Maxon Restaurant never disappoints! The chicharron was absolutely amazing -- perfectly crispy on the outside and packed with flavor. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and the service was great too. Definitely one of my favorite spots and I'll for sure be coming back! read more

I had been craving Colombian food for a while and stumbled upon this hidden gem. I love places like this because they always have the most authentic and flavorful food--and this spot did not disappoint! I ordered the sancocho de pollo, and it was absolutely delicious--the flavors took me right back to my grandma's cooking. My partner had the bandeja paisa, and he devoured it--it was that good! The décor is a bit old-fashioned, but honestly, I didn't mind. I came for the food, and it delivered. The sweetest elderly couple runs the place, and their warm service made the experience even better. I'm so grateful to have an authentic Colombian restaurant in the area since there aren't many nearby. I'll definitely be back! read more

Peppe's Pollo - Sancocho de pollo - Colombian Near Me - West Covina, California

I tried their empanadas ($1.75), bandeja paisa ($16.25)and lulo ($3.75) which is sour apple. The lulo drink was creamy and cold, I haven't tried it before but I like the citrusy taste to it. I tried two empanada which was filled with creamy shredded chicken, very moist in a corn based empanada. It comes with green chili sauce that was not too spicy and lime wedge. I tried one of their most ordered dishes, bandeja paisa ($16.25), which is rice, lettuce, tomatoes, a sunny side up egg, a strip of fried pork belly, thin steak, a fried plantain, an arepa and a small bowl of beans. Very heavy meal that filled me up quickly. It seems to be family owned and the man was friendly. They have a few tables and a small parking lot. read more

Enjoyed another wonderful lunch at Peppe's today with Sopa de Viudo (catfish), camarones al mojo, arepas and yucca and a Colombiana!

Muy muy buena la comida aqui!! Recuerda ala comida de casa y muy buen servicio recomiendo 10000/10

Amazing! 10/10. My husband and I ordered 2 cheese arepas, 1 empanada, 1 lulo, 1 bistec, and 1 bandeja paisa. All under $50. The inside is small and cash only but the food is so worth it. It helps to know Spanish but the menus are in Spanish and English, so if anything you can point to your options. The lulo was so interesting- honestly it reminds me of orange Julius lol Seemed like a family owned business, an older gentleman helped us out. Very kind service. read more

Peppe's Pollo - Food is delicious and seems very authentic. - Colombian Near Me - West Covina, California

This is the only Colombian place located on West Covina the food is amazing. The empanadas and Bandeja are my favorite dish.

let me begin by saying that they clearly are not hurting for business. the owner was rude and I wanted to place a HUGE order.....he gave me the run around and us unprofessional. I do not trust this place read more

Yes, get the Bandeja Paisa. Yes, get the empanadas. Yes, support the small hole in the wall business that grabs your heart strings the moment you are seated. You can easily tell it's family owned and with all heart. An amazing menu with delicious Colombian dishes and face it, we don't have too many Colombian restaurants in and around our neck of the woods. So this little place is a gem. The chicharron on that bandeja Paisa, alone with the rice, would make me a happy camper all day. Those empanadas, came out piping hot and fresh from the kitchen with limes and chimmichuri. Just heavenly. I'm disappointed I haven't found them sooner! read more

This place is one of the few and probably best authentic colombian food restaurants outside of LA. The Bandeja paisa, Sancocho, empanadas, and Picada are all recommendations. During the holidays they may offer unique selections such as Lechona. For the best experience I recommend eating there. Unfortunately the two biggest problems they have is they often charge random charges on to go orders to try and make a few extra dollars, and unless you eat there they are VERY cheap with the portions on to go orders. This has driven some friends and family away, bad business practices but great food. read more

Best chicken I ever had. Been eating for 20 years + good potato salad and rice is amazing.

This place has been here for years, I've been to every other business in this strip mall but this one. Well scratch this one off the list too. Always looking for something different for my kids to try. They were game. Small little place. It was busy with only one mesera. She did tell us it would be a moment. Well once we placed our order it did take about 45 min and we got it to go. I ordered the Bandeja Paisa with carne asada. It was a strong dish. Little bit of everything came with it. I ordered a morcilla aka blood sausage. Haven't had that in years and it was good if that's your cup of tea. Other dish we ordered was the aroz con pollo and some empanadas. Food was good. Only thing in hindsight is I think we should of dined in. Because after waiting for our order we still had to drive home afterwards. That was are The service was great by the lone mesera and she helped us with the menu too since we were newbies. I will definitely come back to dine in and try another dish. read more

Absolutely love this place. Tastes like my mom's cooking. Hole in the wall little place that is one of my favorites.

