Las Delicias de La Abuela

Very interesting place. The service was a little slow even though they were not at all busy but in general positive feelings. I usually don't eat empanadas but let me tell you about the ones I had here, OMG, I kept making yummy noises the whole time. It's a little expensive but totally worth it. Oh, and FYI this restaurant is located right next to Buford Highway Farmers Market.

Amazing experience- always! Our go to spot anytime in Atlanta serving authentic Colombian food. Great atmosphere. Monica was our server & was phenomenal from start to finish!

My experience at this location was outstanding. After a stop by from the mall I decided to come here and was seated in less than 2 minutes. The service at this location is amazing! Much better than any other restaurants. When I came to the restaurant, I was greeted by one of the employees, or shift managers if I can recall correctly, asking me to sample their new drinks. They were delicious but I decided to stick with the Mango smoothie. It was very fresh and delicious. This was something I would get at a Colombian restaurant. The service was not only amazing, a server named Maria or something similar to her name was very kind and she even gifted me and some friends some snacks at the end. You'll see many employees doing what exactly like Maria is doing here. And be aware, there are some employees passing down some pastries or other food that will hit for a reasonable price. I tried the pastries and it was delicious. Now let's talk about the atmosphere of the building, it looks very astonishing, clean and it's even active too. It holds such a beautiful atmosphere, something I don't see in some other local restaurants. They also were playing live music during the experience. I didn't really mind it since that didn't bother me. They also had a big TV screen in the restaurant too. The paintings and the murals give a sense of beauty. The food, I got the #24, the meal was very delicious. The taste was something that was made out of pure love from the heart. The rice was tasty, nothing special. The chicken was a little tough, and that was my only problem but I decided to stick with it anyway by cutting it altogether. The plantains, avocados and the other sides of the dish were very delicious too! The plantains were my favorite too. Overall of the experience - 10/10. I will come back here again.

The atmosphere is great! The service was even better from Sofia! Make sure to ask for her! The food tasted really good! We enjoyed our time dining in! Will definitely come back next time we're in the area!

Visiting the area from NC to renew a passport at the Colombian consulate. I just knew there’d have to be a good authentic Colombian restaurant somewhere nearby. I wasn’t wrong and this place was it! Food was absolutely delicious. The menu was long so there’s much to choose from. It said water was $2 so I just ordered a drink. The jugo de mango was the best I’ve had in the states. Not watered down and tastes fresh. They do provide ice water though it just wasn’t an option in the menu. I would still recommend trying the juices. My husband had the perros calientes. It was very large. It had pineapple sauce and a quail egg which not every Colombian place does. It was pretty good and even too much for him to finish. I had the lengua en salsa. Everything was perfect. So tender and not gamey. The yuca, rice and plantain was cooked perfectly. 0 complaints. The oblea romántica was just the perfect postre to round off the meal. I haven’t had one so good since we were in Colombia. At the end of dinner they brought out fresh pastries. We bought one but I was stuffed. Even eating it hours later it was still warm and so freaking good I couldn’t stop eating it. It really did just come out of the oven. I feel lucky we didn’t pay and leave before they came out Service was decent. No rush to get us out of there. Even servers that were not ours would periodically check on us if they saw us looking around. Honestly the service could have sucked and I’d still give a 5 star from the food alone. This place is amazing. 100% recommend to try it out if you get the chance.

Daniel Bravo gave very attentive service. The food was delicious highly recommend if you’re at least within 100 miles. It’s well worth the trip.

We found this place just several months and this is our second time visiting, wow this is one amazing place , the food could not be better, tasty, filling for sure and big portions , the ambiance is more like a place you would find in Colombia where. locals eat there, no fancy at all but what a tasty food.

Being honest! This place was a very good experience, the environment was very nice. LOVED our server Juan David, he was the best server ever, thanks for the experience, lovely experience, he was coming to our table every 3 min to make sure that we were good, food, that we were happy, he is definitely one of the reason why I'm coming back, Juan David was so kind, polite, understandable, amazing guy. Thanks for everything, food was good. Thanks for everything❤️

This is a great place to eat, plus have a good time With family and friends love this place Be careful on the extra thing they offer you I went there for a dinner with my wife spent over a 100 dollar for two ....

Place was popping. Since it's our first time we decided to be conservative and ordered a variety plate. The meat (steak, sausage, blood sausage, bacon) was unfortunately too dry for our taste.

