El Rincon De La Vieja Reviews
After moving into the neighborhood and spotting this place I decided to try it out a few times. The first time the empanadas tasted good but the price didn't seem fair for the size of the empanadas (compared to other Colombian spots I've tried, the empanadas sold here tend to be much smaller).The one time my fiance wanted to get a whole meal the rice tasted like it was reheated from the day before, the beans no seasoning, and the steak was pretty sad.

I ordered steak with onions rice. The steak and sauce was too salty, the rice was instant (like uncle bens) mixed with frozen vegetables i can tell from the way it taste.

Such a waste of money. $12 for a meal that I couldn’t finish, too bad i had to throw it away.

The place is extremely cluttered, I asked the lady questions about the Breakfast menu, and they don’t seem to have one. I asked her about the empanadas and she said it's $3 but they were the skinnest empanadas I've ever seen at a Colombian spot. I ended up getting a cheese bread which I often buy at other Colombian bakeries and this one was untasteful and dry. Too bad, I'm trying to find a reasonable local spot. Poor quality food.
