    Yummy Colombian food, plates have decent amount of food, the only thing is that the steak they over cook it so if u want it medium well ask literally for rare (lol) empanadas are good, freshly made juices, colombian platter is delicious, super clean, nicely decorated with typical Colombian stuff, bathroom is very neat as well, lot of people do take out so I like that fact that its never crowded, they have a bar as well. You basically never have to wait to be seated or at least when I’ve been there it never has been.

    I have been coming here for many months with my family. The food is delicious, the service from the waitresses is very friendly and very nice. The place is impeccable!. The ONLY reason this is not a five star review is because the music is very depressing, brings the mood down. Does not match Spanish culture, which is bubbly and festive🎊🎊.

    Food was very very tasty! I ordered a bandeja tipica and my mom and her friend ordered a fish dish. Along with 3 guava smoothies. The service at this place is horrible!!! But the food does partially make up for it in my opinion. The waitress we had, had an attitude, was super inattentive and just overall looked like she didn’t want to serve us! Not friendly or welcoming at all!

    Love this place. Friendly and great staff backed up by outrageously good food. My go to items are carne asada, beef empanadas, tostones and guacamole and of course the flan. But anything I have tried off the menu has been delicious.

    Fantastic! Found this diamond in the rough completely by accident. The food was absolutely delicious and priced perfectly! I got the platter. It had a little bit of everything and a side of rice and beans. If you are looking for some great eats, this needs to be a destination on your food radar for sure! I will definitely be making a return trip for sure.

    I've been here a total of two times. The first time was several years ago, and I just recently went again a few days ago (August 2021). I ordered an appetizer, the Tostones with Aguacate (guacamole). That was actually quite good. My mother thought the guacamole was too salty but I enjoyed a lot. We had great drinks as well. I go the Guanabana (Soursop) in milk, and that was great. For my main dish I ordered the Bandeja Especial de la Casa (House Special Platter). It comes with Rice and Beans and 3 different meats. My favorite part of my meal by far was the rice and beans that came with that order. Truly authentic taste and I could honestly have ate only that. The meats, however is the reason they are getting 4 stars. The waiter asked me if I wanted the steak well done or medium. When I got it, it looked well done anyway. It was a thing piece of steak so there wasn't much room for error In the cooking process but I didn't like it. It was Chewy and I had to struggle a bit more than I would have liked to cut and eat it. The Chicken was too burnt on the outside. The skin wasn't juicy and flavorful, that's often the best part of rotisserie chicken like this. Then in addition to that, the chicken was super dry. I know it was white meat, chicken breast, so I shouldn't have been expecting the juiciest chicken ever but I still think it was too dry. I compared it to the rotisserie chicken I could get from Costco, which was cheaper and much less dry. The only saving grace on the meat platter was the pork. That's really only because it was not bad in comparison. It was good, nothing exceptional. I wish I had stuck with my original decision to get only a pork platter. Conclusion: Overall decent Columbian experience but would not choose to go here again. Meat was not cooked to my liking. The place was clean and the staff was nice.

    Food is good. I called and asked what time they closed they told me 9:30 told them we would be there soon. Arrived 9:15 they would not let us in and we're a bit rude. Wasted my time.

    Great food..good prices. Staff is friendly. Would definitely recommend

  • 5/5 Taste B. 11 months ago on Google
    Food is really good here. Nothing fancy just bare bone with good food. Service could be better but if you are looking to eat good colombian food at an affordable price, this is your spot. I've had just about everything on the menu and have not been disappointed yet. Definitely check this place out but remember to be patient, the service isn't breaking any speed records

  • 2/5 bootsdad13 1 year ago on Google
    Simply eh. Very expensive for some dry chicken that wasn’t seasoned very well. I could’ve thrown a chicken in the oven and doused it in standard Spanish style seasoning.

  • 5/5 jessica r. 1 year ago on Google

    Delicious chicharones and the steak was very tender and flavorful. Empanadas were just okay, but would still get them. The prices are on par with other Colombian restaurants. Staff was exceptionally kind and very friendly.

  • 3/5 Cristian C. 1 year ago on Google
    The Food is good but doesn't have much variety in the plate as other Colombian restaurants in queens, it's also very pricey..!!

  • 1/5 Lindsay M. 1 year ago on Google
    Let me start by saying that we have been to multiple Colombian restaurants and by far this has been the worst experience my family and I had. The service is horrible, we ordered a bandeja paisa with chicken (grilled chicken) we were told “we can’t do that”, in order to get grilled chicken we had to buy an entire additional order. We said we would pay extra for the grilled chicken and still they didn’t want to give us just the piece of grilled chicken. I asked for extra sauce and the girl seemed offended by this, we also ordered the arepa choclo and it was hard! We had to pay for two orders of food just to get the grilled chicken we wanted because “they can’t do that”. We have never dealt with this situation where you go to a restaurant and the client is denied what they want to order. Horrible experience and will definitely never come back!!! I will let my entire family know of this and we have a very big family that lives around the area.

    Great rice and beans. Empanadas were top notch. Deeeeeelicious. I did take out but next time I will sit in. The soup looked amazing. Whole roasted chicken at tables. Yummy. Great place. Recommend.

    The food was excellent. The customer service was amazing. Even my non-hispanic family loved the food. I really enjoyed my time there, the music, the atmosphere.

    had bandeja paisa but the avocado is stale and the brand sticker still in the avocado peel fresh from marketplace - now i’m thinking if this is even washed properly before serving to customer

  • 1/5 antoine f. 2 years ago on Google
    Horrible...Horrible ... Horrible ! Service bad , woman started sweeping the floor right next to our table while we were eating. Fried Snapper had no taste , salmon with the sauce was under cooked , 11$for appetizer of 5 small shrimp. Place had no hot sauce to put on the bland fish , iceberg salad garbage , and they have the nerve to not offer any bread along with no hot sauce . A NIGHTMARE . Must be family members who gave this place good reviews.

👍👍 Not sure if this location at one time was owned by the same people who own any of the other Emily's in Beach Park and/or Waukegan (now Carmen's) but either way, great food here. Finally made it out here this past January following a snowstorm and was a pleasant 1st experience. Good food at reasona...
