COSTILLAS COLOMBIAN GRILL REVIEWS

Warning! Once you try the costillas de Pedro every where else’s ribs would fail in comparison. It also ruins diets because once you start eating them you can’t stop. I’ve had dreams of those costillas. I don’t even live close, but this is worth the drive.

If you’re looking for authentic Colombian food, go here! The food is delicious and the staff is always welcoming. Great prices for large portions as well.

Their ribs are amazing! I always order from them for my parties and never disappoint!

YC RIBS REVIEWS

Really good experience. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and laid back, making it a great spot to sit back and enjoy a meal. The food was on point especially the ribs, which were flavorful, tender, and cooked just right. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. What really made the visit stand out was our server, Anita. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time without being overbearing. Great service like that always makes a difference. Overall, a solid experience from start to finish. I’d definitely recommend YC Ribs if you’re looking for good food and great service.

We saw this on TikTok and good and service was fantastic. $250 for a family member of 6. We had some young kids.

I went with my family, we ordered ribs and mofongo, everything was delicious.
