Las Arepas De Mama in Hempstead

prices have gone up but food still good.

Love this place. Ive been there several times and the food is always Bueno.

Arepas here are awesome! Recommend for someone looking for something quick to eat.

went here for lunch to try some columbian food. I definitely have limited exposure to Columbian food. The beef sandwiches we ordered were awesome perfectly toasted with big portions to boot. The fries were fresh and not stale compared to a lot of restaurants. The waitress was helpful, the wait was a little longer than usual, but it was definitely worth the wait. I would definitely come back here to try some other columbian dishes!

They serve big portions and for affordable rates. helpful staff. Keep up the good work.

This was once a great stop on my way from different jobs, however, this last time I discovered that they have changed management and have changed their cuisine style. Used to be a Colombian bakery and it is, sadly, no longer. If you want general Latin cuisine, not a bad spot for a cup of coffee and a meal, but if youre looking for authentic Colombian food, this is no longer that spot. Sorry.

Besides the great food the staff is wonderful thanks Arepas

Is worst then before, I ask for Ajiaco de pollo didnt have than ask for Sancocho, didnt have so finally i say give me Bandeja paisa they say ok n a soda they say ok, they took a long time to make it. Meanwhile the gave me a soda but no glass with ice and notice the table was grease so i say to the waitress to bring me a glass with ice n when she came i told her that to make a good tip they need better service do she turn around n say dont give me a tip, with n attitud. When tha food came. It wasnt to ma satisfaction and missing items. I will never come here again wlli bring my business some where else.

The worst customer service ever. Whoever is answering the phone on 08/01/2019 its the worst candidate to treat clients. We are a huge medical practice who ordered once and loved the food, however with the way this lady treated us today, we will never order from this place again and we will make sure everyone in the area know how awful we were treated.

Besides the arepas, you can get better service and food across the street in Mi Tierritas.

Great service, good food and affordable.

The food is good, I prefer this Colombian Restaurant to the other "famous ones" in the area. The prices are what you could expect about $15+/plate. The flavor of the food is tasty. My only complaint about this place is that the service is kinda iffy, the staff takes forever to come around your table to see if you need anything and you kinda have to go out of your way to get servers attention (so thats also annoyingbut overall I would recommend this restaurant.

Great location, really good food. Highly advisable. The meat was done perfectly on point. Full of flavor.

I ordered fried red snapper, which was almost $20. It took long time to get the food, the fish was served on top of seafood sauce that i was not expecting that kind of mix. Due to the long time waiting, I start eating...I found the fish inside was under cook and cold, seemed that the fish was frozen and the time of cooking was not enough to cook properly inside. Finally, the check came out for $27 instead of $20 dollars. The waitress response was " that was Marinero fish..why you did not give the plate back" Please, i was already waiting enough time to eat and pay for something that I was not asking for. Recommendation, take a picture of what you order, or keep the menu until you get the food. check back with the waitress to clarified what was order and also the price. I will not take the change again, there are more Colombian restaurants in the area or close by. that I am pretty sure you will get better service and food as well.De muy mal gusto fue ordenar pargo rojo frito, entiendase que frito es frito no encima de ninguna salsa o cosa humeda. La orden se demoro bastante y debido a la espera decidi empezar a comer, el pescado estaba frio y crudo. La cuenta de $27dollares por el plato, que aunque lo hallan recalentado para cocinarlo apropiadamente, fue un plato que no fue lo ordenado. La mesera se limito a decir "Era Pescado marinero y te comiste la salsa de seafood porque no la devolviste" Clarifique que lo que pedi fue Pargo Rojo FRITO.... Este tipo de malentendidos no deben pasar y que el consumidor pague por los errores del personal. NO recomiendo ir alla, y en caso de que lo hagan tome foto de lo que ordene y chequee que la mesera repita que es lo ordenado. Para que su experiencia no le indigeste el resto del dia.

good food but I just called to ask a question and place an order for pick up and the lady was not very pleasant at all :(

Empanadas are delicious! The food is great. The place is clean and the workers are so sweet! Dont forget to grab some dessert!!