Las Delicias de la Abuela is a casual restaurant serving great comfort Columbian food. It is located in Doraville, next to the Buford Highway Farmers Market. It is a mile from the Dorvaille MARTA station, (but you can also take the 124, 35, 20, or 10B buses). Las Delicias de la Abuela has the casual vibe of a family reunion, even equipped with picnic tables. There are televisions everywhere, and I understand live music. I was greeted and seated immediately. Food and beverages came out very quickly. The staff were extremely friendly, happy to make recommendations on food and beverages, and forgiving of my awkward Spanish skills. Maleja recommended the blackberry juice, Carne de la Parrilla (grilled skirt steak), and passionfruit mousse, and I added an order of arepas. The blackberry juice was tasty and not too sweet. I took it home, and it mysteriously disappeared before I could reopen the refrigerator (apparently my husband enjoyed it as well). The Carne a la Parrilla was perfectly prepared, very juicy, and flavorful. It was so cravable, I ate the whole thing with no regrets. The steak came with two sides, and I selected the salad and sweet plantains. The salad, which was actually guacamole, was surprisingly tasty. The avocado was mild and creamy and well blended with lime juice, tomatoes, and onions. I don't eat guacamole. But I tore this up! The plaintains were good, but other items were memorable. The arepas reminded me of a circular, not as sweet, version of a corn cake my Granny used to make. The passion fruit mousse is for those with a sweet tooth. But it was super tangy and creamy (another dish I didn't mean to completely finish but I couldn't stop eating it). I can't wait to go back, as I want to come for breakfast. There are also so many lunch and dinner items I want to try, including the empanadas and margaritas.

I was looking for good food and affordable, this place offers all. There's a homemade soup before meal and drink all for $9.99 Its a deal

In the last few weeks they have increased prices and reduced portions. Been going for 2 years but that ends now.

I really like to recommend this place, if you looking for authentic Colombian food, this is the best in town. My server Paola was great , she is very nice and always with a positive attitude and smile, she is beyond knowledge of the menu and ready to help you with suggestions.

Fantastic!!!!!! I loved this! I was famished after leaving the airport so I checked for top rated on door dash and it is obvious why! The food was great!

I LOVE this place and never knew I didn't review it. I go here a lot. The food is amazing!! I always get their Bistec a Caballo and I'm never disappointed. The egg is cooked to perfection. Runny, but but not too runny. The plantain is so sweet and also cooked to perfection, along with the tostada. Crunchy, but not too crunchy. Then theirs the rice and steak. The steak has so much flavor and it pairs great with the onions and tomatoes that are put on top of them. Theirs nothing bad I could say about this place. The music played is always good, it can get crowded at times, but I don't usually go on those days. I believe they play music on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday as well. My friends steak was also cooked to perfection( medium rare) lol. It was so good and juicy. The service is always great. And everyone is nice! 10/10

Food is wonderful. Agua Fresca, steak, chicken and the tres leches is to die for. I would highly recommend going on a weekday as on the weekend it is very busy.

Amazing!!! EVERYTHING was amazing! Food is traditional Colombian food! Maleja was our server and she did an outstanding job dealing with a group of 28... yes, 28 people who came in with little heads up. The environment is just right! Background music is not overbearing, and the place is enjoyable to sit and have a group chat.

The Food is excellent and worthwhile to order. They got all the tipical stuff you get from Colombia but rather pricey. The service is great too. The bad thing that really bothered me is that the decore indoors is horrible. To me it seems that they have no care of how the place looks and feels. Its just trashy with cheap seating. The parking area is littered with trash too. There is no reason for them to have place looking that way. Their total gross sales maybe upwards enough to have capital to fix up the place. In response to business: Lo siento q tuve q calificar el restaurante como lo puse. No hay escusa de tener el sitio sin buen ambiente (la musica esta buena!) en como se ve o q halla reguero en el parqueadero. Los asientos no deben de ser como lo tienen.

If you're looking for authentic, Colombian food with great service...look no further! We were greeted warmly as soon as we walked in. The ambiance is very relaxed and the wait staff is very sweet and attentive. We really enjoyed the cumbia music playing, it makes for a lively dining experience. Our server, Maleja, was wonderful! Now, the best part...THE FOOD!!! My mother is Colombian and it was like sitting at my Nona's table. My mom ordered the "Bandeja Paisa" and it did not disappoint! I enjoyed my usual arepa de queso and it was delicious. We finished off our meal with a Pastel de Guayaba y Queso, they were made fresh and delivered to our table from a cart. Overall, this is THE BEST Colombian restaurant in Atlanta. We will be back!

Really authentic!!! The food was excellent and the mixed drinks were huge!! Casual and fun environment. I will be back.

BEST COLOMBIAN FOOD IN ATLANTA ! Great menu with something for everyone and their prices are affordable.

Yes, just go. Everything we've had from here has been delicious. Portions are a good size, usually enough to share with another person. I like the indoor picnic tables, too.

Food was bomb & service was great! I can't complain about anything. It was crowded when we arrived but we were seated within 5 minutes.

The place is soooo delicious!! But my problem is the waiters! They are nice but they will add a tip and won't ask you about it. And if you ask them about prices they get upset like hellooo I'm paying for my food and I wanna know how much I am paying!!! Literally!!

