The potato salad was smooth with some chunks of potatoes and a light crunch from the veggies. My favorite was the beans that pair perfectly with the rice and meat! All this for only $12!!! Wow! I highly recommend it. I also tried their beef empanadas. They were excellent. They're fried to order and homemade. There's a lot of filling and the beef inside is perfectly seasoned. The last time I had empanadas this good was at my Puerto Rican friend's house where his grandma made them! A close second was in Rincon, Puerto Rico. These are that good. They're a must try. This a lovely local neighborhood corner takeout restaurant. You can call ahead to order your food to avoid the the wait. The owner and staff are all very friendly and happy to answer any questions and provide recommendations. They have a tv in the waiting area and some drinks for sale. Inside is very clean and everything looks new and well organized. The food all homemade and delicious. Portions are very generous and a great value for what the charge. I'm looking forward to trying more of their food. I highly recommend it! It's definitely worth a trip to check it out. Support your local restaurants.

I like that the menu is on a tablet and you can choose English if you don't speak Spanish. The waitress was very helpful. And at one point the owner came over to speak to us about our food. There was a little mixup with one dish but she fixed the error. As a perk if you leave a review you get a shot. So one of our companions left a review right then and the whole table got shots! It was great. I would definitely recommend this lovely place. I gave it 4/5 stars ONLY because it's street parking and parking is hard.

HORRID customer service I made a delivery order that cost…read moreupwards of 80 dollars which was supposed to have three large portion meals with the rice and meat and beans separated. I had ordered these previously and each one of those meals could feed at least two people. What I received instead were three mini styrofoam lunch boxes that could barely feed a child each. when I called to ask what happened, the worker was extremely rude and condescending. To the point of saying the back end cooks set the prices for the food. What? It's not the restaurant management? Why would they function like this? She was clearly lying. They could have had a great, loyal client, but instead their rudeness has kept me off of their restaurant. Never again will I order from them. By the way, food is just ok. If you're going to be expensive and rude, your food better be top notch.

For starters, our waitress was extremely kind and sweet we had great conversation. We got the colombian burger which was amazing and perfectly cooked. The paisa was perfect tasted just like home. Authentic as it should be. And as always my absolute favorite, traditional colombian empanadas. I think we do it best and this place definitely did it perfectly. The place also has some very cute seating. I would totally make the drive again just for this.

They also gave me two sets of cutlery which was a win for me. Most places usually forget to add cutlery. I ordered the Bandeja Paisa| 8oz NY Strip Steak. The meal came with steak, sausage, pork belly, white rice & beans, sweet plantains, Colombian corn cake,fried egg and avocado. All for $23 (in 2025). I also got a Goodo brand cola champagne. Money well spent because the food was delicious. The portion size was enough for two servings. Everything was seasoned well and cooked to perfection. I live two hours away and am willing to drive the distance for the food again it was that good. Ten out of ten definitely recommend.

Well, I am here to tell you to stop in and eat everything off the menu, because it is AMAZING! We have been here twice and both times were good, but breakfast was better. I ordered the Gallo Pinto, which is a Costa Rican dish that includes black beans mixed with rice, a meat, fried cheese, egg, sausage, sweet plantains and a tortilla. The rice alone is worth having, so definitely give this a try. It is a magnificent spread that can feed two or good for sharing with a hungry toddler like mine. Hubby had the Chifrijol (black beans, white rice, crunchy fried pork layered on top pico de gallo & avocado) which was JUST as tasty just a bit small on the portion compared to mine. But a bargain for the $10 price, so absolutely give it a try for the chicharron (pork rinds) alone! Now as far as the bakery goes, we ordered a slab (yes, a mean a slab) of their corn bread and it is the best thing I've tasted in a while. It is a combination of perfectly homemade mixed with hints of the motherland that really make it out of this world. Each additional bite made it more and more appetizing. Get this. My toddler also wanted pancakes which we got 3 kid portion pancakes WITH bacon for only $4! And for a Latin spot, they make amazing pancakes! I also have to add that the service here is great, the whole restaurant is sparking clean and so cute inside. You get warm bread as you wait for your meal. The coffee is phenomenal and comes in GIANT mug. I really can't say more except...come spend your money here....order grub hub from here...and let me know if you like it!
