Food was good. Service was not so great but friendly a couple things I did not like was their menus have no description of the food served and you must either pay cash or Zelle no credit cards accepted, it's fine but it would be nice to have known that at the beginning. I will say it's cute and clean overall.Now their coffee 10/10 delicious ask for sugar if you like it sweet.The calentao paisa 8.5/10 is good and I appreciate the portion, can easily feed two people. Calentao montañero 7/10 was ok same as the paisa just mixed together again feed up to two people.Arepas con queso was good 8/10

Passing by this restaurant made me curious of Colombian cuisine!So today 1/27 /2025 we decided to give it a try! Read some of Yelp reviews !!Parking lot was empty but open signs were lit !Very small dine in area with 4 seater tablA floral theme with silk flowers were randomly arranged on wall to wall paneling of green artificial decorative boxwood plant mats!!!Greeted by a wonderful Spanish speaking server. After browsing the menu decided on theChuleta Valluna ..... 2 pcs of fried Breaded pork chops platter ( bland ,overcooked and tough) served with rice , potato salad and 2 pcs plantain.Arroz Con Pollo was a serving of rice with hardly pieces of shredded chicken in it , hot dog pieces, mixed vegetables with a side of French Fries?????? Carbs with carbs ???????One of the review mentioned pricey and I believed it is too Pricey indeed!!!

Came in for late lunch with sweetheart. Place was empty when we got in. She ordered breaded pork cutlets and arroz con pollo for myself. I wanted caldo de pata originally on the list of anout 5 soups but lady serving us said they have only the caldo de pescado. Menu prices on the high side compared to others but we want to try and see how good the food are. Ambiance not comfortable because of language barrier. Communication not easy and simple. Food not bad but not great either flavor wise (served warm & or hot). Pork cutlets on the dry side Portions though are generous. Coming back is a "maybe".

Thisbis a three star review ONLY because they don't speak any English whatsoever. My son and grandson (who aren't bi-lingual) arrived before me. My extrovert grandson seemed uncomfortable l when I arrived and when I asked him why he said he didn't feel welcomed. After I spoke to the young man, the attitude changed towards the boys. I ordered the breaded pork chop and my son ordered the arros con Pollo. The portions are large enough that we were able to share and all left full. They offer a variety of Colombian beverages, which were just ok.Although the food was good, I feel it was over priced. I likely won't go back because of the language barrier (I'm more of a spanglish speaker).

I am a non-Spanish-speaking American. I enjoy learning about different cultures, especially through food. Living in Fontana, there are Mexican restaurants on every other corner. When I stumbled across this restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised. The parking lot was packed, with a very large and loud speaker outside, blasting music. I thought there was a party, lol. My daughter and I walked in and the place was completely empty. No biggie, we sat down and waited. And waited. And waited. I finally had to ask the young man at the counter for menus. He acted like it was an inconvenience to serve us. I can't stand people who pull the race card every opportunity they can, so I reserved judgment. Looking at the menu, they seemed to have a good variety of food, but the menu was in Spanish and it was hard to figure out what was what. I pointed at the grilled chicken dish asking if it came with rice and beans. He quickly answered, "No English." On the surface, I didn't really have a problem with it, but he made no attempt to try to communicate past that. It became abundantly clear communication was going to be our responsibility. My daughter speaks very little Spanish and struggled to translate. He seemed to cooperate with her, but had no desire to speak to me any further. I have a huge issue with that. I won't go into unnecessary talk about being in America and not speaking English, my mother was an immigrant from Italy. English became her second language. What I am concerned about is running a business and not caring about communicating with customers. I honestly wanted to walk out at that point. My daughter asked to stay, she really wanted to try the food. Ugh....We got through the order but my grilled chicken didn't come with black beans, so I asked for a side. My bad for thinking I would get a scoop of black beans on my plate. He almost immediately brought out a cereal bowl size of black beans. It sat on the table while we waited for the rest of our food. By the time my order arrived, the beans were cold. We waited a very long time, I couldn't understand that. Again, there was no one else in the restaurant. And why did I get a bowl of beans without the rest of my meal?At some point, my daughter asked for a straw in English, and the young man brought her one. Of course I raised an eyebrow to that.The food was decent, but extremely overpriced for what it was. We waited for a check that never came. I had to walk to the counter to ask him for a check. He pointed at a handwritten sign posted at the register...in Spanish. I had no idea what it said, but I had a credit card in hand ready to pay. He then said, "No card, cash or Zelle only." I just stared at him. I don't know if I was more annoyed with his ability to speak English or the fact that there was nothing posted outside or anything written in English alluding to their payment policy. We still didn't get a check. I think he understood I wasn't budging until I saw a breakdown of the order. He wrote it up very quickly and handed it to me. I noted and laughed at his process. My chicken dish was $23.99, but the check reflected $24. That was the theme of all items on the check. By this time, I just wanted to pay and get out of there.After reading some of the other bad reviews, I don't take our treatment personal. But I do think it's sad because Fontana is full of big box stores, chain restaurants, and coffee shops, but little mom and pop restaurants to bring culture to our city.

We went during working hours listed on website. They were closed. So it was annoying. Plus very dark hard to find where restaurant was on the corner. It looks like it's very small. Not really a place to eat inside.

Dine in | Lunch | $30-50La comida está buena pero el problema es que nunca hay nada, ya van dos veces que voy martes y me dicen que no hay empanadas por que resulta que son de desayuno, luego tampoco hay colombiana o manzana por qué no ha llegado el pedido, la verdad la administración del lugar está muy mala, he vuelto solo por que es el único colombiano cerca que conozco, pero siempre que voy me decepciona.

The food was good. I only tried the arepas since it was my first time, but I will be returning to try more food.I had a funny conversation with the owner after I asked him what the restaurant name means. He did his best to explain it using Mexican terms. I learned some stuff about Colombian culture, which is a very nice bonus.
