A rather small but cozy place. The food is delicious and tastes homemade. The service is quite good. However, if you want to enjoy your meal more, I recommend ordering it to go because of the small size of the place. But overall, a recommended place if you want to try authentic Colombian food. read more

They really need a new cook. Ordered beef empanadas and Chicharon con patacones and it was so bad you could not eat the patacones. Food was not fresh at all. read more

As a Colombian, i think these are great empanadas. I had a craving, Cale's in my order 15 minutes later... Yum!!

With a 4 star rating, I was looking forward to a treat. There were many great reviews so it seemed like it should be a slam dunk. Instead, I jumped and got faked out. My son and I ordered the Calentado Tipico. The skirt steak was tough and the eggs and rice were extremely bland. The avocado had seen better days and the cornmeal biscuit was the only thing with flavor which was salty. My wife and daughter were also not impressed with the Hawaiana arepas (couldn't taste any pineapple) or the chicken empanadas. Maybe it's a different experience if you dine in but our take out was extremely underwhelming. At least we tried it. We can cross this one off the list. read more

Homey, authentic Colombian spot in Hawthorne. Came here on a Tuesday evening for dinner and got seated immediately. Indoor dining only. Credit cards accepted. They spoke in Spanish but there also pictures on the menu for non-Spanish speakers. The atmosphere felt as though you were invited into someone's home to eat. We split a bandeja paisa which provided a little sampling of everything (blood sausage, asada, and chorizo) plus rice, beans, avocado, and plantains. The portion sizes are very generous and even with two people, we didn't finish everything. It was nice to be able to enjoy a leisurely meal in a family-owned setting. read more

They don't read instructions. I don't eat maduros, they sent a plate full of them when I specifically said under instructions "green plantain only" Foods were not so tasty. Especially the frijoles, it taste like it has been sitting out for days. Go spend your money elsewhere. read more

Colombian Delicatessen - Maduros that I don't like - Delis Near Me - Lawndale, California

As a native Colombian, went looking for typical food that doesn't break the bank. I was greatly surprised with the quality and variety of food, from empanadas as appetizers, to the main course which was the dish of the day (Almuerzo Ejecutivo). Nice place with great service and friendly staff. Good place to eat and enjoy the typical Colombian food. read more

I usually have a very hard time getting through to someone to place an order. Today I was able to get through and when I told them I'd like to place two orders they hung up on me. I thought it was a simple mistake, but I tried calling 8 times at different time and I haven't been successful. This place really needs to step up their customer service and attention to their phones. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time this has happened to me and last time I even mentioned it to the owner. read more

I came here last week on a whim. Was in this plaza to pick something up and I was hungry so we stopped in to grab breakfast. All I can say is WOW. Everything was super fresh and delicious. I ordered the calentado, arroz con pollo, a bunelo and a coffee. The rice and beans for the calentado were perfectly seasoned and the meat was tender and flavorful. The guy working there was the son of the owner and he brought over some homemade spicy sauce that we couldn't stop eating. The arroz con pollo was full of flavor, color and fresh vegetables. It was so homey and it came with a side of french fries. This is weird to say but when I bit into them, they tasted like potatoes - I could tell they had peeled, chopped, and fried them right there. My boyfriend got the sobrebarriga criolla, which was a pulled beef dish in a rich, creamy sauce. We both loved the sauce and it was served with rice and a large piece of avocado. He also ordered a fresh passionfruit juice and you could tell it was made right there. We were so impressed with all the food. The son, Braden, told us this restaurant has been there for a while but his father purchased it about 6 months ago, so I think the menu has changed since before. We will definitely plan to come back! Thanks for an incredible meal! read more

Pretty nice and quaint spot located in the same plaza as Pep Boys, Colombian Delikatessen is worth the visit. It's menu is not so large but it's food is tasty, homey in my opinion. So what did we have? Bandeja paisa and Calentado with blackberry juice and "lulo" with milk shake (I wouldn't call that juice). Prices are pretty good and service is nice and attentive. They also have some Colombian products to purchase, I bought coffee ( I love coffee) Of course I'll be back if in the area. Recommended!!! read more

Excelente servicio , el tiempo de espera fue mínimo la comida tiene un 10/10 , el lugar no es muy grande pero es acogedor.

When you come here, you're made to feel like you're family. The owner, who is originally from Bogota, was very welcoming and kept saying that when we come, we're home. The breakfast dishes we ordered were all delicious, and we'll definitely be back. Just wish that chicken empanadas were available for a non-beef eater like me. The coffee could be a little stronger. read more

First time trying Colombian food in this small local place! They did not speak English and had a few pics but no menu, so figured it's legit!!! The empanadas were BOMB!!!! Made from corn (how can I ever go back to flour empanadas?!?!) with shredded beef and yellow potatoes. Super fresh and super delicious. I mean probably the best I've had - as a person who loves Latin food but is not Latina! We also got a dish called bandeja paisa which was a fried egg over rice, fried plantains, beans, deep fried pork belly, two kinds of sausage, carne asada, avocado and what I think is maybe like cassava biscuit? Our total bill was only around $11. Empanadas are $1.50 each and well worth it. read more

I love this place. It's great to have a good Colombian family business restaurant in the southbay. Great to see the owners and staff know the customers name when they walk in. Every day of the week they offer a new lunch special that includes soup and dish with either beef or chicken. Food is always fresh! My favorite plates is the Arroz con pollo and Bandeja Paisa read more

