Noche de Colombia is a true gem! I ordered takeout on a freezing cold evening, and the food was absolutely perfect—hot and fresh. Even with takeout, the warm and welcoming service really stood out.

This was my first time visiting a Colombian restaurant, and it was a great experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming. All the dishes in the photos came in generous portions and tasted amazing. The greens in the salad were fresh, and the beef was tender. The prices were also very reasonable, so it felt like a great value for the meal.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely perfect experience! Every dish was incredibly delicious — from the juicy empanadas to the generous and flavorful bandeja paisa, and the tres leches dessert was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Even the water was great! The service was excellent; the staff took their time to explain every dish in detail and made us feel truly welcomed. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy authentic and tasty food in a warm, friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back!

This my go-to when I’m in the area to pick up Akaline water from the Rica water store. It right across the street. The food is always fresh and nicely prepared. The mostly female staff is beautiful and service is always with a smile. The place is spotless, great bar and big screens for watching the Knicks, football or Soccer! Prices are great and they have a variety of options. Meat lovers get ready!

Update! I went back for the porkChops! It was delicious! I added the picture. My friend got had the same dish as before. Hello My Foodies! I was in Englewood and we stopped in here to get a bite. This is a franchise restaurant so I have been to 2 others. The food has always been pretty good so I anticipated a good meal. I was correct. I'll be back next week for the pork Chops! The decor was lovely, the music and the server were great and friendly. They had this small bakery section when you come in. Need to try the Empanadas on my next visit. I love Empanadas! We had the platter with chicharon, rice, steak, egg and beans. Delicious! Pricing was reasonable for the most part, but the dessert pricing was too high for me so I had to skip it. If you are in the area stop by and check them out. They have street parking from what I saw, but we parked across at Shop rite.

We went to celebrate my brother-in-law's birthday. We enjoyed our time there very much. The table was big enough for all of us. The food was delicious, everything was very well cooked and the plates were big enough. The service was great, the waitress was very attentive.
