La Pollera Colorada II

I used to love coming to the restaurant but with 4 kids it’s become a challenge so we typically either call for delivery or we order and pick up. Eating in is wayyyy better. Service is better food servings are better too.
If you call you’re put on hold forever! And the person (s) who answer are somewhat rude or they don’t speak English. I’ve had some even laugh at me because of how I pronounce some words (at least we try) if you ask for delivery it’s a mission to get them to take the order and forget receiving it on time — it’s takes close to an hour and if you call they get mad!
If you order out they take forever! And today I had my daughter order some rice and beans. She ordered two but received one and was charged $ 7!!! You had to see the size it was tiny ! I mean it’s better to order a full meal than order the rice and just beans there. They «rectified» the order by giving me the next size up! I just walked out appalled. So beware of you like their food like us it’s best to go and eat there, more bang for your buck for sure and I consider myself a good customer because when we go we go big with large parties and pay well! We like the food it’s good it’s fresh but wish they’d fix their issues which as a customer is big!

I’ve been here for breakfast and dinner. Typical Colombian fare. Great food, great service. For breakfast, plates come with a hot chocolate. We ordered the scrambled eggs with tomato and onions, arepa w cheese, and a natural fruit smoothie instead of hot chocolate. We paid extra, but there’s nothing like a natural fruit smoothie, made with milk, from a Colombian restaurant! That’s what I look forward too! I went with pineapple this time, but they make over 5 or 6 different flavors. The whole meal came to about $ 13. Plate came with rice and beans, and a Spanish sausage on the side (chorizo). Needless to say, I took half my plate to go. Colombian restaurants are known for big bang for your buck! Big dinner plates filled with food at reasonable prices. That’s what I’m talking about!

Food is good but man… calling to place a delivery is a challenge. They usually put you on hold all the sudden and leave you there for a long time, some times not even coming back to the line. Besides that no complains about food quality or price.

the person on the phone doesn’t not speak English and hung up on me after I asked to speak to someone who can take my order. Unable to order food and spent my money somewhere else

Best Colombian food in Queens!
My family and I have been coming here for years!!!
Great portions, wonderful service and the food is amazing!!! Plus I am super picky because ah-​hmmm I am Colombian and this food is like you are back home!
Never leave me!!!

Went to this restaurant today with my family to eat lunch, actually, because all the good restaurants in the neighborhood were full and were not willing to wait in line for a table. We wanted to love this place because it has a really nice decoration, but the food was terrible! My mom and I order the Ajiaco soup which wasn’t that bad but the side dish killed this plate. We could’t eat the stewed chicken since it had a really bad taste, no to mention my husband’s burnt grilled chicken and the tasteless beans. No wonder why this restaurant is always half empty. I would had rather wait on line at a good restaurant than having to leave this place the same as I entered: hungry.

Went here with a couple of friends for breakfast. The food was good quality at table service, unfortunately I asked for a plate to go and look what they gave me a burned arepa. I thought I would give them a chance and call in order for them to give me a apology or a simple courtesy. The supervisor answered I explained the problem and he simply said that he will talk to the kitchen and to do what ever I wanted with Unilocal.Can’t believe what I heard. I’m done with this place.

One whole chicken is enough for at least three meals. Very juicy! The beans are OK, and the side of avocado was very generous. Service could have been slightly more attentive just to keep my water glass full. This is right around the corner from me so I would come back

Half Chicken is $ 4.50. Generous portion. Staff is friendly. Service is fast. Maduros are fresh and sweet! I have only gotten Chicken & side dishes to go. Never been disappointed.

Today i just call for delivery. & they take. Moré then 50 minutes to delivery The Food & o just. Live two blocks away From The Restaurant &. I order. BANDEJA TÍPICA & The meat. Was not cooking. WELL DONE.
SOO I DONT RECOMEND THIS RESTAURANT. & i call back to complaint. Directly. To The MANAGER. &. He told me.
” i going to Send some one to pick –up The meat to put it back to The grill & Send back to you.)… Instead. To Send me a new. & well cooking meat.

Great portion, let’s just say u dont leave hungry. You must try the rotisserie chicken, it is one of the best I’ve had from a spanish restaurant.
The fried pork was delicious!
Service is quick & friendly.

I must say I love but love Colombian food. The only thing that was good was the rice.
They do have good people working there but the food was horrible. Meat came out cold, tuff and had too much fat (40% edible). The sangria was bitter and the shrimps weren’t clean. 2stars in my book. Sorry but never ever again.

delicious large portions for great prices.

This place is amazing, I have been coming here for years now and it is my favorite Colombian food restaurant in all of queens. The prices are reasonable and you definitely get your moneys worth because the plates are huge, well to me they are. I always try something different when I go and it always delicious. I remember once when I was younger, I had braces and couldn’t”t eat rice or fries so I asked for mashed potatoes and the owner came out and told me he’d make them for me. Nicest mad ever, but I haven’t seen him in a long time. But this place is a must for Colombian food lovers!

Have eaten here a couple of times, and have also ordered take out. No complains on the food, well seasoned, huge portions.
Can get a little crowded on Sundays specially at lunch time.

I came here at least two times and I haven’t written a review? Shame on me!
My bf and I come here because it’s close to where I have an apartment… which I still can’t live there… long story.
I had the grilled pork chops last time which they served with maduro, rice and beans.
I had lunch there a couple of days ago and ordered the ribs (Costilla) «lunch» special.
My boyfriend both times had the quarter chicken, dark meat, and it was delicious.
They have an all day lunch menu. Some are daily specials and some are everyday specials. The everyday specials are only $ 6.95. It’s a very satisfying meal for $ 6.95.
My bf and I are pretty happy with this place being near my apartment, if only I can move in already!!!

ok colombian food for a fair price, but a little bit over-​priced compared to other restaurants of the same kind (Pollo Mario). Good for families and dates. pretty good natural juices. delicious hige piece of flan.
strangely the place looks pretty shabby, but the bathroom was one of the nicest i’ve ever seen. I guess i would go here again if I’m looking for a hefty lunch and i’m in the area, although i prefer pollo mario

The food was great and portions are generous. I would have rate it a 4 or 5 star but the lack of service when dining in was very disappointing. My daughters ordered orange juice to complement our breakfast and was informed that they were out of it. I asked for Equal sugar substitute and they did not have it in stock. My girls ordered a fruit shake and tap water but received bottled water instead. Not bad replacement, but I was charged for it. To get the check took a while when flagging them down. Overall great food but they need much improvement to detail.

This place has a twin restaurant in Sunnyside by the same name!
The food is just as good and the portions are just as large.
The dining room feels larger than the sunnyside restaurant.
My dinner:
Arroz Con Pollo, Ensalada, Maduros $ 8.95– Rice with chicken, salad and Plantain. Yummy! Rate: ⁴⁄₅.
Tip: They have daily specials and lunch specials which is available all day.
Their LUNCH SPECIALS are served the entire day!

Best Colombian breakfast ever… well 2^nd to a home made one