Wonderful staff, very polite and professional. The food was excellent quality and comes out quickly. Nice lunch experience.!!

Food is no longer a 5 more like a 3 , service is excellent and Ambiance was nice. Due to food quality we may not try again. ..

The food here was pretty solid. I had a fruit juice that was a little too sweet, but still good. My boyfriend ended up getting steak, and I got a bunch of different side dishes. My favorites by far were the plantains and the arepas! Probably some of the best arepas I've ever had. The inside of the restaurant is super colorful. They even had a live band towards the end of the night! The bar looks cool as well. Recommend if you're in the area.

Outstanding Colombian cuisine, cozy, hispanic music, family oriented and the service was outstanding. If you're ever on the Atlanta, Georgia area, and are feeling that need to eat some Hispanic (Colombian) cuisine, this is a place you must visit. I will definitely come back to try other entrees on the menu!

I have been client for this restaurants for many years, But lately customer service has deteriorated. I have to think twice before to call there to place an order, because I don't know if I will be lucky to get a person able to take an order with respect and patient. It's impossible that If I am asking for a steak and salad (lettuce, onion and tomato) they just said: "We don't sell salads and done". The customer service in a restaurant is very important to improve too.

Las Delicias de La Abuela was the first time I had Columbian food and it definitely won't be the last! I started out with a mojito that was strong, beautifully decorated, and even came with a lollipop! I ordered my food right after my drink, and I'm not kidding when I saw my food came out 5 minutes after that! My meal came with a HUGE piece of chicken, rice, beans, side salad, and soup. It was fresh and so delicious, almost like Abuela was in the back cooking it herself. I had so much food that I had left overs for 2 days lol. I'll definitely be back to try more things on the menu!

Top tier fried plantains. The staff is attentive, and they have good mango juice. Nice and air conditioned in here

Once again the best Saturday brunch! Alexa always takes care of us , food is awesome

The food was so good I didn't even get to take a picture but it's rare me or my kids clear a plate and we did. The staff was extremely friendly. Our waiter Monica was very helpful when it came to the menu and any questions we had. This is the second time we've come and both times we've had a great experience. We'll def be coming again with more friends and fam.

The people were friendly and the patacones con queso are almost as good as we remember in Colombia. My dish, the sobrebarriga, was not what I had hoped it would be, but my expectations were probably high from recently visiting Bogota and trying it a few times there. My boyfriend enjoyed the bandeja paisa, especially the chicharrón. It's conveniently located right next to the Buford hwy farmers market, so next time we stop in it'll probably be for a quick snack, like the patacones, before shopping.

It has been almost 8 months since the last time I visited this restaurant. Since I had such a great experience the first time. I decided to try it again. They did not disappoint. Like the first time, we were seated immediately, event though it was busy. The staff was pleasant and the food (most important part) was amazing. I had to try something different from the menu and I'm glad I did. Try the Bandeja Montanera, my new favorite dish. We also had the Costillas Ahumadas, very good. This place is a little far for me, but worth the trip.

Went on a Tuesday evening for dinner and we got seated right away. The restaurant is a large open space with a lot of table and picnic tables available. There is a bar towards the back of the restaurant which was a little busy. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful, and the decor was nice. The menu is large but some of the dishes were not available because they were only available on the weekends, so that was a little disappointing. The yuca frita was yummy and the arepa de queso and de cholo were very good. The carne asada and churrasco were also tasty. The fish was large and filling. We tried the pasión fruit juice and it was very sweet. I will certainly be coming back here.

Este es el Lugar que usualmente visitamos cuando venimos a Atlanta. Usualmente tenemos una buena experiencia, sin embargo hoy salimos bien desinflados. Primero que todo no había Café! Si restaurante colombiano y no cafe . Pedimos sopas y de 3 que pedimos sólo nos dijeron que tenían 1. No avena . El Resto de la comida que pedimos estuvo rica. El chico que nos atendió también fue atento y amable.

Fantastic family restaurant! We went for a birthday celebration, and we were so happy. We'll be back!

Great food! Great service!! Empanadas were so good. First time eating Columbia food. Definitely coming back.

If you want, authentic Mexican food, try this restaurant the service is not the best As I am not a native Spanish speaker, and this restaurant does not care to hire people to cater to none Spanish people so I will say that however, I've never had any complaints with regards to the food

Overpriced. I wouldn't mind paying if the food and service were good; unfortunately, neither was good.. especially the service.. if you are looking for traditional Colombian food and friendly people, this IS NOT THE PLACE.

