Pollos Mario Steak House & Seafood in Hempstead serves up some of the best Colombian food around. The fried plantains were golden, slightly crisp on the edges with a soft, sweet center that balanced perfectly with the savory dishes. The fried red snapper had a crispy, well-seasoned skin with tender, juicy meat inside that flaked beautifully with every bite. The skirt steak was juicy, smoky, and full of flavor grilled just right with tenderness. The paella was rich and hearty, with perfectly cooked rice infused with saffron and brimming with fresh seafood that gave every bite depth and flavor.
The ambiance is casual and relaxed, with enough space to comfortably fit large groups, making it a great place for family gatherings. The service was warm and hospitable, attentive without being too overbearing.
Everything we tried was cooked to perfection, making this a spot worth coming back to again and again.

Food is good. Parking is hard on the weekends sometimes. Their lot is small and if it gets packed then you’ll be waiting for someone to leave. It is a bit pricey in my opinion and there are other Colombian options in the area that are cheaper.

Friendly environment, food incredibly delicious and done well. It gets busy in evenings especially weekends, valet parking is a plus. Ive been going there for over 10 plus years i just love it actually, im going there for fathers day. (I went last weekend too ).

Good lunch for 20 bucks and a natural juice. Is hard to beat that. My mom is Colombian. This food reminds me her food. That means is the really good. Very authentic food, with fair prices. The bathrooms were clean, the service is friendly and I had to wait like 19 minutes for my order. They gave super coco candies. That’s why I put a 5 star review. Parking next to the restaurant so make it a really nice choice when I’m in the area. If the owner read this, you should open one in the Hamptons, Colombian food there is a joke. You gonna make a lot money.

Delicious food, well priced. Friendly service. Our only qualm was with the beverages, I had a blueberry mojito but all I could taste was the lime rinds inside and my grandparents also found their lemonade too sour. But my aunt had the pina colada and really enjoyed it. Overall lovely experience and will be returning soon.

We had dinner at Pollos Mario in Hempstead, and it was a delightful experience. I enjoyed the garlic shrimp served with rice and beans, and for dessert, we indulged in Tres Leches cake. Everything was incredibly fresh, and the flavors were outstanding. The waitress was exceptionally accommodating and helpful, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. This family-friendly restaurant is a gem, and I highly recommend it!

We were hungry. I was meeting my two friends from Queens. I am a Brooklyn boy. Last week we did Columbian but the food was average at best. We looked at the abundance of good reviews of Pollos Mario and decided to give it a shot. The place has parking and is guarded by an attendant. The restaurant is clean with lots of tables. Surprisingly it is not noisy. Our waiter Alvin was a young aspiring man who was making his way through a trade school. He had worked at the place since he was 16 and really knew his job well. He never told us what was good, only what people always ordered. He was very attentive to our needs. He is a real asset to this place.
The menu is rich with various Columbian dishes. I really wanted the chicken and rice with beans. My friend ordered fish. We also ordered guacamole with chips. It was so good. My chicken dish was amazing. The chicken was very tasty. To my surprise, it came with Chicken Soup, traditional Columbian, and that again was really well done. My friend’s fish was really good as well. We were really satisfied. They make a garlic sauce that is extra and not really obvious on the menu. I highly recommend ordering this to go with everything you could possibly put it on.
I told my friend we were not doing dessert. He agreed until Alvin listed the desserts. I am a sucker for good Flan. The dessert menu is small. There is a Flan, Tres Leche, and a Brownie with or without Ice Cream. We saw the Tres Leche and it looked amazing. I had the Flan. This was the most amazing Flan. The custard was rich thick and delicious. I cannot get it out of my mind.
We had a moment to talk with the owner who is Columbian. He, along with his partners has created an amazing place. It is no wonder it has so many positive reviews.
Thanks for a wonderful night out. This place rocks!
UPDATE: The following week. This does not generally happen, but we went back for more. The experience was equally good and even more fun as we knew some of the wait staff.
Just to clarify, The fish dish my friend had was not as expected, that said, he was totally surprised at how good the dish was. He thought it was overcooked, however, it was cooked to perfection, crisp on the outside and tender and moist on the interior. He ate it to the bone. This visit he had the Rotisserie Chicken as did I, no surprise, it was amazing. We added the garlic sauce. Again, the Flan is so amazing. The parking attendant takes his job seriously, I love his bright lights.

I would give zero stars , this place has a very violent security guard, before even entering restaurant he assumes your door dash guy and follows you around like you are there to steal or something. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY. I felt very uncomfortable I had to leave before even trying their food, very bad experience.
