Colombian Restaurants near River Grove, IL

“The restaurant is good and cheap, the arepa is delicious and has very good filling, the place is very clean and personally they always serve me very kindly although I have to say, I think the waiter Alan is very tacky haha ​​but in general he is a good restaurant.

Postscript: the only thing the restaurant is missing is having a good Corrientazo.“

“Tasty food and Excellent service. We loved the Sancocho de res and the Sandwich de plátano con carne.“

“I would eat more but stomach has a limit. I have been visiting this place for years and I have tried everyone the menu. Never disappointed. I always go for the churrasco and the carne asada. I recommend highly the chimichurri with extra lime. You'll be in heaven after that.“

“The food is great! This is my husband's and my favorite place to eat at anytime of the day. We love it. The service is also very good. The Chef/Owner comes out to greet and make sure everyone is content. Highly recommend it!“

“Good environment and food“

“First time the food was very flavorful and reasonably priced. Waiter was very helpful in explaining foods and dishes to try.“

“At first I was a little annoyed that the wait time was long as hell lol(over an hour). Me personally I am a pretty big guy, this place is small, like very small. I went to this restaurant on an empty stomach, have not eaten for 21 hours straight so I didn’t enjoy the fact I had to wait almost 2 hours to get some food in me. Now once we were seated, ate arepas with tostones as appetizers, settled in with shots of Colombian liquor, this place is ok. What I couldn’t stand was the fact they were playing live loud ass music for a place themed as a restaurant. The theme for this restaurant is a Spanish club and a full sit down restaurant in one. I couldn’t even hear my party talking because it was too loud. If you like loud dj music with the whole full sit down restaurant experience this place is for you. Me personally when I go to a restaurant with a group, I enjoy the art of companionship and conversation, don’t expect that here because of the loud music. Food was good, not bad. Only reason I am giving this place a high rating is because my family enjoyed it, they had a good time. If my family is happy, I am happy.. We had two people in our group that had birthdays, all the waiters came with musical instruments, sang happy birthday and the dj played the classic happy bday song lol. What made it more funny and special because this place is small, when the waiters came to sing happy bday, the whole restaurant played a long as well and they gave the birthday boys Colombian sombreros lol. They upsell with pictures as well, a lady comes around and takes pictures, they frame them and come by your table to sell them, this was nice because I purchased three frames that were nice pictures. Also as a bachelor let me tell you, they were some honeys in here. I wanted to get my Mac on but because I was with my fam and this place was very small with a mixed singles and family atmosphere I had to resist but indeed there were pretty females up in here. This place is cool if you looking to party and eat. Again me personally, if am going to full set restaurant I like the whole dining experience without loud music other than that I had a good time. All love! No hate but they do have a small ass bathroom lol.“

“the food is good, service was good, wait time was good . but!!!! the fact that the owner has to put a tax break down (city tax, soda tax sales tax ) on the back of the menu, and papers on the wall explaining a 4% credit card charge. This is not a good marketing stratergy, and it is not inviting to the customer. It gives me "the customer" the impression , that the owner is upset about these taxes and fees and is passing down to me as the consumer. Now I completely get it, if I we're an owner too, I would be annoyed with all the taxes imposed on my small business. But you can simply just add that amount to the price of the food without having to give any explanation (like every other restaurant does)for example if a soda cost $2.00 just add the soda tax to the soda and make it $2.25. why do a tax break down for the soda tax and city tax on your menu, then on the receipt, to constantly remind me of the taxes?

they way it upsets you as an owner being taxed for everything , upsets us as a consumers , the feeling is mutual . Also consider using another credit card vendor contract, there are plenty of competitors that would probably give you a better transaction rate. all in all If I were to return it would be for carry out only.“

“La comida estuvo deliciosa. excelente servicio y trato.“

“The prices are affordable. The DJ plays music for all tastes. The waiters are very attentive but the air conditioning does not work. And it is something very little in this time with so much heat, people dancing and it looks like a sauna. It seems that they turn it on and off at times. ?‍?it's the only thing I don't like“
