This was my second time trying colombian food. I think i selected the wrong options. My fried green plantain was super oily and drenched in oil and very bland. Empanada was good but also oily. Salsa was watery. Should try grilled options next time.
Big portions. Fast service. Value for money

It was our first time trying the Colombian food recently at @clubcolombiaaustralia & we truly loved it. .
.
Starting with their hospitality, service & interiors, everything is Colombian & very authentic for that matter.
At your tables you are presented with a Colombian cultural hat which you can wear while enjoying your food - getting into the whole theme of the place. .
.
Hence, starting with some red & white wine base Sangria was just perfect.
.
.
Coming to food, mostly everything is gluten free and offers a good variety. We tried
- Plantain base starters with various topping - Corn shell patty with 3 different fillings - The traditional chorizo, arepa & potato for entrees - For mains we called the most famous & traditional Colombian dish having an assortment of 9 different amazing elements - & the Latin American grill with chicken breast rolls filled with ham & cheese
.
.
Everything was wonderful & we were glad that we actually visited @clubcolombiaaustralia & had an amazing experience .

4.5We revisited Club Colombia tonight to try out some of the fresh items in their menu since our last visit. Still frequented by plenty of Colombian expats this venue and the new menu has held true to the traditional but also offers a touch of fusion to with the Colombian take on Nachos, burgers and an ultra flexible grill menu. We started with a Nachos made with traditional house made corn arepas. There was generous beans and mince under a thick layer of mozzarella, smashed avo and corn. For mains we mixed and matched our proteins and sides on the Latin grill menu. I opted for a super tender porthouse with and a chimichurri sauce and sides of salads and mash while KD went for the chicken with a cheese and ham filling. We both enjoyed the grill and would recommend for anyone who want to ease themselves into Colombian cuisine. For a post dinner sweet treat I finally got to try the cheese and hot chocolate which is exactly as it read. Dark Colombian chocolate with cloves and cinnamon and lumps of a mild cheese to drop in and melt. Very common in Colombia but I’ve not seen this anywhere else in Melbourne. Great to be back again tonight. Thanks to the team at Club Colombia for having us back.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Previous ReviewTonight’s Colombian experience started the minute we walked in the door, the aromas, the music, the decor, wow an explosion of colour and cheer everywhere. We started with a Jarra (jug) de Refajo (house blend of beer and soft drink), smells like beer, tastes like soft drink, a winner in my book!There is a real variety of patrons in here, from the homesick Colombians to the general populous all lovers of Colombian food. The party like atmosphere kicked off tonight with some live music.Neither of us had tried traditional Colombian food before and we were advised that the tastes here were authentic and not modified for the Australian audience. A perfect chance to taste some authentic food without the airfare. We started with the Pumpkin and ginger soup with crispy potatoes had a nice ginger kick and a lovely thick consistency a great way to warm up on a cold night.(Papa criollo con suero costeno) Yellow potatoes cigars with Columbian sour cream, these fingers of fried potatoes where delicious, more dense than a chip and where served with a smokey tomato sauce. Patacon con hagao was like a big plantain chip with guacamole, salsa and sour cream. A great crunch to go with the beer.For mains we had the cazuela arriera de frijoles which was a bean based dish served with pork, chorizo and rice, a great dish full of flavour I just kept going back for more and more. Sobrebarriga chorreada del altiplano cundiboyacense) Flank steak with sauce, cooked with cheese and cream and served with mini fried yellow potatoes on the side. This steak was pull apart tender in parts and a bit firmer in others but the flavour was good and the stringy cheese topping magic.We tried a traditional recipe from the Colombian pacific coast which consisted of fish fillets, prawns and was served with a subtle coconut milk sauce with a house salad. Delicate flavours of the sauce allowed the flavour of the seafood shine through.For dessert we shared the Tres leches cake with the creamy sweet sauce had an amazing kick of citrus keeping you going back for more and more and more, highly addictive! Our favourite was the Colombian obela. This popular Colombian dessert consisted of a wafers sandwich with a milk caramel, grated cheese and berries. This dessert is hard to describe, the flavours were new to my western palate, but I enjoyed the thin fresh crunchy wafers, sweet milk caramel with the berries and cheese, very enjoyable. Club Columbia do a great coffee and are open for breakfast and lunch most days and a little later for evenings at the end of the week. Hard to believe they have only been going for three months.Thanks so much for welcoming us in

Had the 'Calentado Valluno', which was like a home-cooked feast-for-one. The chicken breast was a bit dry but the chorizo was so juicy. You could easily share this between two. Felt well looked after here by staff as well.

