They messed up my order and I was extremely disappointed with it. However upon calling the restaurant and speaking with the owner to air my concerns I decided to change the review. The owner is a consummate gentleman that doesn't shy away from criticism. He listened to my concerns as a consumer and I greatly appreciate that because most people aren't too adept at handling criticism. I had been to this restaurant several times prior to writing my first bad review and my experiences were always positive and even though my experience ordering out was disappointing I will continue to eat at La Masa. People make mistakes and I wish to see La Masa continue to grow and prosper. read less

Had the Campesina Burger, very well cooked the atmosphere was great, music was low enough I can have an actual conversation. My family and I came in for brunch I had the Bellini and my brother had the Cortadito, it's like a coffee with rum drink - SO GOOD!
Our server was Xena, she was super sweet and a great server, very very attentive all orders were correct, great for families, birthdays, lunch or dinner! Anything- highly recommend this place and our amazing server Xena. read less

Was fireeee first off the margaritas were on point. There is an adequate amount of alcohol and the flavors taste good. And the food was amazing. I had empanadas, cheese and beef. I also had patacones cache with beef. It was amazing. The flavors were perfect. There is also additional sauces to make your food a bit spicy! read less

Definitely authentic Colombian food with a modern twist. Usually Colombian restaurants will give you an ABUNDANCE of food which is why I say with a modern twist.. more portion controlled. Very chic. read less

It's a short walk from the Morris Park station on the 5. Definitely go with a group of people because you're going to want to try all the things.
I came here on my birthday for lunch as part of a day-long series of activities, and this was the highlight for everyone. We told the server that it was our first time there, and she helped us order.
The reason they have a menu that includes vegan and gluten-free items because a relative of the owner has a medical condition that required her to explore various dietary options to deal with it. So that is how they became familiar with vegan food. The menu has vegan and gluten-free items well-marked.
Empanadas - definitely get the Roasted Vegetables. It comes in a corn dough and we all agreed this was the best flavor and ordered seconds. We also tried the Mushrooms & Onions, Beef-Less Ground and Roasted Eggplant ones, which were fine, they just couldn't compare to the Roasted Vegetables.
We tried both the Patacones (green plantain base) and the Arepas (white cornmeal base). If you can only choose one, go with the Patacones. We tried both the Carrilero (beef-less ground and cheese) and the Vegan (mix greens, black beans, guiso & vegan cheese) toppings, which were both good. I'm usually not into fake meats, but I did like their beef-less ground.
Maduros Rellenos - a whole sweet plantain sliced down center and filled. We got the Beef-Less Ground & Vegan Cheese version. Excellent!
Each of those three dishes is served with a side of calentado (rice and beans).
Maizitos - an appetizer that is a big bowl of corn. It's good, but make sure you have enough people to eat it or be prepared to take some home because it's very large!
For dessert, we tried the Arroz con Leche Vegan (rice pudding). It was good. Rice pudding isn't really my thing, so I would try one of the other two vegan desserts next time (strawberries and cream or apple pie empanadas). read less

The waitresses were very attentive and nice. I liked the decor and the fact that they use mason jars for cups ( not a new concept, but still something I am fond of). The place was really clean and they had music playing in the background, just loud enough to enjoy without being obnoxious or stopping you from having and enjoying a conversation with your company. I really recommend stopping by to eat in or even getting something to go. It will definitely become a regular spot. read less

On my most recent visit, I ordered the cilantro lime chicken, which was a large plate of chicken, rice and beans, salad and maduros. It was so delicious I actually finished it ALL in one sitting! The service is great and the atmosphere is very laid back. read less

I had the cilantro lime chicken and it was great. Portions are very large, I couldn't finish everything. My boyfriend had the Bandeja Paisa and finished the whole plate. We also ordered the steak,cheese &onion and Mac & cheese empanadas. They were fantastic. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked perfectly. I had a Colombian iced coffee as well and loved it. The food came out fast. Service was attentive and the staff was friendly. I will definitely be back. So happy to have a great Colombian place in the Bronx!! read less

As soon as you walk in you feel like your in Colombia with their cultural Latin music. The service was excellent and food was delicious. Since I'm a vegatarian, they have various options to choose from. Highly recommended read less

During this challenging time, I appreciate La Masa's business and ability to continue to provide such great service to the community.
La Masa siempre hace la entrega de comida mucho antes del tiempo anticipado. Le agradezco su gran y pronto servicio por que siempre espero mi comida con ansias. Durante este tiempo de gran dificultad a causa del COVID-19, aprecio el trabajo y la habilidad que ha tenido La Masa de proveer tan buen servicio. read less

They sat us quick and within minutes someone was asking our order. They were so quick and nice and polite. Kept asking if we needed anything throughout our time here. A tall Hispanic dark brown hair guy helped us, very nice and cute haha. The food was DELICIOUS!! Literally finger licking delicious! We all enjoyed the food even my 2yr old sometimes cranky and difficult to eat from places he doesn't know. The mango margaritas were delicious!! I felt this restaurant definitely deserved a review, first of many times I come to this restaurant. I will see you again, price is fair for all the food we ate plus it was delicious like I mentioned so worth it. Keep up the amazing job! read less
