Another long overdo review. I had Lunch with the ladies and I chose to come here. We ordered a…read morebunch of food. What I remember was it was all so tasty but expensive. I do remember the warm sweet plantains. I have become addicted to them. Also had the shredded chicken empanadas and oh, so, good. The other ladies ordered a wrap and an arepita which I didn't try because they ate theirs so fast.

I've ordered from here many times befor but today I stopped in and ate "in house."…read more When u walked in I wasn't greeted , after a couple minutes I decided I would go to the restroom and come back as there seemed to be one waitress who was busy, and no host. I came back and waited about a minutes before I was acknowledged, I was sat and the waitress was attentive. I wanted to try the arepita appetizer which is normally served with shredded beef/pork or chicken on the side- to get a side of plantains instead of meat, it was going to add 3$ to the 14$ appetizer so I just opted to omit the meat all together and still had to pay the $14 ...which I don't feel is appropriate- people always wanna add money to sub a veggie for meat but never reduce the price when just removing the meat all together. Anyways, Ordered my food which was out promptly, the veggie bowl was delicious as always and the arepita appetizer (no meat) was good- reminded me of a fried potatoe cake, I used the arepitas as a vessel for my veggie bowl ! I brought the remainder of my bowl home where I bit into something very hard , once pulling it out of my mouth I discovered some beef snuck it's way into my dish- disappointing forsure but it is the first time out of about 10 times this has happened here. Prices have gone up over the last few years my veggie bowl was 18$.

I love plantain! Aleida's has the best plantain in town full stop! We were literally a few few…read moresteps from the restaurant where my sorority event was held (Summer Moon Coffee). Aleida's is a hidden treasure in a strip center near Summer Moon Coffee. The interior is lush with greenery and large wall length colorful mural. Today I noticed two walls of photos and paintings highlighting the Latin culture. This is a family owned business and it shows. The food feels like a its made with love. The flavors and presentation are personal. I ordered plantain (of course!), a corn breakfast taco with chicken and some Venezuelan flan. All were exceptional. My server was super personable and Texas friendly. He pleasantly persuaded me to try the Venezuelan flan because it was made by his mom. It does not take much for me to get weak at knees for dessert. Excellent, authentic restaurant...I highly recommend this restaurant.

They offered breakfast, brunch, lunch/dinner, and a full service bar! Pick your vibe for the meal, they've got it. The food was excellent. I got the cachapa and added the fried pork (per our waiters recommendation) and it was awesome. They even had a house made hot sauce that paired perfectly with it. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area!

We ordered tequenos, reina pepiada arepa, cachapa con queso, chicken empanada, malta, and a mango passion fruit juice (of the day). The cachapa was my favorite of the bunch because the combination of the corn pancake with the meat and cheese was divine. Also a special shoutout to the maltín because I loved it so much that I'm going to get one of these malt sodas anytime I see it available. There are plenty of tables available here to sit and eat your food, or you can take it to-go. They'll call your name once the food is ready after you order.

Our server was great! She was nice, checked on us and refilled our waters frequently. Entrees: - Pabellion Criollo: meat was a little too salty for my friend's taste but she said the rice balances it out really well. They accommodated her request for scrambled instead of fried eggs. - Asado Negro: Sooo good. It was like, beef and gravy, but better. They allowed me to sub the beans for extra rice - Surf and turf sandwich: Hubby said it was okay but adding more of the green sauce helped a bit - Filet mignon (can't remember the exact name): our other friend liked his staff as well! They also accommodated his request to have the egg on the side. I guess it could be a hole in the wall place since it's in an unassuming small business strip but the music was good and everyone loved the food! Be warned: there is only 1 bathroom so plan your potty break accordingly...

