I've driven by El Patio countless times and always said to my husband "we gotta check this place…read moreout". Well we finally did. Once for soup and cappuccino around 2:30 and the last time for an early dinner around 4pm. On both occasions the restaurant was immaculate. And so was the gender less bathroom. The service was efficient and warm, and both servers preferred to speak in Spanish. And that's fine. Their menu shows Mexican dishes as well as Colombian dishes. And then everything else. Our soup the first time was a special. Pumpkin soup right before Halloween. It's a huge bowl and I mean huge not large. It was served hot as requested but was delicious. Our sit down meal was a breaded chicken breast with three - yes - 3 sides! The mashed potatoes were creamy. The yucca was boiled and delicious. We also had a mini chicken empanada in a corn outer. It had a touch of sweetness and was a treat for my tastebuds. I had the broiled salmon in their special sauce. The salmon was prepared closer to well done than any other heat and it was as requested. I'll order that again. Our eyes were bigger than our tummy's because when the chicken soup and veggies came, we asked that it be wrapped to go. There was a 1/4 chicken wing and foot in the container. Again, oversized. At $20+ it could be considered pricey. But once you saw how many ingredients there were and that think of chicken you're feeling it was worth it. We will return without question.

Lots of cute couch and chair sections to kick back and enjoy a coffee surrounded by a light rustic decor. I ordered the Macchiato in a short glass cup on a porcelain saucer with a frothy white head floating over the brown hot coffee.

Great food and location! This restaurant is quite near the beach…read more I happen to be Colombian and can say that the flavor and the dishes are definitely on point! That said, it's a small location, no more than 12 or so tables. The service is quite slow, at least it was when I visited and had to wait quite a while for each course and let alone the bill. However, worth a try for sure.

It seems like they are better for takeout because I saw 5-6 tables inside.

My friend and I shared the Ceviche Original del Puerto with super fresh fish and wonderful flavors. We ordered it medium spicy and I like spice but I was tearing up a little. My main was the Tacu Tacu Panzon. I love tacu tacu which is a fried rice and bean mixture, and having it topped off with their succulent lomo saltado just took it to the next level. My friend had the Tallarines al Pesto, a pasta dish and another one of my favorites. I couldn't decide which I liked more! Portions were generous and we took home leftovers.

The mini grocery part has a lot of directly imported snacks and a lot of pre-made frozen items to take home.

There are several tables and chairs next to the storefront window- a nice spot for working or hanging, both of which I have done here before. The location is easy to find, in a plaza at a major intersection.

In the mood for an after lunch espresso with a pastry and noticed several cafes along 441 in South…read moreWest Boca. This small Colombian cafe was in the center of an older plaza and took a chance. About half of the tables were occupied by customers and copped a quick peek at their latino style food which looked promising. The main display was full of pastries which included bonello, cookies, breads and small cakes. The golden brown bonellos (well priced at $2.00) were absolutely massive and decided to have one to split with the wife. The server advised that the cafe only serves Colombian drip coffee from a basic kettle, which she proudly pointed at (see pic). Based on this unforeseen depressing news, the mammoth bonello no longer seemed that spectacular. This was a first for me, a Colombian cafe that only serves drip coffee? Cmon. I took the bonello to my vehicle and took a few bites which were tasty, but rough on the swallows down. It would have been complemented perfectly with an espresso. On a good note, the gender neutral bathroom was clean with two-toned tiled flooring and a corian sink.
