Aracely's Sazón Colombian Restaurant

Fantastic Colombian cuisine in a really cute atmosphere. They take their time making the food fresh, and they are always friendly. I recommend the empanadas and the chicharrones!

Me and a couple of my coworkers came here for lunch. Wasn't too busy, about 6 tables being served, 2 servers doing their thing. Me and my coworker ordered the bandeja paisa, and the other order some appetizers for his meal. I will speak for my meal, bandeja paisa.This was at best a 3 star meal, if it was cooked properly. Rice is regular, beans were not memorable, the sausage/ chorizo wasn't great, grill steak was supposed to be medium...it was well done, the pork was actually good....somewhat moist and crunchy, the round biscuit thing, forgot the name appears to be something from a frozen IQF product. All in all, food was meh.The service we were provided was pretty bad. First of all, the restaurant wasn't packed so we thought service would be great since we saw so many great reviews. First up, our server didn't want to speak English to us, she only spoke to our Spanish speaking friend. Second, service was slow she kept checking on other tables and taking their order, mind you there are only 4 other tables in the room with 2 servers. Third, the food took sometime to get to us. The bandeja paisa took long to cook and get to us. Fourth, when we were done with our meal, she ignored us. The last straw was, she charged us gratuity for a party of 3 which was caught by another server who called her out on it. She asked us why we were getting charged gratuity, we didn't even know. Long story short, we're not coming back. If this is the definition of Colombian food, never gonna eat this again. Somebody suggest to me a better Colombian restaurant

We love this hidden gem in Las Vegas. If you want authentic, home-cooked food, please check out this restaurant. Here is our full review of Aracely's Colombian Restaurant, https://youtu.be/Cgj8TdQG-hU?si=8k7WOEWGKUUL3qVE

Amazing food with a cozy family style feel. The people I went with are generally not fans of Latin food between the lactose intolerance and the aversion to spice, so I already knew this must be good if they were raving so hard about it. The beef rib soup was deliciously brothy, perfectly seasoned, light yet satisfying, and full of tender chunks meat. Chicharrones were ok- tasty but sometimes tough to chew. Highly recommend trying the pandebono and bunuelos at least once. I was looking at the pastry counter trying to figure out what things were, and owner gave me one to try. A fresh tray of bunuelos came out just as we were wrapping up, so of course a half dozen had to come with us for later! I also loved the arepa con queso. There were a few arepa options on the menu, and the waitress recommended that one because I said I like a little sweetness. This arepa was soft, warm, slightly sweet, and super cheesy. Absolutely need to get this again. Do yourself a favor and try this place out!

This was the closest thing to having food from back home. The service was great. Very friendly wait staff. I ordered items that I wanted my in laws and husband wanted to try. Arepas con queso, Empanada paisa, Sancocho de Res, Arroz con Pollo and Bandeja Paisa. Omg. The arepas was so good. Empanadas was delicious. The Sancocho was not real Salty. Just right according to my sister in law. The arroz con pollo and the Bandeja Paisa was yummy. I also ordered Jugo de Guayaba. Delicious. I would definitely come back next time I am visiting.

If you know me, you know I rarely give low reviews because I never want to hurt any small business however, as a fellow Colombian in Las Vegas I felt I needed to make this. This is just my opinion(: This is my 2nd time at Aracely's. I hadn't come back in well over 6 years because my first visit wasn't the best but due to a shortage in Colombian restaurants I decided to give it another try. Let's start with the highs. It was Colombias Independence Day, so they did have live music going which was nice. The ambience was very welcoming as well! Our waitress as very friendly and checked up on us regularly. Our food also didn't take long. We spent $90 on two dishes, 4 empanadas, 2 sodas, 2 juices and 2 breads. It seemed a big high for the quality of the food. Personally my favorite things were the Maracuya juice and the almohabana bread. Everything else lacked a lot of flavor and more Colombian sazón. They also don't have many options on the menu. I realize it can be hard to replicate food from another country here in the US but if I had to recommend this place to someone who has never had Colombian food it wouldn't be my first pick. The bakery side did seem to have some really beautiful desserts but we did not try them.

This place was outstanding! All the food was so fresh and delicious and our service was phenomenal. We were searching for Colombian food, and I am glad we chose this one! It is a little pricey, but definitely worth it.

Authentic Colombian food !!! Service great ! Ambience very welcoming! Highly recommend

The restaurant is very welcoming. The service was great. The ladies who helped us were very friendly from start to finish. My husband and I shared the chicharron con Arepa appetizer. It's obviously greasy but worth the calories, lol. We both got the calentado de la casa, which has two different meats, carne asada and colombian Chorizo. Everything was so delicious we will definitely return for their caldo de Costilla.

The food is just meh...I recently visited this location after getting a certificate on restaurant.com and upon the check arriving the waitresses advised us they don't take coupons. I would not have come without the coupon. But if the establishment doesn't like any coupons they should sever the relationship with the company the driving up there business. I will not be returning.
