Taste was ok and nothing special. But I felt like I was spending special prices. My kids did not enjoy their meal and they're huge fans of meat rice potatoes usually. Portions are generous or maybe it just felt that way because we weren't devouring our food. I didn't feel like things were seasoned enough. I didn't like how the flank steak turned out- I was expecting actual steak, not something that looked like it was boiled for hours. I dunno- but it was just very meh all around. Service was quick and prompt.

The food was of course amazing! seasoned well, even the rice! One thing for sure. Their corn cakes. I usually don't care or that cause it's usually dry, cold, and tasteless. This place on the other hand was warm, crispy, and a touch of salt which is a plus to me! The chicharon. Pfft... forget about it. Crispy on the outside. Soft and tender! Oh man I just need like sauces to dip! to give it that nice finish! Everything else on the dish was cooked perfectly. The plantains was nice and soft and sweet, the chicken was fall off the bone, the steak was juicy and not overly tough! Definitely give this place a try! I would definitely order from here again!

This is the spot…read more This is the spot for a huge platter of delicious Colombian food, perhaps before you go dance it off at the nearby Knockdown Center. I'm not going to pretend that I am the best person to determine what an authentic Colombian experience is (never had the pleasure of visiting Colombia), but if this isn't it, I can't imagine what they're missing. The staff speaks to you in Spanish exclusively, which made me glad one of my boys is Honduran. The TVs all over the place are playing what appear to be Colombian music videos that were made in the 80s featuring old men and attractive young women. They've got buckets of Colombian beer and frosted mugs so cold that the beer turned to slush around the sides. They've got a platter called the Bandeja la Berraca that consists of rice, beans, steak, plantains, eggs, avocado salad, little corn cakes, blood sausage, other sausage (amazing), and a giant side of chicharron. Eat and drink to you're bursting, while adorable Colombian kids run around the place. And rejoice that you live in NYC, where these things can be had.

The food was really good. I tried the breaded pork loin, cazuela de frijoles and steak topped with mushroom sauce. Everything was really great and the portions were very generous. Be cautious because they charge the gratuity automatically on the bill even for small groups. I don't mind this but if you aren't paying attention you could be over tipping.

We also ordered a refajo (It's a traditional Colombian cocktail made with beer and "Colombiana", which is a soda from Colombia. It is a very simple and quick recipe but refreshing) I wanted to try their chicken and boy oh boy their chicken was so flavorful. I definitely recommend their roasted chicken. My boyfriend and I shared the bandeja paisa which is a typical Colombian dish. It was so filling; everything on that plate tasted good. I really liked the beans and the chicharron; the chicharron wasn't hard to chew which I have experienced before at other Colombian restaurants. It was a lively restaurant experience, there were a good amount of tables filled up and as our main entree arrived I realized it was because the Colombian soccer team had a game going on at the time I was dining at the restaurant. Great restaurant to watch a soccer game over some yummy food. The service from the staff was friendly and the ambiance was top notch. The restaurant went wild when the Colombian soccer team scored. All in all, this is an amazing restaurant. 10/10 experience and restaurant recommendation

I also asked for two empanadas of cheese and two on chicken. When I got there I wasn't greeted at all she had this nasty attitude. When I got in my car I noticed my drinks were both very low compared to the fact I paid full price for them and my empanadas weren't cheese ones they were beef. I've been going here for years for these smoothies I've always gotten them to the top and when I told her this she said oh well I used the same ingredients and the foam was a lot. No resolution and no accountability for getting my order wrong. Terrible new staff.

Why 4 stars? Because these arepas were different, but enjoyable…read more --- --- --- To-date, I apparently have only had Venezuelan arepas and wasn't aware of how different Colombian arepas were. Colombian arepas (or at least the ones here) come with a sweet, corn tortilla and are more open faced: to be eaten with a fork. In the past, I've had flour tortillas that are designed more like a taco and eaten as a handheld. So despite the differences, I (and my friends) enjoyed our meal. Let the official record state, I ordered the arepas con queso with chorizo. We had plans to eat our way through Jackson Heights, but because a couple of the places we planned to visit were closed, we actually just mostly hung out here and enjoyed our arepas of the sweet and open-faced variety. It was a good afternoon.

This was my first time trying an arepa, and honestly it was one of the best introductions I could…read morehave asked for. Before this, if someone mentioned arepas, I probably would have confused them with pupusas, which I'd only seen at street fairs and thought of as more of a sweet item. I had no idea they came in savory versions too. I went with the carne asada arepa, and the beef was fresh, juicy, and cooked just right. It's so common for places to overcook little chunks of beef, but here it was perfect. Each arepa is big enough to split between two people, so the price feels very fair. The filling was generous, with beef packed inside and even overflowing out the sides. They also serve the arepas with a rack of five or six sauces to choose from. Some were spicy, and one had a sweet condensed milk flavor if you like a mix of sweet and savory. My go to ended up being this green mayonnaise sauce which I assumed was like some sort of a lime mayo, which added the perfect tartiness to the rich cheese filling.

Particularly yummy is their rendition of the guava and cheese pastry which I bought several times…read moreespecially recently! Flaky with guava paste and cheese as the filling, it also has a sugar glaze on top. Wow, their bunuelos, corn patties and pan de bono are excellent! The dough part of these three types of baked goods is just right. I also tried the wheat bun with a little bit of guava in it. Nice bakery for a pick me up if you are up for trying Latino bakery items. Even with their limited English, the staff are helpful and provided good customer service. There are also savory dishes besides Latin baked goods if that is what you are looking for. Haven't tried the savory food, but the soup looks interesting. Maybe next time when I happen to be in Flushing again!
