I got a tip to try La Nueva Delicia and the Bandeja Paisa from a local. This was exceptionally prepared and delivered with friendly service. It is clear they have an abundance of passion for what they are creating. I'm glad I stopped in for this delicious meal.

Nice and cozy restaurant with good variety in their menu. The decor is very nice. The service was fast and friendly. The food was great and at good prices. Had the bandeja paisa and aguapanela, both of which were delicious.

#1 comfort food spot. I’m Colombian, this is the only authentic spot I’ll eat at. Also, it’s a plus that they’re super affordable. I have a sensitive stomach. Never have I had a problem with their food. Manager is the nicest lady; makes me feel at home. Best customer service ever. Call in advance and they’ll have your food ready.

I first ate here in 2012 with about 20 Colombian adoptees and have been back so many times despite not living in Queens. I thought it had a different name, but I recognize the decor. This place was amazing and we went around lunch time. Many of us have friends and family in Colombia and we loved this place so much. I remember going there with a friend and not really knowing for sure how to get there one time as we took the subway, but I was still able to locate it. During that weekend we also went to an overpriced place, attempting to be "upscale" and it was no where in the same category as this restaurant. They other place even ripped us on the bill because there were some many of us and they claimed we "must have bought alcoholic drinks". They ripped us off and a girl had to put it on her credit card to get the reservation and now the bill was about 300 to 375 more and we all knew what we ordered food wise and nobody drank I'm excess so we just all chipped in to cover this rip of. If that's not bad enough they had our event published in some magazine or newspaper. Don't waste your time with those places, go here and you will not be disappointed. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. Ciao.

It’s a really good place to eat, they are very nice I was waiting for someone to come and eat with me for 20 minutes and when I got there they said that I could stay for the 20 minutes and they yes and they gave me water and everything I asked, so this is a great restaurant.
