We went with the cheese bread and the mixed plate. You could have fed 4 grown men. This is where you appreciate true to ethnicity food. No messing...no pretending and no nonsense. I don't think I could have bought the ingredients, seasoned and cooked this for any less than what we paid. The table next to us ordered the fried fish...as full as I was...I wanted to taste that fish. La Finda Antioquena, thank you for a great experience. We will recommend this place and WE WILL DEFINITELY COME BACK. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

To begin the service is horrible. Nobody I mean we had two different people come up to our table…read moreand neither of them greeted us. The woman (Sandra) who came up to our table was to ask us to move to a smaller table. Mind you we sat there so we could watch the World Cup game as we waited and ate. She was so rude about it!!! Then the waiter to finally came to take our order was also rude. Didn't greet us, they lack manners. I liked one of the empanadas but they have a different name, other than that their food was bland tasteless. I came here with a Colombian friend who wanted to try Colombian food in LA she liked her plate but it was the most simple thing you could order, steak rice and beans. Would never go back here ever... oh also the place was filthy they should keep their tables and floors clean come on.

Sadly it has been years since i have had traditional food from my culture/blood. Sabor Colombiano…read moreallowed me to introduce my gf to typical and favored Colombian cuisine. The wait staff was so polite and professional. The empenadas could stand alone as en entree on their own. They were better than what my abuelita made. The exterior was perfectly crispy and the interior was dichotomous with the exterior and the filling was so flavorful and drizzling aji was game changer. I should have ordered 3 orders of the empanadas. I am also a huge fan of morcilla and their morcilla did not disappoint in the least nor did the yucca frita. I got the Plata Montanero/Bandeja Paisa and it reminded me of Bogota so much. Such a nostalgic meal for me and Sabor Colombiano prepared it perfectly. My gf got the Chuleta Vallecaucana and she loved it. We also ordered a couple fruit drinks that were so vibrant and flavorful. I wish there was at least one Colombian restaurant up here in Oregon. I guess we will have to find a reason to head down south when I am craving food of my people. The service was perfect and my only gripe was that the musician's speaker was way too loud but the servers allowed us to move to the farthest table which did help matters. Thank you again to the chefs at Sabor Colombiano for helping me introduce proper and authentic Colombian food to my gf.

Better than average! 3.5 stars!…read more Bistec a caballo - $20.99 This plate had sauteed steak in tomato and onion sauce served with rice, sweet plantain, pinto beans, and salad. I enjoyed some lengua en salsa from my friend's plate. The yucca here is good, too. We asked for hot sauce because everything that night needed some salt (and that's okay!) - our server provided an aji verde salsa, but it was more like a chimichurri because it didn't add much spice. My Colombian friends let me know that this was potentially insulting. There's a decent-sized parking lot, it was free on the Friday night that I went. It looks like there's normally an attendant. Seating is in a large covered outdoor area. I hear this is a fantastic environment for watching Colombian fubol matches. NOTE: this place is listed as "ORIGEN 57" on some maps apps.

When I first moved to Los Angeles, I lived in this neighborhood. I couldn't help but think that if…read moreI still lived in the area, there's no doubt I would be hanging out here. The bartender was friendly, and my spouse and I really enjoyed stopping in for a drink before heading to dinner. The vibe is relaxed with a Latino influence, and I especially liked the open-air setting. We're definitely spoiled with the weather here in Southern California. They do serve food, but since we already had dinner plans, we didn't try any of it. So this review is strictly based on our experience stopping in for drinks.

Ok this isn't a totally realistic review because I ate here in a large group, right after the…read moreMexico-England World Cup game and Mexico lost. The restaurant was pretty dirty and the bathrooms were DISGUSTING. I had to beg a restaurant across the street to use their restroom. But, the food we ordered was mostly really good and the service was very friendly and accommodating. We even had a birthday cake with us and they offered to put it in their fridge for us and didn't charge us any extra for cake plates. We had a large group so we ordered some drinks and the giant sampler platters. Everything on them was really good except the chicken wings and pork belly were a little dry and nothing special. Pretty meh. But I loved everything else. The other thing that I don't personally love is that they have a have DJ playing music and talking as well as large tvs playing sports, so the restaurant is really loud. Like you can't hear the person right next to you. If that's your vibe, then check it out but I felt really overstimulated by the time we were done and couldn't wait to get out of there. I'm glad I got to try Escala but I don't know that I'd seek this place out again, unless it just happened to be convenient. Parking sucks in this area and there are so many amazing restaurants in K-town. I'd rather keep exploring.

