Being Colombian and living in Cali all my life. I like to try different places to eat. I hear about this place and drive 45 minutes to try the food. Sorry the service was bad. The guy that took our order wasn't attentive he kept going outside to have conversations with some people. They ran out of things. The food was very salty. The chicharrón had a bad taste. Not once they came to ask us if we needed something. The food quality was not worth the price. I really hope that this place gets better with time or else it will not last.

DON'T SAY ALL THE BAD REVIEWS DID NOT WARN YOU! Being that I am Colombian and drive 1 hr away to Donde Andelas for my birthday every year. This year I was so excited when I found out that there was a Colombian restaurant near me! I had high hopes, even after reading all the bad reviews. You can see reviews on yelp and Google. But unfortunately EVERY SINGLE BAD REVIEW WAS SPOT ON. From the one guy who is the hostess/ waiter being outside with friends and not caring your standing there waiting to be seated, to not getting your drinks, or silver wear. No English at all. I do speak Spanish but the rest of my family does not. No description at all of what comes with your plate, or pics of food on menu. They did take credit card and debit, BUT...my food was COLD! Not one plate but 2 of them. They had no empanadas. But the thing to me is the food. I was willing to pay $25 for a Carne Asada plate, that got brought out cold. In Fontana , you can pretty much go anywhere and get a delicious Carne Asade plate at any of delicious Mexican Restaurants around or even the Salvadorian restaurants. So, sorry not sorry not sorry for the negative review. But I literally feel like I tossed $100 down the drain. It wasn't just the meat. The beans, the pork inside the beans, the rice. It was straight up out of a pan in the fridge that was most likely made sometime earlier (that week) maybe even...? But it was straight pre cooked food from fridge that was placed into microwave. And like when you put to much food on your plate to reheat and it doesn't warm all the way through, thats exactly it. Nothing was fresh, nothing was hot. No aroma of food cooking, no sound of pots or anything going on in back. It was just 100% Shitty all the way around. Im so sad and disappointed. I dont know how they are still in business being that they obviously don't know the restaurant business, treat the customers like they don't want them around, but also because of food compliance laws. They are bound to shut down soon. SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY. There is Pepes Pollo in West Covina, Donde Andelas which to me is by far the best that is located in Orange, and then their is a lady who sells from home, that is local and delicious.

So this is the first time we go to this restaurant and here’s what happened; first, the food took a long time to be taken to our table, even though there wasn’t that many people. Second, the waiter was investing, his time hanging out with his friends outside drinking alcohol in public, which is illegal and there were seven grown adult adults, partaking in drinking beer. Ask yourself how does that reflect on a business especially a restaurant to have a ton of people all men drinking getting drunk in public in front of the restaurant third this place does not allow ATM debit cards or credit cards. Food was not the best. All of it, from the bandeja paisa to the other side dishes. Again, the waiter, instead of getting our sodas asking if we were okay was outside drinking(we saw him)beers outside with all his buddies. Then, when it came to pay the bill, guess what, only cash & Zelle. They don’t accept Apple-pay which is how we always pay. They ended up not charging us the $57 bill. We also had to ask the lady to lower the tv as it was really loud. Oh one last…these men kept going to my car to idk look at it. Made us feel uneasy. Posted a photo of the car as food pics aren’t the best in this place.

The food is cold and they don't serve in order of arrival, the owners eat first, the customer has to wait and they should have a glass of water so there would be the bag when they give you the food, they don't get your finger wet with their salt, the rest is clean. and very hot there.
I do not recommend this place, avoid having a bad time, very bad service and not to mention the food, and very expensive!!!

This is one of the worst Colombian restaurants I have ever visited, both in terms of food quality and customer service. Additionally, I witnessed underage individuals consuming alcoholic beverages. Very expensive too!! I do not recommend this establishment.

If I could give them 0 stars I would. Food was all burned, there were under age people drinking. They should have the city check on them because I’m pretty sure they don’t have a license to sell alcohol and they were doing it anyways.
