Las Tablas Colombian Steakhouse

The ambience is low key, classic, with some Latino vibes, with a mixture of art.I really enjoyed the empanadas, cocktails and parrilla. Service was great, friendly staff, constantly checking on us. It is worth a visit!

I recently dined here with my family for my sister's graduation and was mortified by how disappointing our experience was for this special day. From the moment we arrived, the tables were not set and it sadly only became worse from here. We sat down and waiting for them to get us water for over an hour. There was no air conditioning in the back, and the wait staff was clearly unprepared for our large group. The service was horrendously slow with an unacceptable wait time for both the drinks and food. One of the wait staff stepped on my friend's foot, and did not apologize. The plates piled up on everyone's table and no one picked them up. My mom and aunts stepped in to clear our guest's plates when we waited. When our meals finally arrived, I was underwhelmed with the quality of the food. Some of my items were cold, other guest's items were missing, and some guest's items were not even processed all together. We had reserved and been assured by management that they would be able to accommodate this many guests weeks ago. Unfortunately this couldn't be further from the truth. Our guests arrived from all over the country to gather for this special celebration, and we were all left with a bad taste in our mouth. When my mom called the manager to report her concerns, they didn't call her back and they did not seem to be concerned with our negative experience. It's clear the staff is overworked and under managed and I don't blame them for trying their best. I won't be returning and will not recommend this place to anyone. If you're looking for delicious Colombian food with stellar service, explore any other Colombian restaurant in the Chicagoland area. No one should be treated this way, especially on a special occasion like a birthday or graduation like this one.

I haven't been in a long while. Monday night birthday dinnerSo disappointing. Not the original chimimchurro.sangria was good. I see why it's empty . Made a special trip to the city. A waste of my time and moneyChicken dry etc

Los Tablas has been a staple in Lakeview for decades. I've been coming here since they had a small location across the street. They expanded the dining area and edit a larger bar area right by the host when you enterThe service is familiar and has been consistent since they're opening. They are inviting and recommend the best items on the menu. Colombian steak replicates many of the Latin and southern American flavors with their well spiced and predominantly well done meats. I order it the combination plate which consisted of Colombian sausage, pork belly, plantain, and steak. All delicious and tasty food.

I've been coming here for years. Love the dim light, romantic ambiance. The quality of the food has always been consistently great. We ordered our usual sampler of empanadas, and skirt steak combo meal to share. So good! The dining space fills up quick and you have to be patient as there's normally only 2-3 wait staff. But they are friendly and attentive. Give it a try, you won't regret it.

Great food , great ambience,good service If you're a Colombian food lover this is a great spot, their prices I believe are reasonable for the quality of food

My friend and I were shocked when what we ordered was served. We've never tried Colombian cuisine, so the waiter suggested that we try their platter special to get a bit of everything, and it really was a bit of EVERYTHING.Here's what we ordered:Picada Mar y Tierra: A mix of meats, plantains, arepa, and potatoes, all so delicious and flavorful. This menu item also comes with various dipping sauces. Loved it!Next time, I'm going to order a sweet drink to balance out the richness of the meats. :)l

I used to really like coming here. The food just didn't impress as it used to. Some of the food was cold, cuts of meat were not as tender as I remember. Plantain was so soggy in oil, yuca was not crispy. Server was nice and attentive.Sat outside, still felt attended to. Limited street parking.

You do get a lot of food for what you are paying for, so you will never leave hungry. The food is good but nothing that made me go WOW. I also don't understand why there aren't more people that dine here. I've gone twice now and each time there is maybe one or two other tables occupied int he entire establishment. I wish they had a more lively atmosphere and focused more on the in house dinning rather than the deliveries.

I have not been to a Colombian restaurant for a while so thought we should try this. Ordered chicken and beef empanadas which I forgot take photo of them. We tried the combos for two people that had steaks, pork ribs, chicken, yucca, bananas and arepas. If you don't eat that much this will be too much we had left over and took it home. They all had the same flavor and it is $50 for this order. The pina colada was too sweet but we didn't say anything to the bartender because they seemed busy.The place has indoor and outdoor seating. There is a bar seating inside as well. I am so impressed with their restroom! clean and unique decor.
