    Tres Leches and Hot Chocolate Colombiano - Small
    Dyamond D.

    I came here on a whim after being close by and being recommending their tres leches cake. I ordered and hot chocolate and tres leches cake. While the hot chocolate was extremely delicious (reminds me of Jamaican chocolate tea), I wasn't in love with the tres leches cake. This wasn't due to it tasting bad but more up to personal preference. Their cake is on the sweeter side as the sponge cake is sweet, the milk is sweet, and there's a caramel/dulce de lèche filling in between the two sponge cake pieces. It also had a whipped topping with cinnamon and a cherry on top. While when I first ate it, I wasn't a fan, it was more appealing when I ate the rest the next day. That could partially be to my expectation for the cake being adjusted, as well as more time for the cake to soak up the milk it was sitting in. Despite that, I'd be willing to come back and try it again as this would likely be a treat I would need to crave to enjoy just because it's super sweet for my taste. However, I can definitely see why others love it. They also have indoor seating and it's more informal but they do have wait staff to serve you. As far as service, they never checked up on me. When it was time to pay the bill I wasn't even sure if I was paying at the table or register since no one came to me after I got my dessert and I was served in to-go containers. (That part confused me since other customers had their food on regular plates but I gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed that was due to what I had ordered.) For the 2-3 hours I was there hanging out, there were people constantly in and out to buy/eat food. Their food smelled really good and I'd be willing to come back to try their other selections.

    The first time I visited this Punto Rojo, I ended up walking out with my party. We were waiting to be served but we were ignored. This was three years ago. I decided to try them again. The service this time was very satisfactory. The restaurant itself is a smaller than the Glen Cove location but there are tables for dine in services. It seemed to be clean both times when I visited. There is plenty of parking in the lot, just be careful pulling in and out of the lot. I ended up ordering chicken empanadas, Hawaiian empanadas, chicharron, guacamole, and plantains. Yes, I know Hawaiian empanadas are not authentic but my brain wanted it. I've ordered from the Glen Cove Punto Rojo location many times in the past. Unfortunately, I think I prefer them over the Hicksville location. The food wasn't as flavorful and needed more seasonings. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if I'll be back in this location. If I am, I'll be sure to try the pastries and their more traditional entrees and update this review.

    Saturday night at Punto Rojos is always busy! For my Colombian food fox this is my go to place Tonight their ice cold Cholada topped with fruit to go - delicious as usual.. Have tried others that do not compare!!

    This is the cake

    Ordené un pastel para el cumpleaños de mi niño, y estoy muy molesta porque no me dieron lo que yo ordené y la respuesta del hijo del dueño fue que si lo querían, sino que no lo no lo llevara, ese fue su respuesta. Él no sirve para para un negocio él tenía que haber arreglado el problema, ese pastel no se parece nada lo que yo ordené nada y la verdad nunca mas ordenpasteles ahí y el pastel estaba bien seco de tres leches

    This is the receipt that shows the 3% surcharge for credit card usage

    No matter how many times I tell them and even show them the law this establishment continues to charge a surcharge for a credit card charge. They are not advertising the prices per item if you use a credit card which make a this act illegal. Anyone who has purchased product from here should ask the same question. The are defiant

    Came here for a quick lunch during my break. After moving to Long Island it is quite difficult to find a Spanish restaurant. I found this restaurant on google. When I arrived, I was immediately greeted. There are some people behind the counter that speak English but they speak mostly Spanish. I do speak Spanish, but it was good to know that there are other people that can speak English, because I wanted to share this restaurant with my colleagues at work and they do not speak Spanish. Everyone was friendly, kind, and helpful. I ordered the special of the day which was caldo de res (beef soup)- there is an option to order it "Complete" which comes with rice topped with beef stew, macaroni salad, and plantain. I got a Colombiana soda to go with it and it was perfect!!! it was nice, clean, bright inside and the bakery is to die for. I didn't get to take pictures of the empanadas and pan de queso I bought, but it's a MUST have. I would love to try their cakes next time, it looked so good!! they have a whole pastry/bread section. Definitely recommend this place

    Our office used to order from Punto Rojo years ago, but since I stopped working there, no yummy food for me. I was in the area today, so I decided to try it again. So good! I got the Mini Bandeja, and it was just the right amount of food for me. The empanadas looked so good that I got 2 of them. If you are in the area, please check them out. It's worth the visit. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. They have seating, but I got my order to go.

The restaurant was busy (always a good sign!), but we were seated quickly and treated with such kindness and efficiency.

I had the skirt steak with rice, beans, and salad--10/10, full of flavor and cooked perfectly. My friend had the fish and loved it just as much. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care. Between the amazing food and the outstanding service, this place is a gem. Huge thank you to Stephan and the entire team for making us feel so welcomed--we'll definitely be back!

It's an extremely friendly establishment. I highly recommend it to anyone.

We stopped by on a Monday not realizing they were closed, and as we were walking in, the manager Pablo kindly let us know. But instead of just turning us away, he went above and beyond in a way you truly don't see often anymore. He took the time to recommend another nearby restaurant, gave us keychains, and then--on our way out--stopped us to ask our names and told us he would take care of our entire bill at the next place. That level of generosity and kindness completely blew us away. You can tell right away that this is a place that truly cares about people, not just business. Because of Pablo, we will absolutely be coming back to La Finca on a day they're open--and we're actually looking forward to it even more now. If this is how they treat people when they're closed, I can only imagine how amazing the experience is when they're open. Highly recommend supporting a business like this. Hospitality like that deserves all the success in the world.

I ordered one of their signature arepas: The Joint and it was great. It was juicy, packed with a good amount of food and was a nice combination of flavors. As a plantain enthusiast this was the perfect arepa for me. 1 arepa would be filling for the average person. My boyfriend ordered the El Poco Loco for us to split which I wasn't too crazy about - it reminded me of a crispy chicken sandwich and I didn't care for the sauce on this. I didn't bother to eat this after the first bite. Additionally I got to try the tres leches and this was better than I expected. I'm always hesitant to try tres leches because there are so many ways to prepare it. This way was more classic and simple with just the cake and the 3 milks at the bottom. It came served in a square dessert cup. It felt a little small for the price but the taste was worth it. My only constructive feedback for the cake is that the cake would be even better if it was a little less dry as far as texture but that can be hard to balance as you don't want the cake to become too wet over time due to it soaking in the milk. I can't wait to revisit: I'll be getting the tres leches again and would love to try the El Guey.
