My second time trying this place, food portions are big, we ordered; one appetizer and one entry, it was enough for two. About $80 to $100 per person. Steak tastes fresh though ordered temperature both times was not accurate. I prefere medium well but we got a medium rare, however I am not picky, it still was delicious, maybe a tad more seasoning would hit the spot. SERVICE: Ok FOOD: A solid 4 stars, Tastes fresh, shrimps where cooked PERFECTLY, I am not a big fan of tostones (flied plantain flats,) HOWEVER their tostones, I could eat all day. They are THE BEST tostones i have ever tried. They Guacamole is really good, and goes perfect with the tostones. ATMOSPHERE: Relaxed, welcoming, some light music might go very well.
My lunch at La Boina Roja was by far the best Colombian experience Iβve had so far, this Filet Mignon accompanied by the well-presented mashed potatoes was spectacular! The originality and the flavor, as well as the service by none other than the head waitress Maria Salazar. I ordered my meat well done, and as expected was pleased! I am definitely coming back here to eat a thousand times!
I've visited this restaurant many times and never had any issues. Love the food prior to this visit. However this most recent time, there were many things that went wrong and I probably won't return. -When you first walk in, there is an off-putting smell. The tables are sticky and feel unclean. -The red beans had no salt and lacked flavor. -I had to continuously ask the waitress to refill my water. Very inattentive. -It was cash only which was not disclosed until the check was brought out. This was new as they took credit card before. There is no apparent signage that states this and we weren't told anything when we entered the restaurant. -They automatically added 20% tip to the check without my knowledge. This is unacceptable as it should be at my discretion how much someone is tipped e
Today was my 2nd time going to la boina roja, i went with my gf 2 years ago and i recall never asking for a refill on water. we had to ask twice, the waiters where on their phones and were not attentive. And We werenβt told it was cash only nor was there a post about it. The beans could use more salt and seasoning. My beans that i personally make are 10 times better. I donβt appreciate having to also be charged for a to go containers. And my tip was also charged. I should be allowed to decide the tip i give you. Change those tables seriously! They are sticky and shaky. It will be a while before i go back again
Always an enjoyable experience! The lunch specials are a staple must try! The food is always great here. Bren coming here for the last 8 years and never disappointed. Come here hungry and enjoy these great portions of food. The prices are great for the portions! For lunch specials get there early enough or it may be pot scrapings. Menu online! Great for families or dining alone. Staff is friendly and tentative.
