    Bandeja Tipica

    The food was really flavorful and delicious. The rice and beans was excellent. The meats were well made and large quantities. The service was friendly for the most part. There was one waitress who looked annoyed when we requested a few items extra. The food came very quickly and hot. The tipping was annoying. The suggested rate started at 18%. I was going to give 15% but the food was excellent so I gave them the 18%. The ambience was clean but loud (it is a Latin restaurant full of family and music). Overall very good experience and will return.

    I stopped by here for lunch and the flavors were delicious! I ordered a passion fruit juice that tasted exactly like passionfruit. It was almost like a slushie which I appreciated. It was really refreshing and then I ordered 1/2 roasted chicken with rice and beans. The order also came with Maduros. The plantains were sweet and flavorful. I really considered ordering a side order. I also ordered the beef empanada and loved that it had potato in it with the beef. I would definitely go back. The portions were large. I had enough for lunch, dinner and lunch again. They have lots of seating inside and the service is pretty quick!

    Food was amazing and the drinks were so good and strong! Everything was so delicious! Great service by Carolina, she was very attentive and sweet. She recommended the chorizos, and we loved it! :) Beautiful restaurant, great for girls night or date night. Loved it and will definitely return!

    Food: 2/5 I've dined here a long time ago and I remembered it being delicious. I recently ordered for delivery and found it disappointing. My usual go to order is the Country/Mountain Platter because it has everything. For $20, I was a bit disappointed. I've had better for cheaper. Besides the monetary value (because I'd always pay for great food), the food was sub par and not what it used to be. The portion was huge but it lacked flavor. The rice and beans were bland and sort of watered down. The chicharron was crispy but dry and a bit rubbery. The beef was just ok. Nothing really special about it or any of it. The best part might have been the egg and avocado... Delivery: 4/5 Came within a reasonable time.

    Since the doughnut planet Mardi Gras donut didn't fill me up, I had $7 in my pocket literally and no wallet on me. It became a cheap eats challenge! I went with a friend years ago to a Columbian restaurant in Sunnyside but I could never find it again. All I remember is the mango with milk drink which is delicious Guess what? The restaurant I stopped to look at for empanada is the one my friend took me too! There are 5 2-4 people seating on the left and 5 4-6 people seating on the right. Empanada - beef or chicken for $1.50 Mango with Milk (leche) is $3.75 Estimated cost: $5.25 - success! Actual cost: $5.99 (guessing tax 8.75% but it should be $5.71) Not going crazy for $0.28 when I am able to find cheap food that fills me up and makes my tummy happy. The mango drink didn't have the same strong mango flavor but still good. The empanada is even better than I remember (crispy crust and good filling). Have to try the chicken next time. There was a bit of a wait for the food so it gave me time to yelp. Didn't go to the restroom so can't comment. Metered parking in front and residential street parking on the side. Check the street signs. PS I liked it so much I went back for the tostones con guacamole and passion fruit with milk. The tostones are huge! Need a bit more guacamole since I over applied...so good. The passion fruit with milk is yummy.

    Weekday night, looking to grab a meal with a friend that just moved to Sunnyside. At his request, he wanted to check out the nearest Colombian food joint because it happened to be their day of independence. He shared this place with me, and we agreed to grab dinner there. Really impressed! When I arrived, my friend already had a table for us. I noticed that the place maybe could fit 25 people at most, and there were about 10 people in there at the time. After being seated at the table and getting two nice cold glasses of water, we both took some time to plan out what we wanted to order. After arriving at a decision, we placed our orders and got the plates maybe 15 minutes afterwards. The meats were cooked in the authentic Colombian style, and the rice and beans tasted just like the ones you'd find in a traditional Colombian home. The differently cooked plantains we shared were both tasty in their own way. The portions, for the price points, were very reasonable. We both loved the food, and walked out of the place ready to grab some drinks! Definitely would go back to this place.

    Been here a few times when I come back to New York. I love Colombian food and this is the spot. From soups to traditional dishes

    The food was delicious but service was pretty terrible. It took extremely long to get our drinks, we ordered a Hennycolada (which is on their cocktail menu) and were charged for a pina colada with a shot of Hennessy (totaling over $20 for the drink). Also they charged a fee for paying with credit card but did not tell us in advance.

I was all about that green sauce. Both empanadas were really tasty. I recommend this cute little spot if you're in the mood for a taste of Latin America here in the UES.

They offer a number of baked Colombian pastries, empanadas, breakfast with eggs, coffee, milk-based drinks, and teas. The owner/staff(?) was kind and helpful in answering my questions about ingredients. I saw on their menu online that their horchata was made with oat and rice, which I was excited to see, since most places usually include some type of regular milk. She was able to confirm there was no dairy. I also asked for her suggestion for which empanada to get--chicken or beef--and she suggested both, then with a thoughtful gesture said she'd give me both if I bought one, since they were closing soon. Thanks for the chance to try both! An extra 1/2 star for excellent service! The horchata is on the sweet side, which is as expected since it's a sweet drink to begin with. I'd describe it a creamy, warm embrace with balanced notes of cinnamon. Personally I'd go a little stronger on the cinnamon though that's more of an individual preference. The empanadas had decent flavor, a fair amount of juicy meat filling and I was glad the filling wasn't too salty. This is a tiny store so there are only a couple seats inside, and a few additional seats outside. They've created a lively atmosphere with tropical wallpaper and a woven chandelier that creates a beautiful sprinkle of lighting around the cafe.
