I parked around back (for free!). I entered in the back. I ordered bandeja paisa with flan. I don't speak Spanish, so the ladies were gracious with me. It rung up to about $26. Perfecto! I asked for the egg to be fried all the way through and they did it perfectly. I got it to go and it even warmed up nicely. So much food. I was able to split it up in 3 meals. So happy to know this is close by!

From the moment you walk in, they make you feel welcomed, appreciated, and genuinely cared for. Rodrigo brings unmatched energy and attention to detail -- every dish arrives perfectly, and he checks in with the kind of professionalism that makes the experience feel premium. Manuela adds warmth, kindness, and a natural hospitality that makes you feel like family. The food is incredible, but it's Rodrigo and Manuela who make every visit unforgettable. Their service is fast, friendly, and consistently excellent. This team is a major reason this restaurant stands out as one of the best Colombian dining experiences around.

After looking around at the many restaurants/food stands at the farmers market, we circled back and chose this spot due to their food options that looked great on the photos displayed. I ordered the Loko Plantain. I was really hoping it came out looking like it's photo and would taste just as good as it looked. I was pleasantly surprised when it came out looking exactly like the photo and tasted amazing! I really enjoyed it. I also ordered a couple of the chicken empanadas and they were so good!! The food is freshly made and you can taste that. They have a nice little seating area for customers so we sat & ate there. I would recommend anyone stopping by to taste their food if visiting the farmers market on a Saturday or Sunday.

Tamales La Tamalera isn't just a name--it's a whole vibe. From the first bite of their authentic Colombian tamal (yes, the kind wrapped in banana leaf with that rich, comforting masa and juicy meat) to the cool, citrusy ceviche topped with crispy plantain strips... every dish screams flavor and care. And don't even get me started on the michelada. Rimmed with tajín, packed with flavor, and served ice cold--it's everything you want when you're soaking in the good times. The best part? The guy running the show makes you feel like family. Not just friendly--family. Like you pulled up to a backyard cookout and everyone's happy you're there. Pro tip: Come hungry. Stay longer. Order everything.

The good: Great…read moresound system. Good music. Attractive Colombian bartenders. The bad: The service, as noted by other reviewers, is simply terrible. The prices keep creeping up, and while the place used to be reasonably affordable, it is close to becoming expensive. If you ask for water, they will now force you to spend $4 for little bottles of cheap water. It's really a 2 star review, but it gets 3 here because, at this moment, it's one of the few remaining happening places downtown. This could change if the place continues like this.

I don't want this and she's like well too bad you ordered it you had there's nothing I can do and then when you receive your check and ask why the difference in price they respond well that's just how much we charge so when you asked to speak to management, they say oh your server should've told you we'll just take it from their pay and then they tell the server in front of you you're gonna have to pay for this. It's a really awkward situation and not fair. Not to mention that our waitress was coughing and sneezing with a runny nose, her wiping her nose and then grabbing the pen to hand it to me to sign the receipt. It's just very unsanitary and the management is there watching it and doesn't say anything either so maybe it's me We definitely won't be coming back here again.

This NEW Colombian restaurant in Hollywood has only been open for 6 months. When you enter it makes…read moreyou feel like you are back in Colombia, very unique decor it makes the ambient very welcoming. The music playing was like been in a Colombian celebration. They offered a lunch special, picadera, frijoles, traditional dishes, chicharron, asopado, desserts, fresh juices and Colombian sodas. I ordered the "Bandeja Paisa", a very traditional dish that comes with beef, sausage, chicharron, rice, beans, avocado, a fried egg, an arepa and plantains. This dish was $20,99, had a very nice presentation, it was served hot, everything tasted fresh, the sausage had a very savory taste, the chicharron was crunchy and excellent, all the other items on my dish were great as well but the meat was a little salty. I ordered the manzana soda and that was very refreshing. I will definitely return for the service and to try the soups aKa asopados. The lady who took care of me was attentive and very hospitable!! .

I ordered a maracuyá smoothie, and after drinking almost the entire thing, I noticed there was a HUGE cockroach inside my cup. When my mom went to show the owner the cockroach, instead of being concerned or apologizing, he questioned how it got there and actually suggested that we may have put it in the cup ourselves. I was absolutely disgusted and shocked by the entire situation. We were so grossed out afterward that we ended up throwing away ALL the food we had purchased from the other vendors because we no longer felt comfortable eating anything from the market. Please stay away from this place. Finding a huge cockroach in a drink is bad enough, but the way the owner handled the situation made it even worse. I would never want anyone else, especially a child, to have this experience.
