There's plenty of different options such as steak and seafood to choose from here, mostly in a grilled or fried preparation. Overall, worth a visit if you're looking for delicious Columbian food in the area. Be prepared to enjoy tender and flavorful meats served in generous portions.

My husband and I went to El Asadero Colombiano with some friends for dinner on a Thursday night…read more The restaurant had pretty good traffic for being early in the evening. The restaurant was painted and decorated with the colors of the Colombian flag. My husband ordered the chicken and rice while I had the breaded shrimp. My plate was 90% rice and French fries and salad. I couldn't tell the difference between this shrimp and what I would find in the freezer section of my grocery store. They charged $21 for this dish!!! My husband's chicken was not flavored very well. I cannot recommend El Asadero Colombiano.

It was good but with the language barrier, I didn't fight it and just kept it. I had the passion fruit margarita. It tasted fresh and very delicious. I also ordered the arepitas pues-beef. On the picture it was served with a sauce; it didn't come with it. I think it would be better with a sauce because the meat was a bit dry. The main dish that brought me here was the steak sandwich. It's not on the menu but they did make it for me. It was perfect! The plantain didn't fall apart when I bit into it. The balance of flavors was on point. I wish I could finish it!

The whole space is covered in comic book art, It honestly felt like stepping into a comic store. You can't help but look around the whole time. I ordered the Choriperro, which I thought was just gonna be a Colombian-style hot dog, but it turned out to be a monster. The sausage had that nice grilled flavor, super juicy and then it was just piled with stuff, crispy fries, melted cheese, a mix of creamy sauces, and even pineapple. Every bite was amazing, salty, creamy, a little sweet, a little spicy. It definitely was a mess, but it was worth it. We didn't wait long, maybe 5 minutes after ordering, and the girl at the counter was friendly. The place was small but didn't feel cramped. If you're curious about Colombian street food, definitely try it out. And get the Choriperro. It's messy, delicious, and worth it.

It had pork belly, columbian sausage, rice, beans, a fried egg, avocado, and a fried plantain . Gigantic portions. We also ordered empanadas and they were the star of the show.

Grilled strips of chicken and steak, an actual salad with what I think was Romain lettuce several slices of tomato and avocado and red onion, and some chunks of a light homemade cheese that kind of looks like feta, but was less salty and very creamy. It was a really really nice lunch. I also had a craving for some black beans had a side of that and was excellent. They have a house made creamy garlic sauce that I put on everything and some house made hot sauce that I used a little of. It was very good too.

The service was quick and attentive, and although the place was busy we didn't have to wait on a Friday night. We were fairly unfamiliar with the menu options but came with a big appetite, our waiter recommended the empanadas for an appetizer and they were great! Perfectly fried and super crispy, and you could tell the oil they were using was clean which is always a great sign for the rest of the experience for me. The decorations were SUPER cool. They went over the top for the holidays. Even if it's almost February... Both my lady and I ordered margaritas, and they were the best we've had since we moved down. They were STRONG, but not overly so. 1 was enough, 2nd was for fun. As we were leaving the table next to us ordered a pour of tequila and they did it tableside. I had the Colombian flank steak plate. While I can say I came with a big appetite and I can eat, this was about the first time I can say I left a restaurant still hungry. I knew what I was getting into since the menu did state the size of the steak, and I guess it's not a huge minus I left wanting more! The margaritas probably played a part too. The plate was phenomenal. I ordered the steak medium rare, but it was a little on the rare side which I don't mind at all. Everything molded perfectly and no flavor overpowered the other. One of the tastiest meals I've had in a long time. The only thing holding back this place from a 5 is the portions and prices. $4 for two shrimp seemed insane, and adding options to the margaritas makes each one almost $16. It certainly doesn't deserve the low 3 star rating on this app. Can't wait to come back!