My favorite Colombia restaurant in the area! The prices are great and the food is delicious. The setting is super casual, looks like its just a bakery, but they have an extensive menu of all Colombian plates. The daily specials are awesome and its all a bang for your buck.

Very good service as tasty food

Amazing food here! They offer so many selections and the service was great! They were very nice.

There new management took away lunch specials. And when It comes to flavor their hearts in the right place but it feels like its missing something.

A bussined without customers is nothing, the people there are rude. No vayan a este lugar

Nice place, food is delicious. I have had several dishes here. My favorite: Patacón de Reina and drink: Papelón.

Clean, and nice place. Delicious colombian food. Very nice people working there. Love the sangria.

Entraña a la Pobre, my favorite dish here. Very clean place. Very flavorful food.

Excellent food, but empanadas were not available. Large portions. Employees spoke English.

Love it food is very good and prices are reasonable the reason why I will bgive it a four star just because I order a extra water and the waitress told that she is sorry its already ring up. I told her thats not my problem dont wanted it period.

My favorite Colombian place of all time. Excellent food!

Friendly and marvelous place.Excellent food.

I had #60 Canastado Arepas, It was so delicious every thing was seasoned very well and the plantain leaf added it own flavor which was so delicous & I love me some Colombian food!!

The best empanada on the planet.. Ive had so many places that claim to be Colombian style but this place is the most authentic. I absolutely love the ají it tastes amazing the perfect level of spice and flavor adds to the magic of the empanada. I also love how they are so crunchy, and he carne comes with potatoes which blows my mind lol, on top of that 5 empanada was only 8 bucks!!! Ive spent almost twice that at other places. I wish I could eat these everyday, because I would 🙏.

Great Colombian food, best fruit with milk smoothies around with all your favorite traditional Colombian choices. Great menu and lots to choose from. Wish the restaurant itself had nicer chairs, tables and what not but I have been eating here for years and always bring friends and family for the experience!

Good food and service. Delmi was attemptive and efficient. Rest. does not provide bread or chips while waiting fr food.

Great place food is delicious breakfast lunch or dinner antojitos are amazing

My favorite go-to for Colombian food. Sorry Queens, but yall slacking. Blows all the older establishments whove let the quality of their meals go by the wayside.Flavor is legit. Portions are what youd expect. Prices are reasonable. Wait staff is sweet, could use better training.

Delicous, friendly, wide variety, clean and fast service

Owner is very nice and friendly, however the food is not up there to warrant a higher rating.In addition the red packed designed is not that eye inviting.

Great place to eat. Awesome food and the people are great!!!!!

One of the few places nearby to find great tasting arepas. Delicious food, variety dessert/pastry selections and great service at reasonable prices.

Delicious food and drink. The service is a great

The waitresses are pleasant the host and hostess are such attentive people. The FOOD is delicious and perfectly seasoned. Greaf place to bring your family a date and to have a celebration. The cocktails are smooth too.

Great rice and beans but the portions are not as great as other places in the area. The desserts I picked up were basically stale or close to it. Some parts of my order were also missing. Theres no street parking so youll have to park around the corner of the V&T supermarket. The staff is really friendly though.

Excellent food. Well made. Juicy steak, big menu. Lot of options. Unique flavor. Great price for dishes

The paisa platter, is worth it. Steak, egg, fried pork, rice, beans, avocado, arepa.Its big

Super great! Friendly waitresses who you can establish a conversation with. Exceptionally good food.

Authentic Colombian food and service is awesome

Good Colombian food and friendly service!

Waited about 30mins just to take our order and then another hr to bring it and got the order wrong

Wonderful service, huge plates for under $20, great music, clean and beautiful! I left full and with plenty of leftovers to share at home!

Delicious food and great service. Want to go back again!

Excellent place, food and people. I have been here 2 years now and quality is always the same or better, everybody is soooo nice and food is delicious and a lot literally
