    Que Más Pues! Neon Wall The perfect Antioqueño backdrop bright, fun, and full of personality.
    Luis H.

    If you're craving real Colombian comfort food with a lively, welcoming vibe, La Fonda Sabaneta delivers from the moment you walk up. The place feels like a little corner of Antioquia colorful décor, friendly staff, and that warm "estás en casa" energy that makes the whole experience feel personal. Service was attentive and kind, the type where they check on you without hovering. The menu is playful and creative (the passport-style menu is such a nice touch), and the food comes out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The sancocho was the star hearty broth, tender beef, sweet corn, and all the traditional touches that make it feel like a Sunday at abuela's house. Portions are generous, and everything tastes homemade. Whether you're stopping by for a comforting meal or looking to introduce someone to Colombian flavors, this spot hits the mark. Authentic, flavorful, and full of charm.

    My friends and I randomly picked this place for lunch and drinks and we had a very pleasant experience. We ordered a mix of their steaks, margaritas, and the arepitas appetizer. Their steaks were good and the portions very generous. The arepitas appetizer was very small for the price so I would not order again. Drinks were good but not too strong. Our server was very friendly and the ambiance was chill and relaxed. I liked that we were able to stay for a while talking after our meal and were not rushed out. I would come again!

    2for$30 Bandeja Paisa. Mondays. Great deal! $5 for margaritas. You must try. Hooked since the first time we went.

    We visited on a Tuesday and they have a picada special you get a pitcher of beer free. My husband and I don't drink beer but it to know for those that do. All the different meats were very well seasoned and tasted delicious, very good portions. All week they have a special different day. Definitely going back again! Our server Manuel was great that also made out visit a success!

    Tengo una pregunta? Porque los potes de sancocho ya son tan pequeñas? No tiene nada de sopa. Antes tenía containers más grande y era más sopa. Lo mismo de relleno. Pero prefiero mi sopita por favor.

    Picadera Pequena
    Melanie L.

    YUMMY COLOMBIAN FOOD! Amazing spot, service, and food. Definitely recommend! Picadera Pequena is great to share between 1-3 people and was delicious. It comes with a variety of meats, fries, mini empanadas, and fried yuca. Waiter was friendly and attentive. Food came out in a good amount of time. Ambiance was very nice and good music as well.

    The food bandeja paisa was one of the best , my first time visiting this place, free parking nearby The gratuity is included 18 percent plus some taxes , but I almost gave them 2 stars because the waitress wanted me to give another 18 or 20 percent tip , on top of the one automatically included , what a bunch of thieves , they wanted me to give 40 percent tip in a crowded restaurant with no privacy , they made us feel bad and I said why do you want me to give tip again, Manager or owner , tell your waitress to stop stealing from customers, I'm going to return in few weeks , and if you tip policy persist , I'm going to charge my star review from 4 to 1 , Food bandeja paisa was very good, congratulations

    Location: West Flager, Miami Florida Ambiance: Nice place. Ideal to go with friends and have drinks and food. Food: bandeja paisa was great. They had a special 2x1. For 30$ They included empanada. The meat was delicious, tender Service: great. Yelp factor: look for the specials in food and drinks. Bandeja paisa is one of the best that I ever had outside Colombia

    Pechuga a la plancha con arroz, maduros, y frijoles.

    From the outside, Fonda Sabaneta is an unassuming stripmall hole in the wall restaurant. It's not until you step inside do you get to experience the vibrant and happening energy of this place serving up authentic Colombian fare, that seems to be always packed no matter the day or time. I made the mistake of going to Colombia 5 years ago and falling in love with arroz con coco. I have not been able to find it here in Miami until I stumbled upon this restaurant online. The first time we tried to eat here the wait was over an hour long so we ended up bailing. Finally the stars aligned and we found ourselves with a free evening and an available table outside. Without hesitation I ordered the fileto de pescado a la plancha with maduros, salad, and of course arroz con coco. Their version wasn't quite the same as what danced on my tongue in Medellin, but it was still quite a tasty edition to my fish. My guy got the grilled chicken with beans and rice. All in all it was a solid and fulfilling dinner, but I made need to book a plane ticket for my arroz con coco fix.

