Alizon served me in the best way, a very clean restaurant with the best service and the food brought me closer to my beloved country Colombia.

Great foods and customer service. The restaurant is small, but The only disadvantage is hard to find the parking around the area.

They have to put a little more food for the price they charge. The prices have to appear in the list of the food they sell so that people know the cost of each dish before buying as they do in other restaurants...the price of natural juices is not fair...

The menu is priceless but honestly if you go with the goal of enjoying good Colombian food it's not here! They ordered some empanadas for appetizers that arrived between the food and were too fried, we ordered a churrasco that cost $34.00 average, it arrived burnt, simple, the yucafrita and the arepas were like when they are fried you let it sit for too long and come back and fry it when you remember that they are not You ate them, like dawn, my husband had to remove the yucca, the sweet plantains and the arepas to be able to taste the meat because they served it in piles, they serve for serving, they have no aesthetics to serve a dish, I ordered a three-phase Sancocho and it was like the last thing There was too much meat in the cauldron, too thick, if 3 teaspoons of "sancocho" came out, it was a lot because it was very thick, the drinks were good, the service was average, the waiter wanted to see how much I tipped and he was happy because I put 15% on him. avocado saved the country, however, it was a quarter of a small avocado, but honestly I was very excited to try food from the land and I came out disappointed, it is unfortunate that I have to give a bad opinion of a restaurant in my country, the menu does not It has the prices so be careful!! Because the prices are considerable: 4 empanadas, 3 lemonade, 1 churrasco, a three-phase sancocho and a portion of mini soup $117.00 with tip. It wouldn't have hurt me to pay them if the food wasn't so ugly.....first and last time I go to this place. I hope the owner is not rude with his responses because I read previous comments and he does not accept recommendations nor make changes.

The worst experience! Starting with the food taking more than an hour to come out, we ordered a sancocho and it was cold on top and hot on the bottom, the mojarra came out burnt and I ordered mine to take away since I had been waiting for it to come out for a long time and it didn't come out and it was a tripe, they took it to me to the table without a bag and in a transparent girl and it looked very greasy and too much fat on top, the girl could hardly pick it up with her hands because it was so hot why you could tell they had put it in the microwave, and the rice and the avocado in a piece of aluminum wrapped! The juices were delicious and so was the sancocho but it was too thick but it had a good flavor but as I say the delay was exaggerated and well the prices are not the cheapest!

We got catering with ArePa George for our nonprofit events and it was such a HIT! The kids and adults were in love with the food and kept coming back for more. We literally ran out of the empanadas lolKid-friendliness: n/a

The best empanadas in Chicago!!! We had the chicken and the cheese & guava empanadas! The coconut shrimp was really really enjoyable. An exquisite experience full of flavor. The coconut-chipotle glaze sauce was yummmmy. Perfect to mix to the yellow rice and to dip the tostones! We tried the new dirty chai latte & it definitely hit the spot! Ambiance is chill, great place to catch up with friends, dine solo, lunch-dinner date. It's awsome that they also have a very inclusive menu; with vegan friendly, gluten friendly options.

Server was very kind and knowledgeable. It's a small place but cute for a lower key date night. Food so very delicious! We got a sampler so could try several different things on the menu! I'll definitely be going back.

Empanadas are the best around. They use the yellow corn-like exterior versus flour you see in Humboldt. Carne Asada was juicy & flavorful. Arroz con Pollo was????. Can’t wait to try the rest on the menu??

They dare to charge what they want, the prices are not on the menu, you have to ask and the cost of the food is exaggerated. BAD people take advantage ?

Super seasoned empanadas and the meat tasted average, the rest was good…

We ordered three dishes, all of which were disappointing. The chicken in lime sauce was notably small, and they substituted the lime sauce with an overly sweet sugar sauce. The chicken breast portions were tiny, yet the cost was $21. The fish lacked freshness and had an unpleasant taste. The chicken con pollo seemed old and had an odd texture. Regrettably, we couldn't finish any dish except the small chicken breasts after scraping off the sauce. The Mango Lemonade was a highlight, although it came at a relatively high price. The total bill, including tip, for three dishes and a drink amounted to $92.
