    Great place to eat! I would consider this place a hidden gem. Authentic and comfort food at its finest

    Lorena's opened for business about a week or two ago and we stopped in to carry out something yesterday, November 9th after a doctors appointment and I'm so glad we did! First off, the folks there that greeted me and took my order were extremely friendly. Being our first time there we only ordered a couple of burritos, one shrimp and one chicken. While I waited a short reasonable time for my order, I sat at one of tables and spoke to one of waitresses while also watching our order being prepared. The inside of the restaurant is pretty basic with a couple of large LED televisions and it was extremely clean. Once I got our burritos home we dug in and WOW! Not only were they substantially larger than any of the burritos from other local restaurants that I've had, they were crazy delicious! The chicken in my burrito, as well as the shrimp in my Mother's burrito I was told, was marinated and grilled just right and all the other ingredients included in it... rice, grilled veggies, pico, guac and cheese were fresh and prepared to perfection! We are now so addicted that we ordered the same burritos plus a taco salad for my Mother that looked so fresh and beautiful, that it was a shame to eat it! During my writing of this review my Mother hadn't eaten the taco salad yet but I guarantee from the looks of it, that it was as good as the burritos we had previously and I'm sure everything else on their menu! Eventually when my Mother can get around better after her recent surgery, we will definitely dine in at Lorena's to try more of their menu but until then we'll continue to order carry out regularly, at least a couple times a month! By the way, I asked and they told me that in the very near future they will be offering delivery through one of the delivery apps like Grubhub, Uber Eats, or DoorDash. which will be a huge plus!

    Definitely one my favorite local restaurants! Their food tastes amazing. Authentic and diverse latino menu. Very good service. I highly recommend this place if you or your family want to try something new or want real latino food.

    Giving this 4 stars only based on the food as I got it to go! But, Definitely check this place…read moreout... ordered myself the empanadas de verde (green plantain) and was surprised that they warmed up beautifully the next morning since I had gotten them to go after a 6 hours road trip to this place. Now I am wishing I would have grabbed more stuff to reheat and have the next day and/or gotten there with time to sit and enjoy the food but life, so here we are. Also ordered their fanesca as it is Holy Week... I will update when I warm that up and have it for lunch or dinner. One point on the fanesca they do not serve it with the little empanadas unfortunately or at least not with a to go order. Update: so I did have half of the fanesca for lunch, popped it in the microwave for 2:30 and it was piping hot and delicious! Had the 12 grains, cod, and came with the typical garnishes that I added to the top as I plated it at home. Fanesca!! Really good and with most of the typical garnishes: parsley, cheese, boiled egg, maduro (fried sweet plantain) and avocado. Just missing the small cheese flour empanadas as a garnish, but still amazing flavor! 10/10 The portion is plenty I am having the rest of it for dinner! Definitely give this place a shot if for nothing else the food as a to go option if you don't have the time or patience to look for parking.

    Health: Every piece of chicken, rice, and veggies was cooked with minimal oil and maximum flavor…read more The plantains were lightly grilled. And overall, the balance of portion control and price efficiency was exemplary to an amazing degree. Price: amazing. You can see from the pictures. This is an unprecedented affordable jewel. Experience: The server was kind, they gave complementary tortillas and salsa that tasted better than most full appetizers from larger restaurants. And the overall atmosphere was both nostalgic and refreshing. Wonderful. Taste: The blend of flavor and balance within the dishes was unusually precise. The meats were seasoned, not salt/sugar ladened. The soup was just the right amount of "solid to soup" ratio (light, but filling). And the texture from everything veggie, protein, and carb was a demonstrative example of "cooked just right". Their steak and shrimp especially were impressive in this regard, giving the resistance to tear into but also the softness not to hurt or inconvenience the teeth. Overall: Literally the best Latin American restaurant I've been to in Baltimore. And one of the best priced places I've ever eaten. Will come here again.

    Was super excited to try this place and drove 30 minutes just to be seated and wait over an hour…read moreand ask multiple times where my food was before being given cold food. I boxed it and left but not before being charged 15% gratuity. Also they take there time cleaning anything. As I sat, I saw multiple tables be left dirty for over 30 minutes even with new customers coming in and not having anywhere to sit. Will NEVER come back and I dont recommend.

    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 !
