Service is rude and prices are not listed on the menu correctly. When you ask your waitress about items on the menu such as their added bars and I asked the lady are these the ones that are made of corn and yellow with cheese on it and she says yes and when they come out, it's the opposite and you ask her and she's like well that's what we have here so I was like well. I don't want this and she's like well too bad you ordered it you had there's nothing I can do and then when you receive your check and ask why the difference in price they respond well that's just how much we charge so when you asked to speak to management, they say oh your server should've told you we'll just take it from their pay and then they tell the server in front of you you're gonna have to pay for this. It's a really awkward situation and not fair. Not to mention that our waitress was coughing and sneezing with a runny nose, her wiping her nose and then grabbing the pen to hand it to me to sign the receipt. It's just very unsanitary and the management is there watching it and doesn't say anything either so maybe it's me We definitely won't be coming back here again. read more

I'll keep this short and honest because this place doesn't deserve any more of my time. This is, without a doubt, the WORSE place I've ever been. The service was absolutely disgusting, and the overall experience was terrible. It was my first and definitely my last visit. Save yourself the time and money. don't waste either on this place. read more

I had some friends in town staying in Hollywood. We had gone to a soccer match and were starving. We decided to head to downtown Hollywood to find something. We stopped in at Tardes Calenas. We were greeted promptly and seated. The young lady took our order and brought the drinks quickly. We ordered empanadas to start- they were pretty good. My husband and I shared a bandeja paisa. The steak was good, the rest was a little bland. They had good music playing and seems like the night was just getting started. read more

I was having a little bit of difficulty figuring out how many stars to give this place. On one hand, I did enjoy my burger, although it was more rare than well done. I also enjoyed the ambience of sitting outside on a nice day. The food came pretty quick as well. On the other hand, the initial person that greets you at any establishment should have a smile on their face and a welcoming demeanor. This young lady had a B face and exuded attitude from the moment we walked up. This will kill my vibe immediately, even if everything else is great. I understand hiring attractive people as hostesses and servers to draw people in but if they have a shit personality, their looks mean nothing. Besides the attitude we received, the burger was too undercooked. We had to waive someone down to help us at the end to get our check, which was a different woman and she even had a bit of an attitude. These type of places need to do better when hiring people that are going to be face-to-face with the customers. I now see why this place only has 2 1/2 stars on Yelp. read more

The good: Great sound system. Good music. Attractive Colombian bartenders. The bad: The service, as noted by other reviewers, is simply terrible. The prices keep creeping up, and while the place used to be reasonably affordable, it is close to becoming expensive. If you ask for water, they will now force you to spend $4 for little bottles of cheap water. It's really a 2 star review, but it gets 3 here because, at this moment, it's one of the few remaining happening places downtown. This could change if the place continues like this. read more

If I was writing a review about the food I'd give it 5 stars. If it was about the music? 5 stars. Specially if you are a true salsa lover. But the service? I'd give it zero stars if I could. The hostesses seemed to be inconvenienced by our arrival, literally rolled her eyes at us when we joined two tables together to fit our picada and bucket of beer. Mind you, the table next to us had joined 2 tables but I guess for them not an issue but very much so for us? The music was phenomenal and legitimately the only reason we stayed. It was 3 of us. We ordered a picada and a bucket of beer while we waited, then a second bucket, but that was the last we saw of our waitress. We finished the second bucket, the picada, and waited for over an hour for anyone to notice us again. I even had to extend our parking for 30 minutes ($25 for the extra 30 min) because no matter who we asked to call our waitress she was nowhere to be found. Service staff were rude, not attentive, and provided what I think is the worst service I've experienced in YEARS. We could have easily left without paying, but we are NOT that kind of people. read more

Bad service. Walked up with drinks and was let in by service at the front and when we sat down and ordered new drinks security made us walk out. the new drinks were already made and paid for they sat at the bar and watered down by the time we could go back In to drink them. Rude bar tenders as well (posting this Thursday night) a fight also broke out at 3am photos of the guy knocked out below read more

We visited this restaurant a few times a loved it before. They have very nice music outside and it's fun.I've had their steak previously and was very good.This time ordered a streak and the meat was a bad cut and chewy, but it also had some weird taste that I couln't eat a lot.Their lemonade was amazing.But after that steak(we mentioned it to the waitress) I wouldn't want to come back for some time. read more

