The A/C was a little low (kind of warm inside), but the chicharones appetizer was SO GOOD. I also had a mango licuado (mango milkshake) and wow - lovely light flavor. We had a sugar cane lemonade as well and you could tell the difference in sugar. The green salsa was all fresh ingredients and tasted so refreshing. The tomatoes seem home grown - the flavor was out of this world. Go here! read more

Disappointed! I've been going here for 10+ years. Surprised and loved the remodel and decor. BUT the prices are ridiculous. Not only the prices, but the food was horrible. I spent 22.00 by myself and only 2.00 was edible. So now I have to spend another $10, just to eat, after leaving this restaurant. Oh, and the service... after I received my food/drink, the next time I seen her was walking to ask for my check. BTW it was only myself and a party of two, who finished their food, upon my arrival. The picture is AFTER I tried to eat. Will never return and I use to love this place. read more

I was originally craving a bandeja paisa and found this spot with its amazing reviews. The photos looked great and the decision was made to eat here! There's a decent seating area for a strip mall restaurant and it's open seating so we grab a menu a pick a table. After sitting down and looking at the menu, I opted for the Sancocho de gallina. My partner got the bandeja. We started out with empanadas and that's when the red flags started. First, the salsa comes out in a small open jar; you can see this has been used before as there were crumbs from previous meals. Then I had a bone in my chicken empanada. Moving on to the main dish - the food is visually appealing. The flavors in the bandeja were good however more red flags. 1- the food is not hot. And this goes for the entire meal. Just like momma bears porridge, cold. My sancocho was also barely warm which is not expected when ordering soup. I was also surprised to see a whole quartered chicken in there. So it was NOT fun having to take the chicken apart. Shouldn't have to work hard at eating soup. Overall, service was relatively slow but friendly. The prices are affordable. Food is visually appealing but questionable. read more

We've been going to this restaurant for 2.5 years. Hadn't been in a couple of months. We were surprised by the remodeling that occurred. The restaurant is much nicer. The only problem is that they also raised the prices significantly. The food is the same, which is good, but not worth the increased prices they charge. $100 for four of us was way too much. Now I understand why there were no other customers in the restaurant on a Saturday. Now, unfortunately we have to find another Columbian restaurant near us. Goodbye, it's been a nice couple of years. read more

How am I now just reviewing this place? I've been to so many Colombian restaurants in houston and this by far is my favorite. My favorite dish is the bandeja paisa; you truly cannot go wrong with that plate. I usually order take out and they are super fast. Also, I love how friendly they are. 5/5 read more

Food! Meat was burnt could not even chew it. A little disappointed, I have always ordered from here but last couple times food has not been good. read more

La Olla Restaurant - Katy - Mi pollo estaba duro y quemado. Siempre e ordenado de allí pero hoy la comida no estaba bien. Que decepción! - Colombian Near Me - Katy, Texas

Delicious food! Highly recommend the paisa plate comes with a lot of different food and it was all so yummy!

I've had this place bookmarked for a couple years and I finally pulled the trigger today. So glad I did. My cardiologist would not approve of the lunch I had today but I can't lie. I may do it again tomorrow. The dish consisted of rice, beans, pork belly, sausage, steak, sweet plantains, and an over easy egg. Everything was exceptional but the highlight of the dish for me was the sweet plantains. Sofa king good. read more

Great food at good prices- but this is authentic, not fancy, not foodie. Speaking Spanish is a plus, which we don't, but the staff is super sweet regardless! We had GREAT seafood dishes, tasty empanadas and good portion sizes with the best plantains I've had in Houston. read more

Food was fine. My mango juice was delicious. Service was good. Ambiance was so so. I like watching MMA at home but not at a restaurant. Price was reasonable. read more

MUY delicioso! I had Milanese de Pollo and sopa. Wow! It was incredibly wonderful and flavorful! I loved it. Prices were also great and server was lovely too. Thank you! I can't wait to bring my husband back here! read more

Authentic Colombian Food in Katy! I am Colombian and a recent transplant from Chicago. The food at La Olla is phenomenal! When trying a new Colombian spot, I alway judge them by their Bandeja Paisa and their empanadas, both here were perfect and on point. For the uninitiated, a Bandeja Paisa is a hearty platter of steak, fried pork belly, sausage, fried yellow plantain, rice, beans, and topped off with a fried egg. It also comes with an arepa which is a small fried corn pancake. This is a huge plate, enough to serve as your only meal of the day...because it will be impossible to be hungry afterward. All that food for $14 bucks! Give them a try! read more

Delicious food. Wife was a little skeptical as first but the servals was amazing and the food was great.

I ordered 110 Empanadas, Chicken 10 and beef 100. They were a hit at the party. Crispy and Delicious!! I will come here to have lunch in the future. People are friendly and caring. Prices for empanadas are reasonable. If you are at the Katy location on Fry, don't go anywhere else. This restaurant has the lowest prices!!! SO YUMMY! read more

Food is delicious every time!! Definitely a good place if you want a lot for a good price !!