You walk in and it's just brimming with stuff ALL over the place. It's like a fever dream, but in a good way. Since we walked in it was packed and there was music which definitely set the vibe. Was a little hard to talk, but it made you want to dance the whole away through. The food is priced great and delicious. It took a little while, but completely understandable and the wait time was convenient for how packed the place was. The only reason I'm giving a four instead of a five was the service was a LITTLE slow. I understand again they were doing as good a job as possible for how packed the place was, but I had asked for water when our server took our order and I didn't get water till every single person at our table had to reask for water and I finally got some post meal. Our server was really nice, but again, took a while to get water, but we got another round of sangria and received those before the water. The place was bumping and people were dancing and having a good time. I would MAYBE check this place out again on a slower day. I hear they have mariachi!

Some Colombian restaurants rent in places where the lease is absorbed by the paying customer in the charge of food- this is simply not the case here This restaurant is a staple of the area and don't be surprised to walk in and hear patrons greet the staff as if they were regulars because they most certainly are familiar faces I ordered a bone broth to start with grilled steak and rice entrée and finished with a cup of coffee that was brewed to perfection This is the kind of place you go for quality food in a cozy environment Parking is somewhat limited out front, which adds to the exclusivity of it unless you're in a walking distance While I was there, I also noticed a multitude of Mobile dining orders, which lets you know plenty of people want with this place has to offer and after having eaten here today, I can completely see why: great food great staff amazing price points

The girl that answered was super friendly and told me they could have them ready for the time I ordered, which was great!! I got to the location for my pick up and the whole parking situation was a mess. I had to park a bit far, which was more of an inconvenience than an actual problem. Once in there, I went to the counter where there were 3 ladies working. I'm literally in front of them and about 4 minutes went by before any of them even acknowledged my presence. I'm the one that finally spoke up and said "buenas tardes" and they acted as if I had just miraculously appeared in front of them. I find this absolutely shocking, as most Colombian restaurants are so welcoming and polite. I ask for my order and they tell me to wait a moment. About another 5 minutes go by and they bring out my order horribly covered with some aluminum foil. In the car I grabbed an empanada to have a taste and it is all burned inside and out. When I got to my gathering I removed the aluminum foil and about 10 empanadas were in the same badly burned condition. These empanadas cost a little over $2 a piece! I paid $90+!! I understand Saturday was the Colombia game and they must have been swamped, but if you can't provide quality product, don't overwhelm yourself by taking on more than your kitchen can handle. The oil must not have been the right temperature cause the empanadas were extremely greasy. Luckily we were able to place them on some paper towels to soak up the grease and most of them were consumed. Everyone said that the taste was decent, but they were definitely over fried. I have no idea what their food and service is if you dine in, however I highly recommend not ordering out. There's much better Colombian places.

They boast both indoor and outdoor seating with the same aesthetic and nods to Colombian culture, like the cute hats and sandals hanging on the wall. We were seated inside fairly quickly on the Sunday afternoon we came in. They were pretty busy, but the waiters were kind of hanging out at the bar, just chit-chatting. We were able to get one of the servers to look at us after a couple of minutes of sitting there. They brought us a little palate-opener of a small portion of a simple soup. They had a margarita special we tried, $5 frozen margaritas. The maracuya (passion fruit) one was a solid choice. I also ordered the mojarra frita with white rice, tostones, and salad. The rice was really undercooked. The waiter tried to appease us by bringing us more of the same uncooked rice. We were not the only table to say something about it because our neighbors confirmed they too received the same and were also unhappy. Other than that, the rest of my meal was great. However, I will say my mom was very upset with her experience and expressed that her chicken wasn't prepared well either.
