As a Colombian who has been craving authentic Colombian cuisine since my last visit to New York in…read moreDecember, I can confidently say this restaurant truly satisfied those cravings. Being nearly eight months pregnant, my expectations were especially high, and it is rare to find a place that meets them so well. From the seasoning of the food to the warm and attentive service, everything about this restaurant stands out. Although I don't recall my server's name, he was incredibly kind and provided excellent service throughout. The ambiance is also worth noting--the space is large, offers plenty of seating options, and even features a large TV, making it a great spot to relax or watch sports. To start, I ordered a watered mango juice along with a beef empanada. The empanada exceeded my expectations--despite being on the smaller side, it was packed with flavor. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered five more to go, which speaks for itself. They were served with fresh ají, a traditional sauce that complemented them perfectly. For my main course, I had the carne asada plate, which included steak, rice, beans, sweet plantains, avocado, tomato slices, and a small arepa. Every component of the dish was well-executed--the beans were flavorful, the meat was well-seasoned, and the overall plate felt authentic. It is often difficult to find truly authentic Colombian food, especially in San Diego, where options are limited or not genuinely Colombian. This restaurant, however, delivers on authenticity and flavor. The portion size was generous, and I ended up taking leftovers home to enjoy later. In addition to the empanadas (two chicken and three beef), I also ordered a buñuelo and a cheese arepa to go. Unfortunately, these items did not meet the same standard. The arepa lacked flavor and was overly greasy, and the buñuelo was dry and similarly oily, even after absorbing excess grease from the bag. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for Colombian food, especially given how rare it is to find quality options in this area. Friends of mine visited recently as well and thoroughly enjoyed their bandeja paisa, further confirming the consistency of the food. I will definitely be returning--especially for those empanadas. Como colombiana que ha estado antojándose de comida colombiana auténtica desde mi último viaje a Nueva York en diciembre, puedo decir con confianza que este restaurante realmente cumplió con mis expectativas. Además, estando casi de ocho meses de embarazo, mis expectativas eran aún más altas, y no es fácil encontrar un lugar que las cumpla tan bien. Desde el sazón de la comida hasta el servicio cálido y atento, todo en este restaurante destaca. Aunque no recuerdo el nombre del mesero, fue sumamente amable y atento. un servicio excelente en todo momento. El ambiente también merece mención: el lugar es amplio, y limpio. cuenta con muchas opciones de asientos y tiene una pantalla grande, lo que lo hace ideal para relajarse o ver deportes. Para empezar, pedí un jugo de mango (rebajado con agua) junto con una empanada de carne. La empanada superó mis expectativas; aunque es un poco pequeña, tiene muchísimo sabor. Me gustó tanto que pedí cinco más para llevar, lo cual habla por sí solo. Venían acompañadas de ají fresco, que las complementa perfectamente. Como plato fuerte, pedí la carne asada, que incluía arroz, frijoles, plátano maduro, aguacate, rodajas de tomate y una arepita. Cada componente del plato estaba muy bien logrado: los frijoles tenían un excelente sabor, la carne estaba bien sazonada y jugosa y, en general, el plato se sentía auténtico. Hoy en día es difícil encontrar comida colombiana verdaderamente auténtica, especialmente en San Diego, donde las opciones son limitadas o no lo son del todo. Sin embargo, este restaurante sí cumple con ese nivel de autenticidad y sabor. La porción fue bastante generosa, por lo que terminé llevándome lo que no pude terminar para comer más tarde. Además de las empanadas (dos de pollo y tres de carne), también pedí un buñuelo y una arepa de queso para llevar. Lamentablemente, estos no estuvieron al mismo nivel. La arepa carecía de sabor y estaba grasosa, y el buñuelo estaba seco y también muy aceitoso, incluso después de que la bolsa absorbiera parte de la grasa. En general, recomiendo este restaurante sin duda a cualquiera que esté buscando comida colombiana, especialmente considerando lo difícil que es encontrar buenas opciones en esta área. Unos amigos míos también vinieron recientemente y les encantó su bandeja paisa, lo que confirma la calidad constante del lugar. Definitivamente volveré, especialmente por esas empanadas.

The dishes we had are not quite as they add a modern twist. The vegetarian soltado protein were "steak strips" versus just veggies/tofu/mushroom. It ate more hearty without a loss of flavor.

The spicy Aji had a long lasting kick and a smoky flavor. We definitely recommend this location for the food and experience!

I have been contemplating writing this review but it must be done…read more This place has significantly gone down the drain. The food use to be good, but slowly has been declining. We went there last week 8/12/26 4pm. I ordered the combo with a fish taco and chile relleno. I immediately noticed that the sauce on the chilie relleno was lumpy and congealed, it looked like mucus. The cheese inside was partly melted and partly hard. The fish taco was absolutely disgusting, it was mushy and soggy and oily. My brother ordered the carne asada plate (I didn't take pictures of that) it was literally a small piece of shoe leather, it tasted like freezer burn. Beans tasted like they had been reheated numerous days in a row.The prices for these plates were ridiculous. I hope that they do better. I hope that they change their food back to the way it was. If not, I'm afraid they will not last very much longer. Note: the service was good. Poor Gal was so embarrassed and so apologetic. Not her fault that management doesn't follow up on what's being served. Do better please.

It was made to order (not sitting around on a burner all day or made the night before). I REALLY appreciate that because I know it's extra effort. It was very good. Needed a little salt and I forgot to ask for some sauces to go with it (assuming they have sauces for this). It was quite warm inside, but not surprising considering it was around 100°F outside (WTF) but I noticed they have lots of seating and lots of food options on the menu and in the display cases. Will definitely come back!

Valle is an exceptional dining experience from beginning to end…read more From the moment we sat down, we knew we were in for something special. Jeff, the bartender, even created a custom cocktail just for me, and it was absolutely phenomenal. He clearly knows what he's doing, creating drinks that are expertly crafted, delicious, and the perfect complement to the meal. The food is absolutely outstanding every course is flavorful, delicate, and beautifully presented. You can truly taste the care, precision, and creativity that goes into every course. Each bite was memorable and perfectly balanced. The ambiance is elegant, comforting, and beautiful. The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere that allows you to relax while still feeling like you're enjoying a truly special occasion. One of the highlights of the evening was when Chef came out to speak with us. What an amazing experience. He was incredibly charming, gracious, and passionate about his craft. Taking the time to connect with guests added such a personal touch and made the evening even more memorable. To top it all off, our server, Alex, provided the best service I have ever received anywhere, from the patio experience to inside the dining room. His attention to detail, professionalism, warmth, and genuine passion for hospitality elevated an already incredible evening. He explained every dish with confidence, and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the entire meal. Valle is much more than a restaurant it's an experience. Every aspect of the evening came together flawlessly, and I can't wait to return.

We checked in with the…read morefront desk and they informed us that all parties had to be there before we're being seated and were told that we can walk around until reservations time then come back. We've been to many Michelin stars restaurants but the first experience was never like this. Usually, we'd be offered a seat or the bar while we waited. Our parties were finally arrived so we were seated out on the patio. Can't complain much since we had live summer concert from the beach and the sun kissing your skin. We were offered a refreshment drink which tasted refreshing. Champagne and caviar service came after. The condiments that came with the caviar service were spot on but the vessels they were in were too big, the spoons were too chunky for the tiny diced egg whites, yokes, shallots and chives. The summer menu was much better compared to the fall menu. We enjoyed the foods thoroughly. Final bill were 2,400 for a party of five with no wine pairing. Unfortunately, this would be our last time dining here. Since the experience from reception turned us off which dampened a more superior service from the patio and the main dining room.
