This is one of a better Columbia Restaurant, it looks like a Diner on the outside and inside. The menu has chicken, meats, pork, and seafood. We ordered the mountain platter which can come with steak or ground beef, the better is with ground beef. Comes with rice and plantains, egg, rice cake, and fried pork belly Their hot sauce goes well with a lots of different dishes. I ordered a Shrimp with garlic cream sauce, It comes with rice and French fried, it is so good. Give it 4.5 stars

Thiss was a wonderful dining experience. First time here on recommendation of a friend. The place seemed like it was once a small diner but it's now offering fine Colombian cuisine. Seating was comfortable and the service staff was knowledgeable and attentive. I had mixed seafood in lobster sauce and it was heavenly. My daughter had shrimp in creamy garlic sauce and my wife has a steak smothered in onions. Everything came with a salad to start & sides of rice and red beans or rice and papas fritas. We had a side of tostones and extra bean. Everyone took home some of their dinner. Tres leches cake was shared at the end of our meal. We will definitely go back and I recommend this place if you want excellent authentic Colombian food

My family have been coming here for years One of the best Colombian spots on long island If pretty sure it's Columbian If your columbian I love you

My family and I have been here a couple of times and it's always been a great experience! It's definitely a popular spot as it can get busy at times but worth the wait!! The food is fantastic and flavorful, I've gotten something different every time and it never disappoints. I really enjoyed the mountain platter. The paella is also very yummy and their mango drink is really refreshing too! I like the set up of the spot and it's unique and cool. It might be hard to bring a super large party here but it's definitely a spot to try out and parking is super easy!

The food was amazing. I ordered Mountain platter and it was plenty for one person. The pork was amazing but the skin was a bit too hard to chew. I wish it's crispier. The beans were fabulous. The waiter was really enthusiastic and gave great recommendations. Definitely a spot you should check out if you are close.

Today I decided to eat in, I was craving the skirt steak, R&B and tostones. I ordered the steak med and it came out perfect. The tostones just the way I like them , nice and thin, and very fresh. The place was not busy when I arrived, but as I was leaving it was getting the dinner crowd. Service was great, and i enjoyed my meal to the max.

It's date night but we've got a plus .5 with us. Not gonna stop me from giving you my honesty about this diner. It's crazy packed in here but service is moving very fast. Delicious hot plates sizzling left and right if you. The menu looks huge, but don't be alarmed it's the same menu just in both English and Spanish side by side. The ambiance was very diner style but a high performing one. The owner/manager was coming around like clock work. Service was outstanding. Food quality was stellar, the waiter quickly explained the menu. We opted for steaks that came with a side salad, rice and beans, and maduros. Steaks arrived on a sizzling cast iron plates and they were smelling phenomenal. There were juices running down my side right after the first bite. Perfectly seasoned and even better with their home made Chimichurri. Although I did feel a bit rushed to leave, I was still pretty impressed with the food quality and service. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu. PS - the tres leches was fantastic, not as good as the Mofongo place, but definitely very good decision for dessert. Happy yelping and enjoy this recommendation.
