We finally made it to Ritchie's! This is a little spot located off a super busy road, but in my…read moreopinion still easy to miss. It was super busy inside when I picked up my take out (I'd say they are definitely understaffed) and I felt for the one guy taking in person orders, phone orders, and waiting and bussing tables. With that said, the food was overall wonderful. I highly recommend the ropa vieja and the chicken or beef empanadas. SO good. We'd probably skip the Sobra Barriga a la Criolla (we'd prefer more sauce/flavor and I don't think the meat was actually flank steak, it appeared to be brisket). Well definitely return!

This place has gone down hill so badly ! The customer service is the worst ever . Asked the bar…read moretender if we could get some help opening an umbrella so we could eat outside on a beautiful Sunday afternoon (3/22/2026)! The bartender said sure and never sent anybody to open the umbrella or to even check on our table the whole time we were there . The young lady who brought us our food seemed extremely confused. When we asked to have the umbrella open outside for us to eat this young lady said .... " You have to go into the bar and ask somebody ." She didn't bother to ask her co workers for us. So I asked the bartender said he would take care of it right away and did absolutely nada ! The food has really gone down hill! The Colombian restaurants in Queens, Ny or anywhere else are so superior to this place !

The food was reheated, dry and or refried and the quality is just not there anymore. On top of that half of what I ordered was unavailable. It is with a heavy heart that I have to pass on The Colombian Place for now, and recommend other Colombians not waste their time or money.

I am so glad that the other bar I was planning on visiting was closed for a private event, because…read moreI probably would not have stumbled upon this wonderful bar/restaurant. The restaurant is located on the second floor of a "random" building, so it might be a bit difficult to find unless you are in the know. Although there were not many folks during my visit, the restaurant gives off a very strong Colombian flare. I originally stopped by to get a drink, but I ended up trying the caserito, which was sort of a combo meal. This meal included a delicious soup, a beer filet, beans, rice, and a small salad. It was quite the meal for only $14 bucks. I do not remember the name of the bean-based soup, but it was out of this world delicious. For $14 bucks, I thought the portions were quite generous. The service was pretty good. Since the bartender/waitress did not speak much English, dining here gave me the perfect opportunity to practice my Spanish. I definitely hope to return in the near future to try more items off of the menu and maaaaybe sing karaoke.

I ordered the Ajiaco, a homemade chicken soup with large chunks of chicken, corn, and other veggies. Flavorful, but not salty. The tostones with steak and guacamole on top was excellent, the bottom is a crispy plantain mashed down flat. They place the steak and guac and then drape it with this sauce. It was large enough for two people. I really enjoyed this; flavorful and filling. The steak was tender. You can sit in or take your food to go. The staff is very nice and will explain what the dishes are like if you're not familiar. They have so many things to explore outside of arepas. I look forward to coming back soon!
