The pork rinds were good, and the plantains were sweet, but the sausage lacked the typical chorizo flavor I was expecting. The breakfast was decent, though nothing particularly standout. The Colombian breads we took to go were definitely the highlight of the meal. Service was friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. It was a good experience overall, but I'd be curious to try the lunch or dinner menu next time.

Rock Hill, NC, is my halfway overnight stay when traveling from Ohio to Florida. I hopped on Yelp…read moreand checked out the local restaurants. I ordered dinner from Cali Colombian Restaurant. I orderd the Filete de Pollo a la Parrilla and chicharron. The grilled chicken was hammered so it was a thin but large piece. It had a pinkish tent due to the yummy seasoning. The chicken was juicy and bursting with flavor. Delish! I enjoyed the salad which included a light creamy dressing. The plantains were sweet and cooked perfectly! It was my first time trying chicharron and I am now a fan. I rarely eat pork. But this was fried delicately so the outside had a nice crispy crunch but the inside was tender and juicy. If you're looking to switch up your dinner routine, I highly recommend trying Cali Colombian Restaurant!

We stumbled on this place looking for another and decided to give it a try…read more My wife, being Argentinian has a high taste for different cuts of meat and they have to be cooked just right. Let's just say they did an amazing job at cooking the arepas, the chicken was filled with flavor, the steak was perfect and juicy while still being well-done to my wife's preference. Trying to explain that to people from the US is hard but it just took one trip to South America to realize what they were talking about. If you are prepping your meats properly you can achieve that well done juicy combo. These guys nailed it. The place looks relatively new, the staff are eager to serve, and I am recommending it to my Colombian friend who just moved to Charlotte as we speak. But for all folks looking for a good experience or a place for a work lunch it checks all the boxes. Order: Chicken arepas Entrana Reminds of "Tips" on the east coast but bigger.

This is the second time in a row that I've used it and it is very well maintained. It's large, clean and odorless. It gives me an overall positive feeling about the restaurant, which adds to my comfort when we eat here. We love coming here.

I am usually seated immediately if table are open and they come to the table quickly afterwards. Kudos! I love their empanadas. They are smaller and use corn meal for the crust instead of being more like pie crust as Cuban style empanadas are. They have a fabulous breakfast menu but I usually go for lunch or dinner. They have daily lunch specials that are listed on the website. These change daily. If you want to get an overall feel for Colombian food then try the Bendeja Paisa. It has grilled steak, pork rind, sausage, rice beans, Corncake, sweet plantains, an egg, and sliced avocado. All of their Flank Steak and Skirt Steak dishes are fabulous! Two that I really enjoy are Entrana and Carne Encebollada. They have seafood dishes too. Cheers!
