Aunque es muy rica la comida de almuerzo ejecutivo, el plato a la carta me pareció muy costoso para la comida que sirven, pues la carne de cerdo estaba muy asada y, o las papas a la francesa estaban fritas en un aceite recalentado o no estaba fresca la papa

Great place for lunch, very tasty food.

Excellent food and service!!!

The food was good and the portion was quite big, so it's great if you like to eat a lot. The price is reasonable and the service in general was good. It's not a BYOD place

It's always a great time at Donde Mi ama, a trendy Colombian food eatery. The staff, the entire staff, security included iz always friendly and welcoming and beautiful, men included. The food is DELICIOUS! Everytime. Calamari is a great starter although it can be a little crunchier, the season that they use is similar to a cajun spice. When the food is presented it is wrapped in plastic to cover from the servers carrying from kitchen to table. I also had the Sancocho with beef and chicken. It came with a side of white rice and mixed salad all for $10. The only hiccup we had was with a burger we ordered. The description didn't mention ham slice and we had to have the burger remade because of an allergy. They remade it without a problem and apologized. We packed our burger to go and were given lids for our sauces. The gratuity is automatically added still double check but we always leave a little extra for the great service.

I love this place ! Such a traditional place to eat Colombian food and of course …. GUARO!!! There’s a new Aguardiente called CUMBE AGUARDIENTE, and I enjoyed the cocktail they have on the menu called “MARACUMBE” . This is a must try! Amigos vayan a probar el coctel “MARACUMBE” - solamente en Donde mi Ama ! Muy buen lugar

Went last night. Is a small place, but cute. We were a large group and they were able to accommodate us. At first the service was a little slow, because the night shift was coming in and they were changing. -Food: it was good nothing crazy. The portions were perfect enough for one person -appetizers: I didn't like the empanadas...it had more potatoes than anything . The chicharon was delicious -drinks:the weren't strong. And the prices were $12 and up -cleanness: the bathrooms were always clean while we were there -ATMOSPHERE WAS THE CHERRY ON TOP.

Best Colombian food I've tasted in a while. I live in NYC and coming to Elizabeth, NJ for this is soo absolutely worth it! Not a fan of their "Soda-Beer but all the food was bomb! I highly recommend it.

I ordered a picada and it didn’t disappoint, the picada has all types of meats and it was delicious. Service was amazing and the atmosphere was very good also as everyone was watching a game.

Amazing bandeja paisa chicharrón! Best chicharrón we’ve had even compared to our dining in Columbia! Was to a perfect crisp without the gooey fat texture. The beans are on point, ordered a side to go and everyone was fighting for it the next day! The skirt steak was well seasoned, perfectly cook to well done BUT tiny as if for the kids menu! The combo appetizer was great, our daughter ate two of the big empanadas and called dibs on the 3rd one to take home . Drinks can be VERY pricey especially if you order up on the tequila like Don Julio with margaritas or the recommended passion drink. Definitely look at pricing if on a budget or don’t want to pay $18 for a drink. Small Sangria pitcher is worth it as it wasn’t watered down with ice but they don’t do single servings. Since gratuity is included be prepared to flag staff when you want something. Make a reservation for weekend night time as we were told our table was reserved more than 2 hours before the time of the RSVP and given a kind reminder with a paper on the table while dining. They even customized an order for our daughter of a fried egg and fries which I’ve never experienced at a restaurant and was cool.

Went for lunch. Staff are polite and attentive! Food is made to perfection. Excellent for outdoor seating on a cool fall day. Would received 5 stars but they didn't have empanadas con guayaba con queso available. Guess I have to go back..haha

Salad

Había visitado el sitio en el pasado reciente, pero la experiencia de hoy 2 de noviembre 2025 fue terrible, el hígado frito no a la plancha como lo ofrecieron, durísimo y seco, las papas estaban viejas y duras, la pasara en salsa Alfredo, era una base de bechamel fría y de Alfredo solo el nombre, la limonada estaba agria, en fin, lástima queríamos disfrutar de una buena comida casera pero fue todo fiasco.

Basic. Cramped. Noisy.

bad service,they don’t pay attention to you,nice food, it’s a bar, not for family!!!i had to pay taxes of 21 dollars, i don’t recommended,the drinks were not even cold.

The food and the service has gone downhill since two years ago that we went there. The food came out before she got the drinks to the table! The frozen margarita was not frozen. Apparently, they didn't know what a frozen margarita is. And tasted horrible. My sister didn't drink it. Steak was plain and tough. The salad I asked to be meat free, (she came back to asked me twice) still came out with ham in it. We will not be coming back. I rather go to Chingon for better food and drinks.

I ordered a Picada to go (about $70) for a private gathering. I was embarrassed when they opened the aluminum tray and it was a bunch of potatoes, a few pieces of chicken and chicharrón that looked more like left overs, and about 3 small pieces of beef fat. I called them next day to complaint and they said and did nothing. Will never recommend or go to this place again!

sam

It was really disappointing. I ordered a Chuleta, which I choose the side of white Rice and papa Amarilla, the chuleta didn’t taste like anything no season nothing and it was really dry!! The layer of flour was really thin they didn’t even try which is the empanizado was not even an empanizado!! If you are selling something not Colombian authentic don’t over charge your guest!!

Elizabeth Medina

The atmosphere was nice but the furniture was too close. The food was not prepared well, we had wet lettuce , unseasoned soup, freezer burned ice cream and the churros were not cooked in the middle. The servers were not attentive and didn't seem too interested in the feedback provided . I do not recommend this local spot. Drinks are okay but not worth the cost .

I ordered Sancocho through doordash at 1 am just coming back from work. It was the only place open that served this kind of food at this hour. The delivery was fast and I had no issues with the door dash driver or anything. My issue is when I received the food. I opened the bag, took out the sides (rice and salad) and when I pulled out the sancocho, there was a date on the lid 12/09/2023. Now, today is 12/17/2023. Can you imagine my shock when I saw the date. I wondered if that was the expiration date or that was when it was made, but either way, sancocho doesn’t last past 4 days and if frozen 3-4 months. But the sancocho was really hot, so they either microwaved it to the extreme or did something. To me, if it was regular soup like noodle soup that didn’t have pork and beef, I wouldn’t have been that concerned and ate some, but the fact that it had pork freaked me out. Now, I already complained to doordash and they returned my money, but I’m extremely worried about other clients that ate sancocho today. Did they get expired food too or was I just a 1 in a million. I attempted to call the restaurant 2x but it was sent to voice mail, and even thought it was now 2 am they don’t close until 3, so they should have staff there still. But please, for the restaurant staff, double check your food before you serve it. This is not only disgusting to serve but extremely dangerous. Someone can become extremely ill and end up in the hospital. Please check your food.