The music inside the dinning room was extremely loud, to the point I had to move outside just to enjoy my meal and be able to talk. The food was average. Also, they auomatically add 18% service charge but the bill still shows an extra line for "tips" which is confusing. read more

We are here when we landed because it was close to our hotel and one of the only places that were open at 1:30am that we knew of. The place seems cool inside we did not go in but it's a bar I believe they had live music. We sat outside and we ordered the lomo and chicken and everything was absolutely delicious. The service was not the greatest which why the 4 starts but that won't stop be from going back. read more

Came in for the first time on a Friday evening for drinks and it did not disappoint. They are located right in downtown Hollywood with plenty food and drinks options perfect for families to have dinner or to hang out late night. Parking can be a bit hard but the have street parking you just have to get lucky. We had a few shots, cocktails and beef empanadas and everything was great. Service was iffy , but not terrible. Overall I would comeback earlier for happy hour or dinner with friends. read more

We were not very hungry and so we just got a few dishes. To our surprise, they had a happy hour special going and so I tried the half-price margaritas. They were good. I ordered the Chicharron con Arepa. The chicharron was not crispy but tasted good. It came with a little white arepa. The arepa tasted fresh. The empanadas were good. I was able to order two chicken, two meat, and two cheese. The outside tasted great and crispy. My favorite one was the cheese one. The cheese was just melty and gooey. It was good. The tres leches had a funny taste to it. It tasted as if it had been refrigerated with something else and picked up the taste of it. The service was very friendly but slow. This restaurant has pay Street parking all around and it is easy to find. read more

Extremely Disappointing Service Despite Great Food and Atmosphere I've visited Tardes Caleñas twice, and the food is authentic Colombian dishes full of flavor. The music and atmosphere create a fun and lively experience, perfect for both dining and a night out. That said, the service was disappointing both times. The female staff seemed uninterested in assisting the female guests while male guests nearby received noticeably better attention. It felt like unless you're a man or clearly spending money, you might be ignored. After waiting too long without service at the table and the bar, I finally spoke up. A server not assigned to us helped, and offered to get a manager, but no one came. Tardes Caleñas has great potential thanks to its food and atmosphere, but the service needs serious improvement. I hope they address these issues because it could be a much better experience. read more

Definitely won't be back here. Waitress that attended me, my mom and boyfriend was extremely rude. She was trying to sit us at a really small table...when we asked her if we can sit at a bigger table, she got really annoyed and said there was no other options. The restaurant was literally empty with only one couple eating there, it's a huge restaurant. When we told her this, she rolled her eyes and found another table for us within a second since again, the place was practically empty. She added that after a certain time the restaurant becomes a club and if a bigger party came and they needed our table we'd have to leave or move...anyway, we ordered their sancocho de costilla which is like a beef soup and their bandeja paisa. The soup was great. The bandeja was ok, I've had better. Definitely won't be back, service was horrible which explains why they have 2 stars lol. read more

Order thru the uber app. Food was sooooooooooooooo terrible!! Stay away. It taste like leftovers

Pretty large venue with outdoor seating. Pretty quick place and good service! We enjoyed the seared fish, plantains, empanadas, and steak. Really really loved the seared fish as it was nice and crispy. Restaurant was pretty big with large space indoors as well. Defs a good deal/value and really really loved the food! read more

I love this place. I first discovered them from Uber eats and then realized how close they were to me and have been a regular since. This food is amazingly good and is my go to when I want that home cooked Spanish food. My staple meal is the steak with rice, red beans, and maduros on the side. If I'm feeling extra hungry I'll ask for an avocado. The natural juices are also pretty good but I'm almost positive it's not fresh maybe out of a package. They give you option to add in milk or water. Side note: the first time I dined in it was so loud I couldn't even formulate thoughts or hear the waitress. (They had a dj playing music inside music was great but was a bit much). in this photo, was the second time actually eating here in person and it was a good experience. They also have outside seating available. I believe this place is like bar/restaurant style so they do have more of a party feel on The Weekends and best of all they stay open till like 4 AM. Perfect for when you're hungry late night ! The service has been great so far. :) read more