What a surprise! My friend and I visited for restaurant week…read moreand I'd give it a 9/10! The drive there was a bit iffy due to location but surprisingly the street that the restaurant is on was clean and felt pretty safe! I chose to park on the street but I'd advise to valet ($15) for safety purposes. We walked into a concrete built up newish area that had a brewery and another Michelin rated restaurant across the courtyard. The entire area was inviting! The restaurant felt like we took a dinner vacation to Cabo which was recipe for a relaxing evening! We ordered from the restaurant week menu which for us consisted of Ceviche, Guac w/delicious fresh tortilla fresh chips, whipped beans, snapper, bbq chicken, empanadas and basque cheesecake. All were great!.. we just wanted a larger portion of everything! I'd recommend and will definitely go again! I love restaurant week!

Went back to Dama for their Dine LA menu so I thought I'd post so you don't miss out. For starters…read moreyou get GUACAMOLE, WHIPPED BEANS AND A CEVICHE TOSTADA. Yes, you get all three so no hard choices have to be made. My first impression of the beans was that they were no biggie but last night they were fire! I almost ordered a plate to take home. You have been warned the ceviche tostada has a kick but squirt some lime on it if you need to and you will survive. As for the guacamole, it's guacamole - need I say more? For my entree I went with the snapper, which came with escabeche, lime, pineapple, cilantro, green onion, and chili rub. In the past, I've strictly stuck to their small plates and I feel that's still the way to go. Nothing wrong with my snapper, I just love all the other little plates more. I went with one other person and only one piece of cheesecake came out. Supposedly it was a bigger slice but looked like an average size to me. This cheesecake is made with manchego cheese so don't expect an overly sweet treat. I did enjoy it. But, I also ordered their flan that is only available in August and I found that to be better than the cheesecake. Get both as one is limited edition. We also got the fried chicken tacos. We were told they were pretty spicy but I felt the ceviche was spicier. They were tasty but did not live up to their oxtail tacos they used to have. Also, squirt some lime on these tacos - you're welcome. This is one of my fave places to dine during peak weather season. Go check them out. Tip: street parking is available if you get there at 5 otherwise valet is $15. Trust, you do not want to park your car anywhere other than that one block where the restaurant is located.

Our food arrived in a timely manner considering they were pretty full and the time we went. They were pretty busy with many people watching the World Cup games at their restaurant enjoying the ambiance. I ordered a Chicken Arepa (La Rubia) and my friend ordered La Misionera; everything was delicious!!! We got to try their empanadas and pandebono which were soft in the inside and crispy on the outside. Their appetizers had the perfect combo of crunch and flavor. The empanadas and pandebono were my favorite, I took some home to my family and grabbed a few more for the weekend :)

The vegan plate had black beans, white rice, plantains, and a side salad. The bandeja paisa had beans, a fried egg, chicharron, steak, rice, plantain, and chorizo. The meat was perfectly grilled but the chicharron was a little tough but still good. The vegan plate had much flavor -- the beans were tasty and the rice fresh. They were very generous with the plantains. The complimentary tortilla chips and salsa were so fresh and delicious. The spinach empanada was a little tough - it was crispy but there was less spinach than I would have expected and the cheese in it wasn't really melted either. Overall the food was very fresh and delicious. Parking can be tricky bc their lot fits only 3 cars. We parked a couple blocks in the neighborhood. Front of the store parking also seems limited. Service was kind and efficient. Food came out in less than 5-10 minutes. Place is well decorated and has nice seemingly traditional decor inside.
