    We heard about this place that has traditional colombian food, and we wanted to try it, as overall we didn’t have any surprises. The food came in a super big portion and it was delicious but heavy. The vibe was nice and i got lucky, to see the game from coppa america. The service was great and the vibe was interesting!

    Went to this place on a Recommendation. Well… it was as good as they said! :) Excellent and authentic Colombian food in a unique environment. Service was spot on. The Whole fried fish was flown in from Colombia and was as delicious as anyone I’ve had in Cartagena, Cali, Bogota or Medellin! The Agua Panela was also super tasty! Highly Recommend for Authentic Colombian Cuisine at reasonable price in a unique atmosphere.

    My husband was born and raised in Colombia so every time we visit Miami, we go on the hunt for some authentic Colombian food to remind him of home. We found this place by a quick google search and we were not disappointed! We ordered 1) Churrasco la chismosa which was plenty of food for 2 people to share, 2) beef empanadas, and 3) picada chorizo con papa criolla which was my husband's favorite. The restaurant itself is nothing fancy, but the service was wonderful! We would definitely recommend this place to others!

    The food was delicious we got salchipapas, empanada de carne, aguapanela and consome de pollo, only detail that I would mention it's that the waitress forgot couple times about our food. Prices are ok

    Best Colombian food in the área of Brickell, Downtown and little Havana. This is a go to restaurant for any craving of a typical colombian plate.