Came in for lunch after doing a tenant check and have no idea what to order. Waitress recommended one of the paisa plate and it did not disappoint! Very good service and they did a good job with social distance and mask. Will definitely revisit. read more

AMAZING Colombian food experience. The passionfruit natural juice was my favorite and the bandejas paisas was perfect especially with the green chili sauce. We ordered the coconut flan at the end and it was the best flan I've ever had! All in all loved being here and so reasonably priced (: read more

service was absolutely terrible. the food was alright, but i've had more authentic colombian food. the owner also runs Roasti Pollo which I've been to both locations and they're so much better than this one. It's most likely the workers, their service shows how little they care for their food. Atmosphere was good tho, clean environment and good music. They just need to change the workers as everytime it's a bad experience with them and we've been eating here for years read more

Food is overpriced and not good at all! I got sick after you ate food here. I won't go back.

The bandeja paisa is delicious and so is the meat empanadas. The service is really good.

La olla always hits the spot, every day they have different types of specials, my favorite tho has to be Friday because they will typically have steak! And i mean a delicious steak. If you're looking for an authentic Colombian restaurant this is definitely the place! read more

La Olla Restaurant - Katy - 16oz churrasco steak. - Colombian Near Me - Katy, Texas

This restaurant is not what used to be,meat is cheap quality and very dry, so sad , we just to go often but the last 3 or 4 times food is not the same, I never going to comeback. Ya no es lo mismo que antes, el baby churrasco ahora es de muy baja calidad, es todo seco y aparte lo pedi a termino medio y lo trajeron casi quemado, mi hijo lo pidio medium rare y tambien se lo trajeron casi quemado, que triste, ya no planeamos regresar. read more

If you crave for some good Latin American cuisine you will not be disappointed with what La Olla has to offer. Upon entering, you will be greeted by some Cumbia/Salsa music and an ongoing fútbol game on TV. Restaurant's space inside though somewhat limited is cozy making you feel at home. I recomend trying their "Bandeja Paisa." This Colombian staple includes white rice, beans, sausage, skirt steak, fried plantains, avocado, arepa and a over-easy fried egg on top. Waitresses will greet you with a smile and are very friendly. Overall highly recommended! read more

we went to La Olla field the fist time and it was Amazon! I ordered a cheese enchilada and and it was served with a dish I had never tasted Calabacita and it was delicious.bOur server, Trista was amazing. she explained the dish I had never had and wrote the spelling so I could try and make the dish. Trista was kind and courteous. We will bring friends next time. love the atmosphere as well. read more

Great food. Great prices. Small place. Typical blue collar restaurant for a weekday lunch or a weekend hangover (good soup.. lol)

I tried this place for the first time today! I've been to Colombia and I was excited to try the bandeja paisa. I enjoyed the beans and rice and the dish stays true to Colombian roots overall. The yucca frita was my favorite as it wasn't as oily as it is in most places. The green sauce that came with it was really tasty. I tried the chicken empanadas and although the hot sauce that came with them was amazing, the empanadas themselves were mediocre. They weren't as crunchy as I thought they would be and that's the best part about Colombian empanadas! Would recommend this place for an overall authentic Colombian food experience though. read more

You know it's good when you can literally taste the skillet in the flavors of the food ha ha! Food arrived fresh and hot and was very good! Grilled tilapia topped with their La Olla sauce, fried plantains, rice and salad with ranch dressing. The La Olla sauce did not alter the flavor at all. read more

Amazing food, i could eat here every day! The bandeja paisa and churrasco in particular. The staff is fantastic and knows exactly what my wife and I like and know us by name. Prices are very reasonable. My one small complaint is that they always forget my aji when i order takeout, but the food is so good that they get 5 stars nonetheless read more

I love their food it's real good and a fair price I would recommend to friends and family without no hesitation.

It's not my first time eating from la olla it's been few times All I can say it's a good quality service mostly, today this delivery driver call Dawn was so professional very attentive to my needs and able to help. I was starving I ended up 100 % satisfied food was good I got tilapia white rice (the rice was kind of high in sodium) with salad and fried plantains. Customer service was more impressive to me, keep up the good work. read more

This is going to be a favorite of mine. I got the Milanese Chicken (Chicken fried chicken) and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The portions are big and it came with a side salad, plantains, and rice. The chicken was battered in bread crumbs and deep fried. The inside was still soft and juicy! I appreciate fried chicken that isn't jerky tough or fried. The waitress was friendly but doesn't speak English. Pointing out what you want would have to suffice. It definitely gives you an idea of how it would feel to order food outside of the States. I would recommend this place to family and friends in the Cypress and Katy area!! read more

La Olla Restaurant - Katy - Milanese Chicken - Colombian Near Me - Katy, Texas

Definitely one of my favorite Columbia restaurants . They have three locations and this one is my favorites. Baby churrasco is tender and spices hit your taste bud like heaven. The presentation is beautiful and it is serve on hot sizzling plates. The server is on point even she does not speak much English, but the service is on point and better then I normally received in the restaurants. The place itself is decorated with some Columbia art makes you feel like you at a cafe in Columbia . Clean tables and clean floor all the way through the restroom. Got invited back to try their specialty plate, I can not wait until next time. read more
