenue. They have much more than just arepas, but that is what I always get! Their fried yuca rocks, in case you are interested.
And for the record, the service at Caracas is bad, and last time I went I waited 1 hour for an arepa with premade ingredients. Needless to say, I won't be going back anytime soon.

El Cocotero @ 228 W. 18th St; I found it through Yelp and really loved their arepas and sangria—the space is really good for a late afternoon meal with friends

Big Booty Bread Co is overpriced and kinda sucks, in general. Good cookies is about it
