This is a great place with authentic cuisine. We started with the chicken Empanadas which were crispy on the outside and full of delicious flavors on the inside. I'm sorry we didn't try the beef and cheese ones...maybe next time. The seafood paella was full of shrimp, octopus, mussels and chorizo over seasoned rice with fried onions, red peppers and peas. The chorizo was so good I got a few to take home. The ropa vieja was beef which was slow cooked to the point of falling apart and melting in your mouth with potatoes and a side of rice. There were three in my party and we all had at least seconds and still had some leftovers. Very enjoyment meal and would recommend.

Man, I could eat at this place every week and be a happy camper! The food was sooo flavorful and delicious. Every item on our plates was cooked well and seasoned to perfection. Despite not speaking the same language, we were able to communicate our needs and received good and friendly service from our waitress. The other diners all seem to be enjoying their meals. And, our portions were big enough to enjoy the deliciousness at another meal. Would return without hesitation!

They also have parking in the back, which is always a huge plus! When we arrived, there were only about three tables filled, but as the evening went on, more and more people started coming in. There was a steady flow of customers dining in, picking up takeout, and visiting their bakery. And let me tell you--the baked goods looked absolutely fabulous! I'll definitely be trying some next time. Our waiter, Joe, was fantastic! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the entire evening. We started with the ceviche de chicharrón, and WOW--it was amazing! The combination of tostones, crispy chicharrón, the perfect amount of onions, and one of the best guacamoles I've had in quite a while made this an incredible appetizer. My husband ordered the fried fish, and it was so fresh and perfectly fried. It came with salad and tostones, and he absolutely loved it. My son and I both ordered the traditional Paisa dish, and the portions were HUGE! Everything on the plate was delicious and cooked perfectly. I added fried onions to my steak, and let me just say... THE BOMB! One more thing I forgot to mention--this restaurant is BYOB! Overall, we had a wonderful experience--from the food and portions to the service and atmosphere. We will definitely be back, and I can't wait to try more from their menu and bakery! Highly recommend giving this place a try!

We ordered many different things and the only good thing was the rice and beans. Everything lacked seasoning. We were a party of five and my husband food came after we all ate. No apologies, then my food ordered tostones and Maduros and we never got it. Had to ask a couple of times then finally got it. The tostones were so bad no salt and way too thick.My kid hated it and when asked to remove it from the bill. The waitress told my young waiter no. I would never come back.

They also gave me two sets of cutlery which was a win for me. Most places usually forget to add cutlery. I ordered the Bandeja Paisa| 8oz NY Strip Steak. The meal came with steak, sausage, pork belly, white rice & beans, sweet plantains, Colombian corn cake,fried egg and avocado. All for $23 (in 2025). I also got a Goodo brand cola champagne. Money well spent because the food was delicious. The portion size was enough for two servings. Everything was seasoned well and cooked to perfection. I live two hours away and am willing to drive the distance for the food again it was that good. Ten out of ten definitely recommend.

The place also has some very cute seating. I would totally make the drive again just for this.

Oh, and there's no shortage of free parking at this restaurant. First off, the picture on the menu showed a little bowl for the onion stew, whereas what I got was onion stew spread over the chicken. The stew itself was tasty, but for both the stew and grilled chicken, a bit more tenderness and less chewiness would certainly have elevated both dishes. The red beans and plantains were fine, but the yellow rice lacked any discernible flavour which was disappointing. I believe this place has what it takes to be even better and that both dishes should have been better. I hope they continue to improve and serve the locals (and non-locals) for many more years.

The restaurant made a serious mistake and refuse to admit it or make any compensation…read more I made a pickup order from Uber Eats, but the order vanished before I get to the restaurant. Then I thought the order was cancelled but I didn't receive any refund. I called the restaurant and they said the order was complete. But I never got the food. This means that the restaurant probably gave it to other people by mistake. However, they didn't admit this mistake and claimed they are not responsible for this. They did not show any sincerity nor gave me any compensation for this problem.
