    The beef empanada was still very good in its own way.

    What do I know about Colombian food?…read more Well, I brought my Colombian foster family from different cities from Colombia, and they couldn't agree more on how good the food was. The outside of the establishment could be a bit nicer, but it was a gem to come here. On the side, it looks like a bar but is family oriented (depending on the time). It opens Tuesday thru Sunday from 3pm to 2am, and it's closed on Monday. My family ordered everything from the menu. Arepa, sancocho, Bandeja paisa, carne asada, chicharron. All the dishes were served in big portions, and the favlor my uncle had the best time ordering beer from Colombia, and the sancocho (stew) was delicious. He said it was the best dish he had in years here in the DMV area if not the only one worth coming back (qlwe drove 50 minutes to come here). Servers were top-notch, checking on us to make sure food and drinks were good

    My fiancé and I traveled to the country of Colombia for vacation. Coming home I was missing their…read morefood and wanted an authentic arepa. I looked up Colombian food in my area and this place popped up. I ordered two queso arepas and one beef /queso and chicken/ queso arepa. Keep in mind I thought they would be a lot smaller thus why I order two a piece. Then I ordered a grilled meats entree for my fiancé and I to split with the arepas. First off the arepas looked like small personal pizzas. I was highly disappointed in that. They were tasty but not what I wanted. My fiancé said the beef was a little salty to him as well. The Grilled meat Entree was not good the Plaintains were sweet and soft. The rice was basic white rice but the meat was like chewing leather but the flavor was decent. The texture just was not there. The club Colombia reminded me of vacation so they were very nostalgic. The restaurant doubles as a bar playing Colombian music. We might entertain the bar for beer but defiantly not for arepas !

    This is a no brainer!!! You gotta stop in if you're anywhere remotely close or in the area!…read more This is tucked away between a major highway and a Costco shopping area. Very simple to get to and quite a decent amount of parking. I went on a Saturday Afternoon and it wasn't too busy at all, but it should be with how amazing the food is! Vibes were pretty dope. Lots of outdoor seating and some music playing. Ordered the Pernil Arepa, Chicken Rice Bowl, and Pulled Pork Rice Bowl. If you're afraid of flavor, this is not for you, because the flavors were amazing! And you can customize your bowls with add one to your liking such as roasted corn, avocado, cheese, plantains and more! Loved it and will definitely make it part of my itinerary whenever I'm in the area.

    When we visited Lancaster, we had to stop by Chellas Arepa Kitchen, and it absolutely lived up to…read morethe hype. The food is a delicious mix of Peruvian and Venezuelan flavors, and you can really taste the freshness and quality in every bite. Their arepas are crispy on the outside, soft inside, and packed with flavorful fillings. Everything felt comforting yet unique at the same time. One thing I really appreciated is that the entire menu is 100% gluten free, but honestly, you wouldn' even notice because the food is just that good. Also, don't be deceived if the food doesn't look super "picture perfect" online or in photos (or at least my photos lol). It may not be the most photogenic food, but it's sooo worth it! I actually ordered almost everything on the menu because I had no idea when I'd be back in Lancaster again . My favorite was the fried rice with chicken and plantains, so flavorful and satisfying! My husband's favorite was the Lomo Saltado Bowl and Pernil Arepa. We also loved the yuca fries, which were perfectly crispy without being overly greasy. The only thing that disappointed me a little was the Esquites. It just didn't stand out and probably wouldn't order it again. Parking is limited and there's outdoor seating only.

    I am so glad that the other bar I was planning on visiting was closed for a private event, because…read moreI probably would not have stumbled upon this wonderful bar/restaurant. The restaurant is located on the second floor of a "random" building, so it might be a bit difficult to find unless you are in the know. Although there were not many folks during my visit, the restaurant gives off a very strong Colombian flare. I originally stopped by to get a drink, but I ended up trying the caserito, which was sort of a combo meal. This meal included a delicious soup, a beer filet, beans, rice, and a small salad. It was quite the meal for only $14 bucks. I do not remember the name of the bean-based soup, but it was out of this world delicious. For $14 bucks, I thought the portions were quite generous. The service was pretty good. Since the bartender/waitress did not speak much English, dining here gave me the perfect opportunity to practice my Spanish. I definitely hope to return in the near future to try more items off of the menu and maaaaybe sing karaoke.

    I finally had a chance to come here. Today, I work up an appetite, so I'm here for a late lunch. I…read morebasically inhale my food. The food was flavorsome. Definitely recommend the chicharrones. Service was on point. My waitress made me feel welcome. She was polite and attentive. The only problem that you may encounter is parking. The restaurant doesn't have parking. You just have to find parking on the side of the street or a small public parking behind the restaurant.