Ambiance: 4/5: cute restaurant, with outdoor seating. We were sat as soon as we got there…read more Restaurant is next to a main road so sitting outside can be kind of noisy sometimes. Service: 4/5: our waiter did a good job at checking on the table and taking our order on time. Nothing bad to point out. Food: 4/5: The food was better than what I expected. I ordered the stuffed chicken plate and I would order it again if I went back. The salsa that comes with the chips is a bit hot but so tasty. Definitely poured that on everything. Unfortunately, we didnt order drinks so couldn't rate my experience with that. Overall good experience

I thoroughly enjoyed my business trips to South America, particularly eating my way through…read moreColombia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and beyond. It's challenging to replicate the same experience locally, as these restaurants lack access to the fresh, local ingredients that define their unique cuisine. Casa Colombia does a good job replicating a true Colombian dining experience. Their menu is extensive with some very interesting offerings. Scanning the dining room, I noticed that their portions are huge. We started with a shrimp cocktail, an empanada, and their version of a rum - mango martini. The small option for the shrimp cocktail was bountiful and easily shared. The housemade cocktail sauce was a perfect accompaniment. The empanada was a tad dry, but their spicy salsa sauce was a great addition. Our "martini" was sweet but very satisfying on a warm afternoon. We did want to try their ceviche, but they are using tilapia as their fish. Quality Seafood is not too far away, and I'm sure that they could offer a better-tasting white fish than plain ole tilapia. We split one of their house specials, the Bandeja Paisa Tipica. This is a traditional Colombian dish, and it is a meat lover's dream served on an oversized platter. Our platter arrived with a chorizo link, beef sirloin, rice, red beans with pork, a huge fried chicharrón, an arepa, a sweet plantain, a slice of avocado (well, there's the only healthy portion), and a fried egg on top. We struggled to eat about 70% of this feast. It's going to take a few visits to the gym to work off this lunch. Dis & Dat: Parking is a breeze as they have their own parking lot. They do offer a happy hour that begins at 3 PM. A definite 4-plus star experience.

I ordered an Arepa con Carne Mechado y Queso and my boyfriend ordered the Mega Parilla Picada Arepa. We also both ordered drinks being the blackberry (mora) juice and mango juice. Both plates had plenty of meat (that was juicy and tender,) the arepa was moist and the drinks were extremely refreshing. It was a bit hard to order, good thing for a printed menu! No complaints on that though, to be expected with good food. If we asked for anything, it came quickly to the table. The seating was all outside, with a lot of picnic tables and lights. There was also a market in the back of the property that was fun to look around. Will definitely be stopping by again in the future.

Checked this place out in Leander, TX and overall had a really good experience. I…read moreordered the Loaded Bacon Fries, the Wildfire Burger, and the Brisket Arepa. The seating setup is a big win-I really liked the layout and the outdoor eating atmosphere. It gives the place a relaxed, enjoyable feel and makes it a nice spot to hang out and eat. Food-wise, everything was good, but the loaded bacon fries were a bit dry and could've used more sauce to really bring them together. The other items were solid and satisfying. I'm giving it 4 stars-great atmosphere and good food, just a little room for improvement with the fries. I'd still come back and try more off the menu.

Such a good little gem tucked away in a food truck lot in Leander!…read moreThey have plenty of parking and shaded seating with music playing, looked like maybe 4 trucks in total? There's also a decent play area that I *assume* kids can play on, though it's off to one side and near some camper vans. Brito's appears to be Venezuelan-Texan food, with a variety of burgers alongside brisket arepas and empanadas. For a weekday, they had a steady stream of customers the whole time I was here, though I didn't have to wait long either. The woman taking orders was so sweet and even ran my card out to me when I accidentally left it in the card reader. I ended up ordering the brisket arepa at the recommendation of a regular customer ahead of me in line. Delicious. They make a good brisket, y'all! The succulent meat fusing with latinx influence of the arepa for a result reminiscent of Valentina's taco truck (RIP). I'm not an arepa expert, but it was delicious, and PACKED with the good stuff. No skimping here. It also comes with a salsa that seemed like an avocado sauce...only thing I would change is for the sauce to be stronger, as it was too subtle for me and I like a kick. Can't wait to come back and try the burgers now that I know they can cook a brisket.
