I was at thrift store and when I came out it was pouring outside so I decided to walk under canopy connecting the stores and found Columbia La Bella Restaurant so decided to go in for Lunch Special. I AM SO VERY GLAD, that I decided to eat there. The food was fantastic and what a deal for $11.99 (Grilled Chicken, white rice, ripe platains and a delicious home made chicken sound with more than enough chunks of real chicken breast. Too bad more people dont know of this restaurant as it was not as busy as it should have been. I never take picures of my food plate but it was so much I decided to do so to attach to any of my review. I will add if I have the option. I will continue to come here with friends and family when they ask for Latin food. Glad I accidentally found this restaurant. read more

4.5 stars if I could! This place was such a good find. I wanted a yummy hole in the wall place with authentic Latin food and Colombia La Bella did not disappoint. Treat yourself to some fresh juice or homemade lemonade... I'd go back for just that. Everything on the menu sounded great but I decided on the mini pasita. The beans were DELICIOUS. I didn't love the chicharrón but I don't usually like pork belly. The steak was okay, not super flavorful and a little chewy. But the arepa, yucca, beans, avocado and egg were amazing. And that juice, did I mention that juice?! Service was great in the quaint little restaurant. I'll definitely be back read more

Stopped by for lunch decided on the lunch special. It's so worth it only 11.99 for rice, salad, sweet plantains and soup. The soncocho hit the spot, vegetables were so yummy, beef tender, and broth was nice and flavorful. Can't skip out on the drink fruit smoothies here either. They really open up your tastebuds. I'm ready for seconds! read more

I work nearby and stop here at least once a week. It is convenient and delicious! To start? Their service is amazing! Valeska and Brian have helped me there. Both warm and gracious. Service is friendly and fast. Sit, and they will take your order tableside or order at the counter to go. The interior is clean and cozy with ample seating. Lunch time I've picked up and they are quite busy. Food? I do the empenadas for a lunch snack. Inexpensive, filling, and delicious. I recommend the beef empenada. My husband tried their Bandeja Paisa and loved it. Today, I had a corn cake they heat with cheese on top. Sweet corn with cheese? Yum. I'm anxious to try more of their menu. Call in with your order and time? They will have it ready! For fresh delicious food, I highly recommend this place! read more

I was craving good Colombian food and so glad this place popped on my Google search and I didn't have to go far to get it! The restaurant is small but very clean and cozy. You can order take out or sit if you wish to dine in. They also offer coffee, pan de bonos, arepas and empanadas to go (of you don't want a full meal). We dined in and sat at one of the tables. Pretty comfy, clean and a good size. We were taken care by Valeska and she was very nice, attentive, friendly, courteous and more than happy to answer any questions or make suggestions. Her good energy was contagious and sure made us have a great dining experience. We ordered a pan de bono, chicken empanada, arepa with morcilla, mini paisita entree, the grilled chicken with sauteed onions, guanabana water and a latte. Every was delicious! Fresh, made to order, tasty, full of flavor and balanced. Everything sure did hit the spot! I will definitely keep it as one of my go to's and glad we did stop by! read more

Cute little spot a bit hidden in the plaza that you won't be disappointed by stopping by. I got some carne salteada with beans, rice and sweet plantains and it was really good. Asked for chimichurri sauce and it's was bomb read more

The food and location is great. But the best of it is Valeska. She's kind and friendly. She's one of the reasons we come back every week. Her service is exceptional. read more

Always authentic great home-cooked food! We have had the frued bread balls, tostones, all the steak dishes and most if the chicken dishes. The flavor is spectacular and I always love eating here. Update: had the beef stew it was great read more

Delish food! Great portion for great price. The place is very small and I was a little turned off by the look as it felt crowded. When we walked in the person at the front told us to go ahead and sit down anywhere & someone would be with us shortly. We chose the cleanest one of the two tables. It took a bit for someone to come by but when they did she mentioned the table was not cleaned before we sat, so she sanitized it for us. (So the person at the front shouldn't have told us to go sit) Besides that everything was well, and the food totally made up for that. Food came out pretty quickly for how busy they were. Will prob return and take it to go next time! read more

A tiny, hole-in-the-wall, little restaurant, with the best Colombian food for miles and miles. Really! The service can be a little slow at times, but who cares, the food is amazing! The Bandeja Paisa is huge, and delicious. The Sunday Sancocho, raises the dead. The blended tropical juices send your taste buds into euphoria. And the prices are very decent. Don't give it a second thought, go to Colombia La Bella, and get transported to Colombia via your taste buds. read more

La comida es buena, pero los comentarios racista de la cajera es algo que está fuera de lugar. En un lugar donde puede estar presente cualquier cliente de cualquier nacionalidad no pueden estar hablando mal de un país, raza o religión. De verdad me sentí ofendido con los comentarios deberían ser más educados al respecto!! read more

The best service, food and atmosphere! I highly recommend this place. I had the carne asada and it was the very best I have ever ate.