A FORTUNATE FIND... A friend and I wandered into this place after shopping because it happened to be in the same parking lot where we'd been browsing. Well, how lucky were we?!?!? This place is FABULOUS. We were there on a weekday, so it was not especially crowded. My sense it this place goes off on the weekends because, in addition to great food, they are mixing great drinks. They also apparently offer special dishes on Friday and Saturday. FYI, they have a dessert case full of chilled treats; alas, we were unfortunately too stuffed to sample. Décor wise, the interior is colorful, but casual. I would consider this a family friendly bar and grill that happens to serve killer Columbian food. Regarding what was so good, we genuinely loved everything we tried. The meats were exceptionally well prepared. One of us chose the flank steak based the recommendation of our server who promised it was tender and it did not disappoint. Spectacularly juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. While I cannot speak the the authenticity of the Columbian fare they offer, I really cannot recommend this place highly enough. Great quality ingredients perfectly prepared and deftly seasoned - absolutely worth a visit!

I love this place! I love the size - it's huge, spacious, with benches and tables for large parties. There is a bar in the back for the adulters who want to be a little more grown and sexy. They have empanadas and all the classic dishes that my husband from Miami (via Colombia) loves. I always get the steak because it is so full of flavor and cooked perfectly to temp. I am just getting takeout after work today. If you have never been it is a must do in metro Atlanta for the best Colombian food and good atmosphere we've experienced

Excelente ambiente, comida y Servicio de lo mejor un lugar muy familiar nuestra mesera muy profesional se llama Astri. Pronto regresáremos.

Note: This is a Colombian restaurant. It is NOT a Mexican restaurant. We came here for dinner two weeks ago on a Friday night. Parking was readily available in the free parking lot around Las Delicias de La Abuela restaurant. We walked into Las Delicias de la Abuela, and were met by the host just inside the door, and loud music being played over the speakers. He walked us past an area that had a lot of tables that had "Reserved" signs on them, and took us to one of the multitude of wooden picnic benches that could seat 6 adults comfortably (well, as comfortable as they could be at a wooden picnic table). The dining area is a very big open space filled with a lot of tables. The restaurant was at about half capacity when we arrived, and it was very noisy. While we looked at the menu via the QR code available at the table, our server stopped at our table, took our drink orders and answered some questions of ours about some menu items. I ordered the Costillas Ahumadas, which included a half rack of smoked pork ribs, fries, and a sweet plantain with melted cheese. R ordered the Bandeja Montanera, which included beef steak, beans, rice, chorizo sausage, blood sausage, pork belly, fried egg, salad, sweet plantain and corn cake. OH MY! The meals were big and filling - so filling that neither one of us could eat everything! The meat on the ribs were tender, not fall-off-the-bone though, and had a very good slightly sweet bbq sauce. Fries were crispy, and I liked the flavor of the plantain, but without the melted cheese. R said his meal was good, but also said that he'll probably not order it again because it was just too much food. Our server was good through most of our meal, but then he started doing tasks throughout the restaurant toward the end of the meal, and it was kind of hard to flag him down with the loud music and the fact that he was way on the other side of the restaurant. There's a pretty big bar toward the back of the restaurant. We plan on coming back to this restaurant so we could try a lot more items on the menu. Just about everything looks good and this restaurant serves up big portions.

Great authentic restaurant with nice vibe. Food was killer, very flavorful! I've never had the traditional Columbian dishes but the steak they cooked was really nicely seasoned and served up on a hot plate and was cooked perfectly

Beautiful place and Monica was a sweetheart my mom and i love it here the food was really good!!!... the service was 10/10 me encanto Monica te veremos Denuedo Gracias :)

Maleja was awesome!!! Drinks were great food was perfect. Alexa makes the best drinks.

The place is very busy I came on Tuesday lunch time. It was a full house. I ordered bistec platter that comes with rice, egg, sweet plantain, fried plaintain, salad. It was pretty good. Just I am not crazy about the sautéed tomatos and onions on top of the bistec. I prefer bistec just grilled. Perhaps something I should have clarified when ordering. Anyhow still good food.

Excelente comida, y atención de su mesera Monica, deliciosas piñas coladas y una bandeja paisa, sin igual

Recomiendo a la mejor bartender de Atlanta, se llama Alexa y brinda el mejor servicio al cliente mientras prepara las bebidas más deliciosas !!!!

We came we saw we conquered. Delicious food and awesome service had some delicious plantains, chilli, steak was phenomenal, came with rice, eggs, avacado, lettuce, tomatoes, delicious with a french kiss

I've been here with friends a few times and it's always delicious. Expect good but very loud music. I love the empanadas, arepas, and mango juice, and I trust that anything else I try here will be great. Next time I'm gettin the ajiaco. This time, our server Monica was very nice and attentive, telling us all the best things they had to offer.

The food is really good. You really get your money worth. If you can finish your plate, you are trying too hard. Live music every Friday night.

The food was amazing and the service was stellar. I highly recommend everyone to come to LA ABUELA