I have really been wanting some yummy Colombian food and peppe's did not disappoint. The empanadas were fantastic, wonderful texture.. crispy outside and nice and stuffed inside. Along with the empanadas they make a great ají "salsa" to eat them with. The papa rellena was fantastic. Maracuya drink made with milk is absolutely delicious. We enjoyed this place so much I know we'll be coming back many times. read more

The food is good, unfortunately, they never have everything on the menu and they don't let you use the restroom. Not sure what the deal is but better Colombian places are out there. Go here if your desperate but maybe "to go" only, no dine in. The lady straight out said " el baño no es para prestar", after the long distance I drove to get there! read more

As a COLOMBIANO myself I love coming to this tiny, but wonderfully authentic Colombian Food! Try Arepas con queso. Genuine Colombian products from the old country! This ain't some other taco house! Nothing Mexican about this chow! This family owed restaurant features DELICIOUS FOOD! Haven't tried them yet?! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! They'll them Casanova de Barranquilla told you to visit! read more

Very good Columbian food! Only reason to try this cuisine was from Anthony Bourdain who went to Columbia and showed how they do breakfast. So I ordered the half chicken plate and bandeja paisa plate. Both excellent, loved their green fresh made salsa, beans were on point and the rice was buttery! Owner was nice and very cordial. Very small place for in restaurant dining. For the money, can't be beat. read more

Peppe's Pollo - Inside - Colombian Near Me - West Covina, California

Came here with a dear friend, and didn't expect to love it as much as I did. Interior is simple, and kinda homely, but don't let this atmosphere deter you... We ordered, and shared the empanadas, and dinner plate with all the fixings. Empanadas were delightful, a highlight of our meal. ...and the plate was enough to get us both full. Miss my old Colombian spot in the Valley, but thid is a welcomed new place to get my fix. Cannot wait to come back, and try something else! read more

I'm currently drinking A sweet milky MAMEY shake . Boy!!! I Love MAMEY and it's rare to find it outside a Michoacán ice cream place, but this my friends, is one of the best shakes I've ever tasted. Disclaimer: it contains milk. I'll have another!!! What I did come was for the Bandeja paisa. So Worth the $12.25. It's a good sized plate for a person with moderate appetite. I personally finished it but I consider myself one of good appetite. The owner was kind enough to give me a free refill of my drink cause it was bomb! This is a small family restaurant. It's well hidden and the area is small but the food is savory. Like mom's home cooked meals. Place is set with tables for family of up to 8. It's not big but I've never seen it packed with people. You can also order to go. read more

Excellent service and best empanadas in town I've ever tasted . Very freshly made . Nice little Colombian snacks to eat and buy .

The chicharon and pan debono are tasty. The pandeja paisa is not very big but good for the price.

Peppe's Pollo - Colombian Near Me - West Covina, California

Came here to taste Columbian food and was extremely disappointed. I ordered some empanada appetizers that were okay but not anything special. Then my Carne Guisado was almost inedible - the meat was tough and mostly fat. The breaded pork my husband ordered was dried out and fried to a crisp. My 9 year old had the fried chicken and only liked the french fries! Friday night at 6:00 I was surprised that the restaurant was empty. This should have given me an idea about the food. I won't return to this restaurant and am sad that my husband had to spend $50 for this experience. read more

Me being half Colombian and visiting Colombia every summer to stay with my grandparents . I know what authentic Colombian food should taste like . The empanadas were ok . The ají was ok as well but very watered down . I also ordered half a dozen empanadas and got 5 . Unfortunately I didn't notice until I was half way home and I love about a hour away from West Covina . The arroz con pollo was not good at all . Chicken was very dry and was pretty sad as I was looking forward to some bomb food . The customer service on the other hand was very good . read more

delicious food!!! highly recommend the bandeja paisa with the carne asada and a licuado de mamey! :) read more

Terrible service. The old man that runs this place is always rude and stingy with food. The food here is really not that great anymore. It never really was great- but decent. Now it's completely bland and gross. The service has always been bad with this man but we'd still come for the food every so often. We'll never be back after this last experience. No need to waste our time and money. Way better Colombian food in LA. read more

Not many Colombian restaurants in the LA area and I gave this place a chance, but unfortunately it was a huge let down. It's very small business, older couple owns the place, it I arrived on time when their hours say they are opened, but waited over 20 mins before they opened the door. I even ordered pad thai at the Thai place next door to overcome my hunger/frustration. I ordered the bandeja paisa and sancocho, but the food lacked flavor, very bland and tasteless. I wish this place was a lot better, I like giving small businesses a chance but this was a disappointment. read more

Favorite place for some local Colombian food. Have been coming here for many years. Hidden gem in the city of West Covina. Empanadas and the plato paisa is what my daddy used to always order. Now we come and order in honor of my dad Juan, RIP daddy. read more

Very friendly and comfy place. Not fancy at all, but the flavor is amazing. Once covid hit i stopped coming here for a bit, but i remembered the place and came back. I'm glad they're still in business and don't rip you off on the pricing, was not disappointed at all. read more

Good is terrific! Empanadas are my favorite and all the food is very delicious and consistent with Colombian taste. Highly recommend!!

Came to his place the old man guessing the owner really rude almost didn't have anything displayed on the menu,unbelievable customer service starting from the kitchen really sucks we asked to use the restroom and he denied it I don't understand how you can dine in but you cannot use the restroom he said it's against the law to use the restroom so maybe he just close everything in general if that's the law will never come back here again read more

This little spot is great! I am not Colombian, I've never had anyone's Colombian dishes before, so I cannot claim this is "Authentic Colombian Food" ONLY because I have never had it before. But I will say that the food here is delicious, and that it tastes like a homemade meal every time. I have tried multiple items of the menu, all were great, I come here every other week or so as I live close by. read more