This place is hands down the best around!! We always leave happy and sooo full. Service is top tier as well!

Horrible food .... Service was awful and the waitress was extremely rude and could have cared less about our table totally ignoring us and going to all the tables that spoke Spanish. Definitely felt discriminated against. The food tasted old and greasy and had to ask for my salad which on the menu says house salad but was like a chopped salad for tacos and the onions were pickled and tasted old and disgusting. Then when I went to check out, they kept the change I was to get instead of allowing me to make a decision on a tip which was $0 which is exactly the value of service we received. Would never recommend this place. Especially if you are a white American. read more

Mini Paisita is where it is at! Comes with a nice strip of crispy fried pork belly (chicharron) some thin cut steak, egg, beans, avocado. Everything has tons of flavor and for a locally owned restaurant this is such a great choice for a reasonably priced lunch on your break from the office life. Their staff certainly speaks Spanish but always make a very nice effort to understand English and make you feel welcome at their restaurant and help with the menu and answering questions. read more

They don't have Ben deserve a star. Called my order in at 1:40... 2:20 still not ready. They also made me wait when I got there. Horrible service. Never again. read more

Had the Bandeja Paisa. Lots of food: rice, beans, steak; sausage, sweet plantain, avocado and an egg. Service was good

SO GOOD!!! Definite came here for the Paisa dish. A full representation of Colombian food. Everything was delicious!!!! The hot sauce was so good too. We also ordered an empanada and pan de Bono and so fresh I can't wait to go back. The food portion was very generous so next time I'll probably order the mini paisa if I'm ordering appetizers. Service was really good too. Over all a great experience! read more

Great fresh tasting Colombian food, just like my Mom's cooking therefore very authentic. You will not be disappointed, if you decide to check them out note it's a small location but well worth the wait or even take out option. Beef empanadas and bandeja paisa are my favorite ! Bandeja paisa is a big size entree which is great for sharing. If you haven't had it check out my pictures- it brings a little of everything and very traditional. The blackberry/Mora shake has been my favorite since I was a child, it's always a treat to have again when it taste just like in Colombia. I've tried other local Colombian restaurants but they lack the consistency this one always delivers. read more

If you are looking for something different then this is the spot. The seasoning and flavors was incredible. They have many small plates and full meals. They have chicken, pork, beef, and seafood so no one will go without. We came to try a few things and look forward to coming back. It is a small space and can get warm when it's busy so dress for comfort. read more

¿Qué pasó con las buenas arepas con queso? Solíamos ir todos los fines de semana por ellos ahora La Columbia Bella no es mi primera opción. Además, algo siempre se está descomponiendo y durante mucho tiempo y no se soluciona lo suficientemente rápido como para complacer a sus clientes. primero su máquina de café y luego tostadoras. read more

I order through grub hub but they never turned on the tablet so my order never went through, wasted my short lunch break waiting for my food which I never got . Thank you read more

Not my first time having Colombian food but first time at this local what looks localy owned restaurant. I had heard about this place from a fellow co-worker and until now decided to try it out, the food was really good and it came out very quickly we had to barely wait for our meal. I had the "carne ensebollada" ( steak with onions) and it was a huge steak with white rice and black beans and plantains, the food was delicious and fresh and for the portion it was a good deal plus I had a can of coke with ice. Over all my experience of this place was great and what it seem that the owner was the one that took our order's and was friendly and nice and really took good care of us his costumers. The beans were good and the meat was also good, they have a good selection to choose from and even have desserts. Finding the place is not hard but you can miss it as it is inside a plaza with not to many business and it is all the way at the very end. If you like to eat at family own places with good food try this place out. They have a salsa looking sauce to put on the food and it was really good, definetly ask for it. read more

Auténtica comida colombiana! Bring your appetites. This is a wonderful mom and pop Colombian restaurant. My wife and I ordered two bandeja paisas (see photo) and were impressed with their food. Everything was prepared expertly and served with a smile. We have eaten at several Colombian restaurants in the area and this is our favorite. The servers were masked and the restaurant is small (only five tables) so go during off-hours if you want to avoid a crowd. We'll be back. read more

This place is sooo good and the prices are perfect. We drive to different Colombian restaurants to try a bandeja paisa and this was our favorite so far. We would've found this place sooner if the name is corrected here. It's Colombia not Columbia. read more

Ay que rico! Food is delicious, service is attentive. Had lunch there twice in a week. I love that they have a "mini paisa" for us that don't eat that much and still pretty filling...so filling that I took home leftovers. My husband had the breaded chicken which was moist...we'll definitely go back soon. read more