If there ever was a competition on generosity, @clubcolombiaaustralia would win hands down!!! We had the most filling and delicious dinner tonight @clubcolombiaaustralia ❤

When I heard about their speciality drink served with - wait for it - cheese!!! - I knew we couldn't start our night without it!
So, we got the Colombian Chocolate & Cheese – Colombian dark hot chocolate spiked with clove and cinnamon and served with a side of mozzarella cubes.. When you dunk the mozzarella cubes in, you can watch it melt into a blob which you can then scoop out and enjoy with your hot chocolate! It just cements the fact that cheese goes with pretty much anything! 😄😄😄 We then ordered the Empanadas (beef + potato & chicken + rice) which were delicious!
We next got the Bandeja Paisa - One of the most famous Colombian dishes composed of 9 ingredients - Beans, pork belly, chorizo, minced beef, a fried egg, rice, avocado, ripe plantain (this was insanely good!!!), and grilled arepa.. But the best was yet to come - in the form of the most yummy Beef Burger with a side of smoked paprika chips! We totally smashed this burger which was sooo juicy and sooo flavoursome!
By the time we got to Desserts, we were pretty full but we still got the "Tres leches” cake: a homemade cake with creamy sweet sauce topped with passion fruit and strawberries and the Arros Con Leche: Rice milk combining the creamiiness of rice with the sweetness of condensed milk and caramel milk , topped with crunchy coconut flakes and hints of caramelized blackberries!! All in all, a wonderful night with superfriendly staff and exceptional service!!! Gracias for this amazing opportunity to taste a piece of Colombia in Australia!!! ❤

We are so inspired to try Latin America food after watching Netflix Street Food Latin American and found this hidden gem on Queen St. Food we ordered: 🥘 Bandeja Paisa (beans, crispy pork belly, chorizo, mince beef, a fried egg, rice, avocado, rice plantain, and grilled arepa) 🥞 Arepa De Queso (Traditional Arepa w/ grilled white corn and filled with fresh mozarella cheese). 🫔 Empanadas (Colombian corn patty filled w/ three different flavors) To start with, The Empanadas - this little pastry is awesome, full of flavors and super delicious. Then onto the main meal, our first time trying out Bandeja Paisa and we are hooked. The national dish of Colombia certainly packs a punch. A lot of different textures on the plate and the portion is massive, must-try dish here. Then we close-off with Arepa, cheesy & corny, another must try dish to round up amazing experience at this restaurant. Excellent customer service - very friendly staffs. Highly recommended for an authentic Colombian food. Would definitely come back to try other exotic colombian food.

We’re all sleeping on Colombian food here in Melbourne! I was so lucky to find this hidden gem when I was browsing google maps on where to go for my Saturday Date Night. Colombian food is something that I’ve never tried before, so coming here was a very exciting experience for me. We ordered: 1. Beef & potato empanada 2. Arepa de queso (Cheesy arepa) 3. Patacon Pisa’o Carne (Fried plaintain with meat on top) 4. Punta de Anca a la planca, with Papas Fritas and Aji (Steak with chips and Salsa on the side) 5. Colombian sugar cane lemonade I was blown away on how delicious these dishes are!! The empanada was crunchy and I think it might’ve used cornmeal pastry as the flavor was quite dominant, I loved it so much 😍 The cheesy arepa was quite yummy and sweet, it had a taste like it should be a dessert somehow. The Patacon was something that doesn’t taste familiar at all to me but it’s pretty good. I wouldn’t have it again though cause it’s too heavy for me as it’s fried, but the pulled beef on top was spot on! The Punta de Anca or Sirloin Steak was surprisingly excellent! For only $18 (chips and Aji sauce were add ons $3 and $2 respectively), it’s a damn good steak! Perfectly cooked and well seasoned, great to eat with the Aji which is a Salsa with cilantro, jalapeno, tomatoes, green onion, lemon juice and white vinegar. The salsa was a great to balance to the fats on the steak itself. Overall, everything was perfect! I was confused on why the place was almost empty when we visited, it really deserves a long queue outside their door, it’s THAT good!! 😍 Please give this place a try and let me know how it goes ✨

A nice little Colombian restaurant in the CBD. Found this place through Google map and we saw the review was good. We were hungry for brunch and decided to give this a try. The service was friendly and the foods were big in portion. You'll definitely feel full after eating here. You can even share it with friends. You should definitely try their signature hot chocolate which comes with cheese. It's a very unique experience. The place also felt homey which was nice.

A cozy place serving Colombian food and coffee. I have not been to Colombia so I don't know whether it is authentic or not. However, I do like it especially the fried plantain with various toppings - the fried plantain itself is crispy, not oily, has a slightly sweet and firm texture - its quite addictive. i also like the empanada - the skin is crisp, thin and slightly sticky - its not thick and doughy.
