Hole in the Wall Colombian bakery/hot food place right beneath the last stop of the N/W train. A large variety of baked goods and hot food. Yesterday, they had barbequed chicken, yellow and white rice, some kind of soup and chicharrones and some baked chicken leg quarters. You can order a small or large piece of carne asada that but you have to ask specifically. I only knew about it because I saw it on Grubhub. I ended up having to show to them to get my beef lol. I also bought a pan de queso and a pan de coco and a couple of beef empanadas. I probably would go there again if I was in the mood for Colombian. read more

Picked up a few empanadas to snack on, a cheese and beef. They were very filling, but just ok. Will come back to try other things. Friendly greeting and clean premises. read more

Very disappointed in the way I was treated today. I've been here a couple times before and felt very welcomed. Today, however, I was definitely discriminated against because I don't speak Spanish. My Spanish is terrible so I ordered in English, which clearly the older woman working wasn't happy with. She then yelled in my face about a card minimum. I used to like going her but I will not be back and I will be telling everyone I know. I've been to plenty of food establishments where I don't speak the same language and all of them have made an effort. It also looks very dirty in there. Awful experience read more

Got really bad food poisoning from this place. I know it was this place because me and my roommate went there together and got the same thing. The next day was brutal. Won't becoming here again read more

ordered delivery. got two empanadas (beef and chicken) & the pechuga a la plancha. the beef empanada was delicious, full of meat, great for the price. probably wouldnt get the chicken empanada again, didnt like the flavor of the chicken & texture of what was inside. the pechuga was okay, i liked the tostones more than anything in the platter lol. the white rice reminds me of homemade pot stove canilla rice & the chicken flavor is alright read more

It was my first and last time ever getting food from here. I enjoyed the Colombian soda & juices. Their chorizo I asked to be fried more but it was barely refried! I also ordered an empanada de carne & 1 bunuelo. Sad to say the empanada was the worst I've ever had, barely any taste & it was so hard! The bunuelo was somewhat soft but didn't taste how they usually taste. I was told by ny physical therapy office staff that their soups and food are good and can make up for small food that doesn't taste good! read more

Fantastic local Colombian bakery with freshly baked pastries, desserts, and hot foods. You know its authentic when one of the cashiers could barely speak English and the main clientele is all speaking Spanish! I tried the chicken and beef empanadas, the pandebonos (cheese bread), and the arroz con leche (sweet rice pudding), and everything was so delicious! I've actually never had Colombian style empanadas before and now I'm hooked. I'm used to seeing empanadas made with more of a pastry-like dough, but these were made with a light crispy cornmeal batter and then stuffed with a tasty mixture of shredded meat and mashed potatoes. Soooo. good. The space overall is quite small but clean. There are a few tables and a small counter space for you to eat, but this place seems more popular to grab food to-go or to order delivery. read more

the staff at this place does mockery at English-speaking clients mostly elderly, who enter the place to ask questions regarding the food they sell. this is mostly discriminatory and I will file a complaint against. These young ladies do not know how to treat clients from different backgrounds. read more

Only ever tried the breads here, pretty dry. Unfortunately fell short as there are so many other Colombian bakeries in the neighborhood that are great. read more

Known on google now as "Antojito's," this is the REAL DEAL. Tastes just like food made in Colombia, and the portions size match (in Colombia serving are hefty, as they should be!) so it's win-win here. The service is quick and will encourage you to come back. I know I'll be back soon! read more

This is a review of only their two baked empanadas (beef and chicken). They were slightly a bigger size than the normal empanadas im used to. The chicken was a bit dry and consisted of mostly shredded chicken. The beef I believe consisted of ground beef, olives, and raisins. Although the menu said $1.75 for these "large" empanadas, I was charged $2 each for them. I didnt realize until I took their menu home. I wouldn't go here again seeing as they seem to charge people different prices and thats unfair to customers. read more

I ordered the chicken, rice and beans. THERE WAS A HARD ROCK IN MY FOOD!!! I will never order from here again. If I bit into the rock I would have broken my teeth then I would have sued them!!! Horrible!!! read more

Delicias Caleñas Astoria - A big, hard rock in my food - Empanadas Near Me - Astoria, New York

Cozy place next to the Astoria train station. Hot oatmeal is the best on cold mornings, and lazy ones too. They have a lunch special really affordable: soup of the day, and entree for about $9. On average, food, breads and empanadas look fresh. I guess because people do buy them. Customer service is always on point. Ladies behind counter are pleasant and take their time to take your order. read more

So you're in the mood for Latin food, you can't go wrong by stopping here. They're open really early, they're only a few steps from the Ditmars Blvd subway stop and anything you pick up will be fresh. The empanadas are amazing, especially with a cup of Colombian coffee. They even have "avena" which is a kind of Latin oatmeal, totally awesome on those cold days while freezing when waiting for the subway. If you're a Latin food lover, then you'll be in heaven with this spots amazing lunch menu, you'll get your choice of soup, white or yellow rice (your choice) beans and an entree, they've got chicken, beef, pork and fish prepared Colombian style all for $9.00. Did I mention the food is not only delicious, it's also consistent, I speak from experience, I go regularly. The service is great, nothing over the top, the ladies who run the spot are very pleasant and attentive. As someone who drives, all the parking is usually taken, but you can run in and make your order and wait in your vehicle. read more

