    My husband and I dropped in here on a whim on a recent date night, and we're so glad we did. The space is cavernous, with a fun, festive vibe for those chasing ambiance, along with two enormous TVs for those who just want to kick back and watch some sports with their meal. The menu is diner-deep, but nearly every dish is accompanied with a photo. As newcomers, we found this especially helpful. The fried calamari are fantastic. Hot, freshly fried, and perfectly tender. My husband, who is particular about those tentacle pieces, was delighted to see half our plate covered with them. Since we were at a Columbian restaurant, we wanted to try something authentic but felt too shy to ask around, so we went with something from the specials section called 'chicken with Columbian mushroom sauce'. Wowza was that good. I have no idea how true to the culture it was, but that cream sauce was something else. We dragged everything we could through the last droplets, unwilling to see it wasted. The specials also come with rice, choice of salad or soup, choice of beans, and fried plantains. It's a generous serving size, so much that one shared entree, plus an appetizer and salad, was more than enough food for us. All servers are equipped with ear pieces to directly communicate with staff and the kitchen. It seemed a little overkill at first...until we found out how efficiently the service was as a result. While ordering an entree, for instance, our server was able to quickly chat with the back staff to check if there was any soup left. When we were done with our meal, a busser was able to quickly flag down our server for the check. And when there was a massive crash and spill at a nearby table because some kid chucked his water glass, three people descended upon the mess in - no joke - under ten seconds because of this radio. It's a frighteningly efficient system, and it meant we hardly ever needed to wait for anything. While we didn't get to try anything from the drink or desserts menu this visit, know that the selection is tantalizing. We vowed to return for the margarita flights and the pastries on display at the in-house bakery.

    Decided to meet here for drinks and a bite on a whim and the place was pretty lively both indoors and in their outdoor seating area. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very nice and attentive throughout our time. We ordered a 1/2 pitcher of red sangria and 2 salads (glazed salmon and shrimp). The sangria while flavorful wasn't as strong as expected and was pretty juice heavy. The salads were much smaller than pictured on the menu and both rather bland. The vegetables also weren't crisp. Overall a mid meal.

    What a treat! We enjoyed our first-time visit here at Colombia Kaliente. I was surprised that inside was actually quite spacious. It had a fun vibe, with sports shown on TV, good music, friendly staff and of course delicious food! the portions were generous and the meats were flavorful! We got their Paisita, Especial de Carne Molida, and Especial Lomo a la Plancha and everything was perfect! Price was reasonable as well. They even have fresh breads and I had to get those mini pandebonos and guayaba to go! love that theyre good for whatever type of groups-big/small, family/friends-with option for alcoholic drinks and offering both indoor and outdoor seating! There's something for everyone!

    Beef empanadas with delicious red and pink sauce

    I love coming to Kaliente's normally for dinner, but this time we decided to go for breakfast and it did not disappoint. I started off with a delicious beef/potato empanada just one lol to have with my creamy cafe. Then I ordered my healthy omelette -egg white omelette with spinach and was supposed to also have mushrooms but I think the cook left them out lol, but other than that it was tasty. My health omelette came with a perfect side of fresh fruits and they were sweet and delicious. The people that serve you are always very attentive and always pleasant. Kaliente always has great music on very nice ambiance. Why I don't give them a five star is because besides being well attended-host or on hand management at the door are very serious. I think a smile now and then would make a better experience.

    What I ordered

    Food was delicious, I ordered the pandebono burger cause it had the cheese bread as the buns!! Fries were delicious! Would come here again. Service was nice, ambiance was nice.

    This spot was a whole vibe! Excellent customer service ! Clean inviting ambiance and delicious food! They have sangria pitchers and their lychee sangria is awesome! Had their whole fried snapper with sweet plantains and yucca frites all was good except the yucca was pretty dry, it missed a sauce on the side as well. Their bandeja paisaita is a classic columbian dish with chicharon, chorizo and skirt steak, rice and beans , my friends got the chicken cutlet in mushroom cream sauce which was great and they make a bomb chicken quesadilla! Their margaritas are top tier as well! A nice lunch spot that comes alive at dinner and the weekends! A must try! On site bakery as well for some of the best pan de bono!

    I repeated a delivery order from here today! Soooooorry but their AREPAS are homestyle and delicious Beans are really tasty . Black Coffee is good; ham with scrambled eggs is sooo Good!!! I Red Velvet cake was soft, fresh, delicioussss!!! Everything was well wrapped and huge portions. It seems that Colombia Caliente uses high-quality ingredients and everything was fresh and at right temperature when I got my order. Thank you, guys; keep doing a great, great job!

    Visited Colombia kaliente and it was great! Food is large portions. They have a large menu of various items. The service was great. Waitress gave great recommendations. Drinks were excellent. They also have a bar you can sit at. Ambiance is airy with a lot of space between tables.

    Bandeja paisa with no sauce

    How do they never provide any sauce on the delivery orders.... Like I called to make sure they send it and they still don't send it....

    I would totally come back to this restaurant! It's was a welcoming experience along with great hospitality and food. The atmosphere was amazing too nice and clean. The thing that lead me to trying this restaurant was due to the fact I found out I actually had a small percentage of Colombian in my DNA. So I said why not give this place a try and glad that I did I'll definitely be back for more good food and a good time! So yeah it's definitely worth it. Thanks Colombia Kaliente!

    I'm really liking this place. The coffee is delicious. Strong and rich. I drink it black with no sugar and it's very flavorful. I like that they open early and seating is plentiful. I've had breakfast twice now with friends and we all were happy. Very friendly attentive service. The menu has many different options with pictures that are pretty accurate to what gets put in front of you. They also have a bakery section with loads of goodies. I also like that we were never rushed. A great place to catch up with your buddies. Also a large bar in the back. The restrooms are clean and large. Street metered parking. Dress seems casual. A nice neighborhood find you could frequent regularly.

    Bistec, so good

You can tell nothing was frozen or microwaved, everything was made with care. My only complaint is how long it took to make the food. About 30min wait. But hey, that means they're actually cooking the food, right? I would happily eat here again and recommend to anybody. A big plate of fresh hot food for $20? Worth.

Very pretty restaurant, with lots of colors and decorations inside. I was surprised to see their gigantic menu that has so many different kinds of items including burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, arepas, papas, ensaladas, patacons, antojos, bakery, desserts and juices. I order couple of beef empanadas and flan to go. The lady packed up my items right away, super quick service. Beef empanadas were filled with beef and potatoes, with delicious green and spicy mayo sauce on the side. I was blown away by the flan. Such creamy taste yet it was dense. Like other flans it wasn't over baked, so it still had light yellow color instead of dark brown on top. My first visit was great. I am going to stop by again to try the other items in the menu.
