★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Rodrigo Hernandez · Sep 2023

Costumer service is awful. There is no fiscal or digital menu. The server just tells you your options really quick and gets mad if you ask her to repeat herself. You do not know the price of what you ordered until you finish eating. They only accept Cash or ZELL. No debit or credit cards. What you see in the pictures was $15. The soup is really greasy, not good. The rice is bland and hard. Restrooms are on the back of the restaurant by the parking lot and they are dirty. I will not go back to this restaurant!!! I do not recommend this place at all!!

Food tastes like being in colombia. What a blessing to have La Esquina Colombiana around.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Adhrianna G · Sep 2024

I'm never coming back to this place again! Unfortunately, my latest visit was a huge letdown. In the past, I loved their arepas, which were always grilled to perfection and super fresh. But now, they're just serving raw, microwaved arepas that are way too oily and salty. When I arrived at 6:30 pm, the place was practically empty, with only two tables occupied and the rest looking dirty and neglected. The service was also bad our server seemed irritated and didn't bother to hide it. To top it all off, we were the only customers for the entire duration of our visit. All in all, I'm extremely disappointed and would not recommend this place to anyone.

Small and home-owned. Do not recommend the arepas. But they have the best colombian empanadas around, and fantastic bandejas. They only speak Spanish and accept cash/Zelle, so be aware before you go. Really nice to sit on one of their benches outdoors and eat on the street, great atmosphere.