I order here a lot from Grubhub. 1st issue they constantly forget my order and when I called to let them know I had to drive to the store to pick it up they wouldn't deliver it. 2nd issue they never call to say they run out of things they just replace it with whatever else they have. I've stopped ordering a certain amount of pastries because when they don't have they add whatever amount they have and add anything else without calling to at least give me an option of what I WANT Lastly they never put enough sauce for the empanadas. I usually order about 6 empanadas and they'll literally add one small 1oz little cup of sauce or sometimes I get none. The food comes cold and it bothers me that I always crave Spanish food so order here a lot but I think it's time to find another Colombian spot. read more

Started simple my first time here by just grabbing a few bunuelos and a cacao I was curious to see if they were gonna serve me some powdered Swiss miss crap but low and behold the infamous molinillo hand spun in the chocolatera just like abuela at home They obviously passed my first test My next test was the empanadas and the huevos pericos On point Good arepa Great cchicharon de guabana All in all great experience ditmars truly needed a Colombian restaurant and the line out the door tells me our prayers have been answered read more

I just paid $5.50 for a small soup. The sancocho de res which is basically beef stew and then they tried to give it to me with no beef in it: just two potatos. I literally had to be like "aren't you going to put meat in there?" Also they didn't even add the right type of meat to the recipe so it didn't really taste right. Casi me dan la sopa ciega sin carne. Yo no ordene caldo de papa, ordene sancocho de res. Me tocó reclamar que no le había echado carne y cuando voy a tomarme la sopa, quede desilusionada. read more

Finally, a local Colombian bakery in the area! Great stop for a quick bite especially their cheese balls! Two 2 seater tables with a bar area at the window and along the side of the other wall to eat and go. Staff was friendly! They serve hot food as well! read more

This is a small bakery and restaurant, right under the NW Ditmars subway stop. The space is small, with 2 two-seater tables and about 8 stools at the counter. It's well-lit and comes across a bit like a mini cafeteria. Their front display features two dozen different pastries and breads. I tried the raisin roll, and it was pleasantly, but not overwhelmingly, sweet. The back display features their dinner options. Every day, they seem to offer 3 entrees (meats) and 3-4 sides, and you can get a large plate of them made up. Portion size is large. The plantains had minimal oil, and my husband enjoyed his beef and beans. read more

They should be giving out bunuelos samples in the morning b/c most gringos don't realize that they are the perfect anti-bagel: hot, delicious, gluten-free, and less than a dollar. And their papas rellenas are the best $3.50 lunch in NYC, especially drenched in hot salsa. One day I'll get a giant plate of eggs rice and beans for breakfast, they look amazing. read more

Customer service was terrible! Lady behind counter had a bad attitude! I asked for 2 sugars in my coffee and when I get in my car to taste, no sugar. So on top of rudeness I don't get my coffee to my liking, lovely way to start my morning. Food is good which is why I'm giving it 2 stars. read more

I love this place! The food is fresh, bakery amazing and the staff is so friendly and lovely. Authentic Colombian delicacies at very reasonable prices. And honestly, they have the best chicharones in town! read more

I just love this place. Super Clean. Friendly and fast staff. Most importantly the food: always perfect with awesome prices. Totally recommend! Try the meat empanadas, buñuelos, pan de bono and hot chocolate. read more

As soon as you enter, the place looks clean and the smell of the food is divine. I have only tried the empanadas, which is the reason for my 2 stars. The beef and chicken empanadas had a good flavor, but no meat AT ALL ! They were stuffed with potatoes, perhaps 95%potatoes and 5% the flavor of meat. I went expecting to get a good empanada full of meat, and what I got was 10 empanadas full of potatoes. Perhaps other dishes are better, but for now, this place was terribly disappointing. read more

very good cheese and beef and potato empanadas will try hot food next time looked fresh.they open late and deliver. read more

Hi, the delivery person dropped one bag where my juice was and it spilled all over. I know he didn't do it on purpose but still, it has to be replaced read more

I went here for the first time yesterday to try the coffee and it was delicious. The atmosphere is very relaxing. I decided to try this place for breakfast next weekend. read more

I have been coming here since they opened, I love the fact that they are open 24hrs. Food is good and prices are decent for Astoria. However, the customer service is horrendous, I hope the owner teaches these employees the meaning of customer services. I have been in the industry and I always have respect for food industry employees and know the importance of tipping. My 12 years old had breakfast and got a sandwich to go for lunch and somehow the sandwich was either thrown out or stolen and when he told the counter lady, she said there is nothing I can do. I understand it is not her responsibility but it did happened inside the restaurant, you have a kid with no lunch in front of you and you can just grab another bread with a slice of cheese and ham and give it to the kid so he would not be hungry the rest of day. But i guess this restaurant will go broke after that sandwich. I hope they practice better customer service in the future. read more

I'm very honest by reading this review, I use to go there often but seriously even time I get disappointed. The service is ridiculous, they are extremely rude and unprofessional specially the blonde lady behind the counter. They don't speak English only Spanish and if u don't speak there language they discriminate you for sure.. I guess we are in New York not Colombia !!!!!!! Definitely there food are good price that's why there always busy it's also cheap quality. Well my story is I use to go every day for breakfast etc... Sometimes they forget to give me my coffee to go and I don't say anything, I never ask to be reimbursed for something I payed for and they never put it inside my bag... One day I ordered like usual, give to the blonde lady my card to pay , she look @ me very nasty and start screaming in front of everybody how come I don't know that's the minimum charge with card is $10 since I come everyday!!!!! Exactly I'm there often I shouldn't even treated this way. She force me to get something else to be charged $10!!! They're so rude I don't recommend this place and I will never go there anymore. read more
