Reviews for El Asadero Colombiano in Chicago, IL
Finally got to try this neighborhood famous spot. Ordered for pickup on a Saturday night. Half Rotisserie and the garlic... chicken. Both were delicious. Will be going back soon to try the steaks Read more
We dined in and ordered the grilled flank steak in creole sauce, arroz con pollo, empanadas and arepas. The food was amazing and... had an authentic homecooked taste. We loved the flavors and I was expecting the flank steak to have a little spice because itsaid creole but it was still covered in a delicious red sauce, just not spicy. The empanadas tasted like fried perogies and thearepas were slightly sweet, but it didnt have pull apart cheese i was expecting like it shows on the pic in the menu. The reasonI am not giving 5 stars is because there was an extra fee added to our check at the end. 2.88 for a 72 dollar order. I am notsure why there was this fee? ???? I didn't ask because we were in a rush to leave. The service we received was not great. We hadto ask for extra napkins and plates. Also we had to flag down our server for the check and any other thing we needed. I wouldcome back just for food alone. Maybe do a take out order next time. Read more
The chicken has always been on point. It is absolutely delicious. Today I tried the carne asada lunch special. Very... disappointing. I believe it was sandwich steak that I was served. There wasn't much of it either. Most of the lunch? consistedof rice. From now on, I will stick with the chicken. Read more
I've visited El Asadero Colombiano several times. In my opinion, they have the best chicken in Chicago. It is roasted over a... live flame, not gas either. It has a delicious, smoky flavor. I'm not sure how they manage it, but the chicken is almost bettercold the next day. Absolutely fantastic. I tell everybody to go here. Read more
Food is good, Always get their chicken. They do charge extra 4% if you pay with card and they have some special tax added even... when you pay cash. Not sure what it?s for but it?s added on to the consumer. Read more

Was recommended by a Colombian friend and it definitely did not disappoint! It was a little bit of a drive from us but so worth... it. Great flavors, amazing prices.
