    Ever since my boyfriend and I moved from NYC to Seattle, one of the things we've been yearning to…read moreencounter is hearty Colombian(him)/Ecuadorian(me) food. New York was crawling in delicious Southern American food. So we decided to go on an adventure to Tacoma and visit this establishment, and I'm so glad we did. Upon walking in, the space is decorated in Colombian flags, license plates, banners, and other miscellaneous decor. The tropicana radio station playing in the back made us feel like we were back in Manizales for a brief moment. We were greeted with kindness and curiosity as we exchanged cultural backgrounds. Foods that we ate: - Pandebono (Plain, with no guyaba): One of the many famous breads Colombia has to offer, the flavor was spot on. Savory and cheesy with a nice chew. It was more airy than I was anticipating, so a lot of empty pockets while eating it (it's usually denser), but still delicious nonetheless. If you like a sweet surprise, would recommend getting the pandebono with guyaba inside. - Buñuelo: Another great cheese bread in the shape of a sphere and fried. The inside was super soft and airy as well which is more on brand for this! Although not typically crunchy or hard, the shell did lack a bit of toughness that's normally expected. Again, did not take away from the enjoyable experience otherwise. - Bandeja Paísa: Nearly perfect, we were both so stunned. The chorizo and chicharron were AMAZING. The chicharron had the perfect amount of meat, more crunchy than chewy which is what we preferred. I don't know what blend the chorizo is made out of, but it was packed with flavor. The steak was a little tough but still delicious. Avocado, fried egg, the arepa, all complemented the dish well. I personally don't like maduros, but the one in this dish was not too sweet at all, delicious. The frijoles were also packed with flavor, giving the rice a wonderful flavor to soak up. We definitely need to come back and have their churrasco for sure. If you're Colombian in the Seattle area or are looking to try Colombian food for the first time, this is a must visit!!!

    Some coworkers and I stopped in for lunch in a group of 8 on a weekday and the wonderful man behind…read morethe counter took great care in putting some tables together for us. The ambiance was vibrant with tasteful cultural music which I truly could not get enough of. The restaurant was clean, including the bathrooms and what you can see of the kitchen. Now for the food; I was not overly impressed. They seem to be popular for their empanadas but from my experience they were bland, cooked from frozen, and lacked that the booming flavor I was expecting for an authentic Colombian restaurant. Some of the entrees they make looked good but there were a few of those I wouldn't recommend either. I likely won't return but I'm excited I had the opportunity to see what they were about.

    TLDR: Food: 3/5 Okay…read morePrice: 3/5 $$ Service: 4/5 Ambiance: N/A, it's a food truck. We went because we were already in the parking lot and it smelled good, which is always a great sign. The two folks working were nice and knowledgeable. Sadly they were out of Arepas so my plan to start loudly singing songs from Encanto in my car while eating one was foiled, at least for today. We ordered quite a few menu items but noticed there were not prices listed which was a bit annoying. The cost for what we received was not a great value and only one of the items we ordered was worth the price. Perhaps if we try them again they will be not be out of arepas and we won't be as dissatisfied but chances are we won't as the price point does not match the flavor. The stuffed potatoes were good, but overall it was just under-seasoned and the fries were soggy in a "your fryer should be hotter" kind of way. Which makes sense because they inevitably fried all of it, one dish after the other. Generally, you could try it, and maybe if we had come earlier, it would have been better or if we had eaten there, in the little table area they had set up (which is covered so there is that at least), but I don't think so. I will say that in general, South American food is less spiced and salted than Mexican food, and so it is entirely possible it was supposed to taste the way it came and I am just not enough of a foodie purist to appreciate it. As it stands, I am sure that some of the flavors could be right for some folks and there is a certain homey flavor town that they visit, albeit not exceptionally well.
