Ordered catering from here for our office lunch and the team loved it. Everyone was going back for seconds. The empanadas were very flavorful and crispy. The rice was delicious and the salad was super fresh. I can only imagine what it tastes like in the restaurant. Would highly recommend ordering catering and the prices were great as well. read more

The food at La Parilla was was exquisite, the beef empanadas, steak plantains were a great appetizer addition to our platar for two. The planter for 2 will easily be filling for up to three people. I was very satisfied with a warm and friendly service and atmosphere. The waitress was very attentive and service was fast. I will definitely be returning. I Recommend the Maraculla Margarita and Mojito they were delicious. read more

We stopped for dinner after a baseball game near by. We checked to see what was around and we saw it had jibaritos here. We drove four minutes to get here. There's no parking on the street Monday thru Saturday certain hours but there is a huge shopping mall across with tons of parking. We got lucky it was Sunday and we can park outside the business. We went inside and super nice service from everyone that works here. They got a table for six ready and greeted us. We put in our drink order and appetizer we got five empanadas four steak and one chicken. The service was on point and they were very busy. The restaurant was super clean and very trendy. We got two different hot sauces for our empanadas. The empanadas were very good it was like a potato base mixed with spices and steak. I loved the steak one over the chicken but still was good. Then we got the carne asada tostones and they were amazing and loaded with chopped up steak and salsa and aguacate chunks. The presentation looked very delicious and the taste was perfect. Between the family we ordered a steak jibarito, entraña la parrilla, carne asada plate and bandeja paisa. The steak jibarito was a bit different from Puerto Rican spots. This jibarito had mozzarella cheese instead of yellow American cheese and it didn't have mayo ketchup. Overall it was still very delicious with a nice cut of steak with the perfect seasoning. The entraña la parrilla was very delicious it a very nice huge piece of skirt steak cooked to your like. It comes with white rice and plantains. Very juicy and seasoned very nice would recommend to everyone. The bandeja paisa just wow so much on a cutting board. It had a link of Colombian chorizo, chicharrón, over easy eggs on top of white rice with a side of black beans and maduros. Then you choose the cut of meat you have three choices. We went with the owner recommendation of meat and it was so tender with a seasoning that was amazing. The carne asada plate was very good as well it comes with a sirloin cut and a side salad white rice and beans. The owner was very nice to substitute the rice and beans for French fries. The fries were really good here. Overall I will be coming here it was very delicious they do charge a gratitude of 18% for a party of five and up. Also recommend to pay with cash so you're not hit with a 4% charge from the bank. The prices are a bit expensive for a thinner cut of meat but the food was delicious. read more

Decided to go here for happy hour after seeing it on my social media. I am so glad I did. They can accommodate small and larger parties. Our waitress was so sweet and gave great recommendations. There were very few people working for several tables. The passion fruit mojitos were a hit at our table, we could have drank those all night! All of the meat was very soft and tasted fresh. The plantains were also very yummy. Wish the yuca fries & potatoes had more seasoning. read more

Stumbled upon this place purely by accident and absolutely fell in love with it! Was just wanting something "different" on a Sunday and the food looked good so we took a chance. We were welcomed and served with such attention that we almost felt like family. Alicia was so wonderful and took great care to explain everything on the menu and ensure we were happy with our choices. We started out with passion fruit and South American blackberry juice for our beverages. The empanadas were piping hot and crunchy and delicious. (The cheese one was my favorite.) The steaks, plantains, pork belly, beans, rice w/egg, French Fries, sauces, everything was top notch fresh, hot, and tasty. Passion fruit "cheesecake" for desert was decadent. The only minor thing we noticed was we prefer a little more salt on most things but that didn't deter our love for everything we ate. Plenty of food so we have leftovers to take home! read more

There was only 1 waitress working the entire restaurant. She was doing everything from bartending, bringing food, taking orders. She did a great job but waiting to take order took forever for the same reason. Not her fault, but owners fault for not having enough staffing. People will sit down and leave because they got tired of waiting. Overall food was ok read more

Great Service! Alicia is a great host who brings Colombia's kindness a bit closer to you. The food was delicious and well served!

Ordered delivery from here for Valentine's Day. Disclaimer: the 2 separate meals were both for me. Don't judge me. Ordered the entraña steak and the churrasco and chicken combo. I have been to several Colombian places around Chicago and haven't been let down yet, as each one has their little differences but it's hard to not get steak right, and if you get steak wrong you shouldn't be in business. Had empanadas which I enjoyed very much. The fillings weren't too much or too little; the Goldilocks zone of 'nadas. I had 2 chicken and 2 steak. I would order 50 if I could and just eat those for a week (or a single day). The entraña was cooked really well. Very nice flavor and char on it. They say it's their best on the menu and I believe it. It brought potatoes and some small sides that were also good. The thinner parts of the steak at the ends were the best, I think where it starts to get meatier the texture also improved but would order this again. The churrasco and chicken were also a great pick. I think they did good with preparation and even plating it in a to-go container was done with care. I was very impressed with this restaurant. My only complaint is that there was only 1chimichurri sauce included and I was sure if it was for the empanadas or the steak. Even then, the sauce is so good it should definitely be provided for every entre regardless. They should sell it as a condiment on its own. I'd buy it. read more

El servicio es fanáticos y la comida es excelente y lo que más gusta aceptan mi perro que es parte de la familia

Excellent food and service. My favorites are their Arroz con Pollo, Sancocho (soup), Empanadas and Buñuelos! Glad they are close by.

The best Colombian Restaurant I have tried in Chicagoland! My husband and I had empanadas for appetizers, super crispy, fresh and a decent size for the price. Main dish was the Picada that was for two people, but it can easily be eaten by 4. It was super delicious and not dry at all, as a perk you can take the half as your next day lunch LOL . Guanabana (soursop) juice is a must try! I don't even like that fruit but I tried the one my husband had ordered and I regretted having ordered another flavor. To close our dinner, the dessert. This was the best part of the night, THE PASSION FRUIT CAKE with arequipe (Dulce de leche), it was a bomb. Do yourself a favor and visit this place. PS: the service was beyond great, very nice and friendly staff. Definitely coming back again. read more

I order from this place all the time and never fails to deliver its amazing flavor! Really recommend trying the empanadas de pollo as an appetizer! The food in general is delicious! The place has been renovated too ! read more

Ordered empanadas , and some other dishes. One of the empanadas had a long hair in the middle of it. gross!! The beans had absolutely no flavor, the white rice looked and tasted like it was instant rice. Will not be going back. read more

Love this great place for a wide variety of South American favorites. Drinks are great featuring Colombian sodas and fruit shakes. All the appetizers and sides are great include plantains, tostones, yucca, and stewed beans. Very good price and Martha always takes care of me and my party. Highly recommend it. read more

Empanadas absolutely delicious, crunchy and tasty and the hot salsa is not that hot which makes it perfect for the empanadas, I came back to this place after three years and was totally worth it. Also I ordered churrasco with sweet plantains and cassava and was perfect. Service good, all recommended read more

Awesome place. We happened to just try my it and I've always wanted to try something different it's a Latin figured I'd try it. Wonderful food. That cheese empanadas were wonderful along with the chimichurri sauce. We had the jibaritto pollo on plantain and was so tasty and juicy. They open last year and unfortunately covid hit so they've been doing more takeout but we had a chance to eat in the restaurant and I say give this place a shot. It's tasty and delicious food read more
