I couldn't resist trying both fish dishes, and I'm so glad I did! * Filete de Pescado a la Plancha (Grilled Fish Fillet): Lightly seasoned, perfectly grilled, and flakey. Served with white rice and beans that were both simple and satisfying--classic, clean flavors done right. * Filete de Pescado en Salsa de Champiñones (Grilled Fish in Savory Mushroom Sauce) : The mushroom sauce was delicious, elevating the fish to the next level. If you're into creamy sauces and comfort food vibes, this one is a must-try. Served with a side of fried yuca that was golden brown and crispy with coconut rice and beans that will take you by surprise with actual coconut pieces in it not just made in coconut milk This was the star of the show. I ordered two passion fruit juices, and both tasted incredibly fresh--like they had just been blended moments before serving. I also had a Manzana Postobón (apple soda), which added a sweet, nostalgic Colombian touch. And let me tell you, they gave me a taste of their $5 margarita and it was so good. Lightly sweet, tangy, and not too strong--definitely a deal worth coming back for. The staff were welcoming, patient with questions, and quick with service. I appreciated the sample of the margarita--it shows they're proud of what they serve and confident you'll come back for more (and they're right). The inside of the restaurant is beautifully decorated with colorful accents, bright red seat cushions, wooden tables, hanging greenery, and Colombian flags tastefully placed throughout the space. With soft lighting and cozy touches like pillows along the bench seating, it's a perfect mix of festive and relaxed.

It's a super cute Colombian restaurant, clean, friendly and inviting staff, great food and service.

I would recommend and would return soon.

Just tried Paradero 50 and honestly what a hidden gem…read more It was such a nice surprise to find this place in the middle of nowhere super tucked away and easy to miss since there is no flag outside but once you are in it feels like you just walked into your aunt's kitchen The food tasted completely homemade fresh and full of flavor We had the pollo a la brasa, chaufa salad and fries and everything was on point You can tell it is made with care. The chef even came outside to greet us and asked how everything was which made the experience feel even more special The service was fast and the ambiance was perfect not too loud and not too quiet. We also grabbed a mazamora Morada and some arroz con leche to go because you can never go wrong with dessert for later If you are craving real comforting Peruvian food this spot is 100 percent worth finding I will definitely be back, to try their desayuno lurin on the weekends

I had read about this Peruvian restaurant and wanted to try it…read more It's in a small strip mall and there is lots of parking. When the three of us got there around 6 p.m. on a Wednesday, we were the only ones in the dining room. Our friend is going with my husband and I to Peru in October but has never had Peruvian food. So, we decided to bring her along to try her first Peruvian dishes. We ordered a ceviche entree and potatoes with cheese sauce for appetizers. The ceviche was good, with thinly sliced, well-soaked pieces of fish. My friend thought the cheese sauce on the potatoes was spicy; we did not. In fact, I thought the potatoes were kind of bland and that the sauce was a positive addition. Then, we three shared the Peruvian roasted chicken, the pollo saltado, and the chicken fried rice. The roasted chicken was fine. Nothing stellar. The fried rice was very salty, and was the least palatable of all the food we ate. We barely got through half of the entree. The pollo saltado was very good and the best of all the entrees. The restaurant charges a 4% surcharge for using a credit card. So, I gave the waitress my debit card. Nevertheless, she came back and had taken the credit card amount which included an extra 4% from my debit card and didn't understand that taking money from my debit card was like getting cash. And there was nothing I could do to explain that a debit card had no charges. Dinner for 3 with 1 appetizer, 4 entrees, 2 cans of soda, tax, and tip was $109. I would add a half star just because service was excellent. The server was pleasant and very amicable. The chef even came out to inquire how we liked the food. (Though, when we told him about the salty fried rice. He didn't seem to have a response.)

In the center of the busy Shoppes at Walmart exists this Colombian restaurant called El Buen Gusto…read morewhich translates into English as "Good Taste" and that persuaded me to give them a try. The restaurant was teeming with an abundance of patrons. Strangely, the Colombian cafe serves Cuban coffee, while there are a vast selection of Colombian medium roasts to offer. Will never turn down a simplistic Cuban coffee, so I ordered my second espresso of the morning. As my espresso was brewing, I noticed over my shoulder an entire loaf of artisan bread being gently transported to an awaiting customer table, which created a smile on my face. The employee advised that the loaves hover around the $11.00 price range. Ordered a Pan de Bono to complement my espresso. Although the size was decent, the bread was unusually dry and tasteless. Based on the breakfast and lunch specials, its obvious why its so busy. The bathroom was clean with a modern pedestal sink and cute simple decor.

Specifically waited in the area until they opened this morning to try their coffee in hopes of a unique Peruvian blend. Upon entering I felt that this location could have been a Quik Stop as a past business. The market was on one side next to a clean spacious dining area with several tables surrounded by green plants with a full wall cooler of bottled and canned drinks. The kitchen was positioned on the left where the echoes of food prep were evident. The owner greeted me and offered a menu and proudly explained that all the food is authentic Peruvian cuisine and cooked fresh per order. The Iberital Junior espresso machine behind the FL Lotto dispensor caught my undivided attention and requested an espresso. He informed me that its going to be a while since the machine was just turned on and needs to heat up. My brief confused stare was evident. I'm taking into account that the market opened at 9am, which was twenty minutes ago. Browsed through the Peruvian market products and saw huge olives and peppers but then realized there were no prices listed, nor on any other item. OK, at this point, I purchased FL Lotto tickets and left still thirsty. Upon leaving, I did my due diligence and double checked that the large steaming cup of coffee was still on the front of the building, and it was. My odd unimpressed experience today was hopefully rare to the business. Will return to try the coffee and some of their cuisine, just maybe way after the 9am opening time - in a hopeful quest to raise my current 2.5 star rating.

You can eat it right there at table service or take it to go. It's located in a small plaza with only a couple parking spaces shared with some office building. It's not an elevated date night spot but more of a quick casual bite that is worth checking out. They've been around for years. I remember coming here when I was small before they renovated the inside. Service was kind.

You could tell they take pride in their food and culture. The inside of the restaurant is painted a bright, vibrant green that immediately catches your eye. It feels fresh, clean, and full of life. Kompa music plays in the background, setting the perfect mood--it honestly made me want to dance while waiting for my food! The vibe is effortlessly Caribbean, transporting you without ever leaving the city. Portions were generous, and for the flavor and quality, it's more than worth it. Great value for an authentic Caribbean experience. You won't leave hungry! I went with my go to meal , which never disappoints! * Dinde Tassot (fried turkey): Crispy on the outside, tender inside. Seasoned to perfection--savory, flavorful, and with that bold Haitian kick. * Black rice (diri djon djon): Rich, earthy, and aromatic. You can tell it's made with love and tradition. * Macaroni with cheese: Creamy, cheesy, and made just right--comfort food at its best. Not baked, but still Great. I always order extra ! * Fried plantains: Golden and sweet with a perfect crisp on the outside. * Pikliz & gravy: The pikliz added that tangy, spicy crunch that ties everything together beautifully. The gravy? Poured it on everything! Can't wait to explore more on the menu !
