Took the entire family to this place for a birthday celebration . They were great in accommodating all of us. The service was good and quick. The food hit the spot when you are craving the chicarrón.

I used to LOVE THIS PLACE . I had rated it 4 previously. I…read morehad rated 4 I've been here countless times and ALWAYS order the same thing and always sit in the same place. They know me. Consistency in recipes AND presentation is crucial. I went in tonight, expecting the same flavors, appearance, as I've always had. Tonight was especially awful, food AND service . The meat was completely cooked on a cast iron pan , instead of browned on the grill then placed in the pan . If not it braises and not grills ( initial moisture ), The onions were not even soft, previously always translucent The potatoes weren't roasted on the pan with the meat, they were deep fried separately and put on the plate . They used to be Roasted with the meat .Normally the meat is charred and as it sets on the platter AuJus drips out for the onions to cook in. Service was abysmal. She never came to the table after the entree was brought. I asked for Flan and coffee. The flan came, coffee didn't come till much later. There was WAY TO MUCH SOCIALIZING. Two waitress were talking and not looking up to see me waving like a motorist Stuck waiting for AAA. The chef had me and one other table, of an adult and a child. Actions like this by employees have a direct impact on the business. I don't complain, but as much as I've loved this place, I'd never go back. STOP GOOFING OFF CHEF, AND THE Two ladies on the floor. Such a shame, No ignoring customers just to chat with fellow employees. I am a retired Personal Chef, I Only expect CONSISTENCY. Remember: Specials are the chefs chance to recreate and create. One must NEVER change recipes regulars are used too

The flavors are deep and rich and give you a real sense of what good Colombian food should taste like. The plates are affordable and filling as well. Greta combination for my wallet! The ladies who work there are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about each dish so feel free to ask questions. It's a small place that fills up easily, but once you're seated you will be comfortable and don't have to worry about getting rushed out. At this kind of restaurant, they will almost always ask if you want a tinto or small coffee after your meal, which is thought to help settle the belly. Go for it if that's your thing! I can't recommend this place enough!

I got the chicharrones with rice and beans and potato salad (comes with half an avocado). Every aspect of the meal was delicious. The pork was perfectly crispy, the rice was soft and delicious. The beans also paired perfectly with the rice. The staff was also super sweet and friendly. I would definitely come back for more and for breakfast. I saw a lot of New York breakfast friendly options on the menu for a very reasonable price. They take cash, credit card, and apple pay!

Very disappointing experience. I placed an order and called back within minutes to change it, and…read morewas told it was "not allowed" and that either I would have to pay for the original order or they would. That makes no sense, especially considering how quickly I called back. Even more concerning, when I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor, I was told there wasn't one available. That's unacceptable for any business. Instead of helping resolve a simple issue, they made it unnecessarily complicated. Customer service here needs serious improvement.

I was impressed by the large variety of options on this menu. I ordered an empanada to start followed by a mini bandeja. There was nothing mini about it! As you can see by the pic, portion size are not skimpy. Overall, the dish was good, only thing I would change was the steak. Had a little too much fat for my liking. But the chicharron and frijoles were great. The jugo de guanabana was delicious. Empanada was good too, though I would've liked a bit more of a flavor kick. They have a few tables and bar area for indoor dining and a covered section outside. Restaurant was busy, with customers dining in or picking up orders. Seems like a staple for the local community which is great to see. Service was friendly and moderately paced. Will return if in the area!

We came on a Sunday night around 6pm and the place was crowded, but we got a seat right away and service was very quick. The food was superb.

Our friends had the Entraña and their son had the Pechuga de Pollo Apanada and all were incredibly filling and incredibly delicious. We washed it all down with a pitcher of sangria.

The jalea was outstanding--it came with a generous amount of shrimp, fish, calamari, and perfectly crispy fried yuca (cassava). Every bite was flavorful, and the seafood tasted fresh. The portions were generous, the service was attentive, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations.

Their locations are not fancy and are the Colombian equivalent of American diners. This means a big menu with a bakery section too. While there are better Colombian places out there, I found this place to be decent. For example, the portion size of their Bandeja Paisa was huge and everything tasted fresh. The pastries (bunuelos and pan de bono) were also good quality and fresh. If you're looking for a Colombian place to take the family that serves everything, Noches de Colombia fits the bill.

Totally decked out for Halloween we took a seat all the way to the right and towards a corner. We were a group of six, and we came with appetites.