Painfully average and painfully expensive. Nearly 70 bucks for two Bandeja Paisa. Steak was tender yet flavorless, the rice was bland, and the empanada was okay. Definitely not worth the price read more

New owner new price - was $1.50, now $2.25 for empanadas. Th empanadas are now a little different. They are harder than it used to be. read more

Looking for a good spot for lunch? Well look no further. This hidden gem has some authentic Colombian dishes. There are 3 ladies doing the cooking, do not be impatient and knock them for that. They come out fresh and delicious and you can tell they made it with loved. The bandeja paisa is a tour of Colombia, this dish is packed with a steak, chicharron, blood sausage and chorizo. Along with a mini arepa, avocado, platanos, fried egg and rice and beans. Can you get a better plate for $13? The arepa with shredded beef also slapped the taste buds. If you are in the southbay area, give them a try. read more

New ownership! I just bought the most delicious buñuelos (cheese balls). They tasted like heaven, I wished I would have bought more. Crispy on the outside and soft inside, they go perfect with coffee or hot cocoa. The service was also outstanding, very friendly and attentive owner. Thanks read more

Such a cute spot and the food was amazing. Not expensive and the portions are generous. Definitely going back soon

Let me begin by saying that I first tried their empanadas because one of my student's parents brought empanadas to one of our potlucks at school. It was love at first bite! Since then, I've been to this place a couple of times and will continue to come back for their delicious empanadas. I really want some now that I'm talking about it read more

Delicioso! Cada uno de los platos fueron muy ricos, las empanadas me recuerdan el sabor que tienen las empanadas a la salida de las Iglesias en Colombia, pero con mas carne, el ají es muy delicioso también y ni que decir del arroz con pollo y el ajiaco que estuvieron tan sabrosos, el lugar es limpio. Definitivamente vale la pena regresar a este lugar, y sin duda alguna la próxima vez que regresemos a Los Angeles vamos a detenernos aquí. También es muy económico. read more

I came here looking for good food which it was good and It felt like visiting family, until, I Place an order and the lady said 30min I got there 30 more minutes passed by and the food wasn't ready. I asked the guy what happened and he got livid, furious, and was shouting at me and got in my face i felt scared, for me customer service is important, and if I'm treating a person with respect, I expect the same respect. When I got home to my food, there was hair in my food and it was super cold. read more

It's a small place, but the food is delicious and their staff super friendly. I recommend the empanadas (yummy)! They have daily specials but my husband and I have been there on Friday so it was Sancocho ( super delicious) and we couldn't eat the side dish which was rice, chicken and salad we took it home! Churrasco is super yummy and big portions! I do recommend this Colombian Deli. read more

This is authentic Colombian home style cooking. My husband and I usually order the picada and we'll have plenty of leftovers for the next day. Super flavorful and filling.

Stopped by today to pick up a few empanadas and arepas for dinner. Wowwwww, their empanadas are de-li-cious!!! We ordered both chicken and beef and they were equally tasty! I preferred the simple arepa con queso but my husband found the arepa con jamon y queso tastier. Regardless which you choose, you can't go wrong. Looking forward to coming back and trying their other dishes! read more

We ordered online, and showed up to find that they had not made our order at all. They started it over and quoted us 20 min which became over an hour. What could have been a simple pick up took several hours of time. They were unapologetic, slow, and disorganized. read more

NOTE: Yelp shows them CLOSED down. NOT true they are OPEN.. The empanadas this Colombian delicatessen makes has to be without question the best I've ever had from a restaurant. They remind me of how my fathers would be make them. They're full of potato and shredded beef. The seasonings as they touch the pallet of your mouth screams out COLOMBIA. Absolutely delicious. The plate is a traditional Colombian dish called Bandeja Pisa. It's made with rice, beans, Colombian sausage, chicharon "pork rind" with meat" a fried egg and fried plantains called patacon. This is a must stop and to be bookmarked for the future. One of the greatest things about this place is they have no menu. What ever the cook wants to make for the day is what's available. A bold thing to do but as they keep their food to a minimum you're guaranteed a meal that's 100% home made. read more

A jewel in Southern California?!?!?!?!? seriously??? Ummm No! As usual I was on the run and looking for a quick bite to eat. I found this Columbian "99cent store" on Yelp in search of empanadas. once again when I entered the store the lady greets me "Hola, como estas"?....me: "bien blah blah my spanglish blah. I ordered two empanads because that was the only food I saw in the store besides Colombian sodas chips and cookies . they also had Colombian souvenirs...but I can't eat those. The empanadas were not only small but tasted like a corn meal ball with more corn meal inside and a pinch of beef. I guess my slow Spanish gave me away, when i left i said adios...n she said....in the Queen's English, "GoodBye" 8o/ read more

I was looking to try Colombian food for the first time and as I was thinking that I would probably have to drive into downtown LA to do so,I was so happy to find this place a few blocks away from my house! It's a small restaurant so seating is limited. Not only do they serve food but they also sell snacks, souvenirs and other Colombian products! Before going I read about complaints on the wait time for the food to arrive but the food is so fresh and authentic that I understand why it takes them time to make it. It has such a homemade feel to it that I could almost imagine that I was being served food at someone's home. Not to mention how warm and welcoming everyone was there! Our order: Empanadas: ate them as appetizers Arepa Rellena: SO GOOD, Especially with the orange colored sauce they give you! Tamale: HUGE and had so much flavor! I would definitely come back here again and would recommend this place to anyone in the South Bay Area! read more
