El Maìz - Venezuelan Street Food

I know it's not Italian food, but El Maiz should definitely be on your list for Rome! They are 100% GF and some of the best arepas I've ever had (for context- I eat a LOT of Arepas). El Maiz is close to the Vatican and it's a tiny shop with just a few seats around the perimeter. There's an electronic kiosk outside where you put in your order either to have there or to takeaway. I particularly enjoyed the tostones(fried smashed plantains with pulled beef and avocado on top).  

-Venezuelan restaurant near the Vatican
-Lunch + Dinner
-Dedicated gluten free restaurant that offers arepas, empanadas, fried plantains and other Venezuelan food
-Great if you are wanting something other than pizza and pasta