We happen to come across this place with looking for a burger place. Because I was wanting to eat a burger the waitress suggested their Colombian burger and it was a great suggestion. I have to say that my burger was very good. My hubby ordered the arepa rellena. When we got the cuenta we were very surprised to see that it wasn't too much and very reasonable. Service was great music was nice, no complaints. I later realized this place only has a 3 star rating which really surprised me. I gave it a 5 because I loved everything! read more

Tasty Columbian Food and great service! We were in the area and decided to give this location a try. Don't let their 2 1/2 stars deter you from trying them out. The food was extremely tasty and the portions were also quite large for lunch. We tried the Picadas appetizer for two and shared with a group of 4 and I have to say there was not one item on the platter that didn't get a thumbs up from all of us. The ajiaco was also ordered by two in our party and they said it was delicious and filling. We also ordered the tostones with carne and a breaded chicken steak that did not disappoint. Their beer Aguila was also a crisp and smooth pair for the food. Finished it all off with a nice Colombian espresso. So if you are in the area and want to try something new with smiles and friendly service I suggest stopping in read more

We happened to find this restaurant on our way to eat somewhere else... needless to say we never made it to the other. We actually went back the same day. The food was great. Their empanadas were delicious. Their bandeja paisa had good flavor. The refajo was a bit disappointing, a lot of soda, not much beer. And their Aguardiente shots were over priced if you ask me. Our server Stefania was very attentive and wonderful, as the other servers. We plan to go back soon and try other dishes. read more

I've heard a lot about this place and decided to try it out. If you have a jealous girlfriend, do NOT come to this place since the hostess and waitresses wear revealing tops. They were very nice and attentive, considering how busy it was. My wife and I started with a bandeja paisa, which is a dish that contains a little bit of everything (steak, rice, beans, fried egg, plantains, and chicharrón). It was good. No complaints there. After we finished eating we were told that the club portion of the place started at 10 pm. You are required to buy a bottle to stay at a table, which is why I took off 1 star. Everything else was great! The music, the people, the service, and the salchipapa (snack) was amazing. I will be back, but I have to save up for the bottle first. read more

Tardes Caleñas Bar Restaurant - Table for two - Bars Near Me - Hollywood, Florida

The food was pretty good, authentic Colombian dishes. The service was the worst we were told to move to another table because the tables we were at were bottle service tables....we were there having a great time with friends and then had to pick everything up and move to another table with a horrible view. Waitresses had an attitude, and then at the end of the night they included their gratuity in the check....this is a horrible practice specially when the waitresses don't deserve a tip for being rude. Never going back, plenty of other Colombian spots with better food. Beware of the added gratuity added on their check. read more

If you sweat, your beer sweats, your table does not. Allow me to explain.... The moment you grasp an item in your hand to the moment it touches your lips, and finally, the table... is an intense moment for EVERY employee at Tardes Caleñas. They have trained for this moment. Their whole lives have been waiting for this very moment. Strapped with a white cloth, 27 straws, 11 napkins, and a radio in case there's an emergency.... the condensation from the beer will dissipate faster than an egg fries in the desert. Nothing shall be allowed on thy dinner table if it is not being consumed. But alas, the beef arepa you pick up, fill with sauce, and go to take a bite, may be your last from the ornate basket. Before you take that fateful bite, it has already been whisked away by a fiery well-built Colombian woman in sparkly butterfly jeans (not Forever21), but this is not a foolproof system. The sauce drips on to the table and a waitress (not yours, any-- its a free-for-all) dives in and cleans the sauce. What they anticipated to be one final bite after whisking the basket away turns out to be two! & this is where the system breaks. Speaking of breaks, no breaks for this posh crew of women as they work around the clock to ensure not a single droplet of water on your table will survive. 17 stars for effort. Time elapsed from sitting to leaving: 3 minutes. read more

I love Colombian food , This place needs new management. First they place is empty and still tables are dirty , multiple item on the menu are are out. ( like someone pointed out earlier review) ask for bandeja paisa replace bananas for French fries says she can't do it. I ask for her manager blond lady in pink shirt and jeans ( like she is going to the gym ) gives me the same answer I ask you don't do anything for your customer her answer was I don't do nothing. Food comes meet is dry like a rubber tires 1/8 inch tick Rice and beans were ok hard to mess that up. Waitress decided she was too good to take a complain never came back send buss boy to clean the plate and bring the check . On top off all that they included 18% gratuity to the check. Paid the check no problem Take ur money somewhere else , where they value your time and you hard earn cash. read more
