About a year ago I started to come to this restaurant for their soups which for the most part were delicious. Once in a while I would ask them to change the beef for me because it was too tough & they were very pleasant & would oblige. Recently I placed an order for delivery & the food was horrific!!! My beef soup was in a large container & had 2 huge pieces of potatoes (looked like they were whole potatoes) with another large piece of yuca. When I removed those large vegetable & 3 small pieces of beef I was left with about an 1.5” of broth. I had also ordered an avocado salad & the avocado was terrible parts were overripe & not edible!! I also ordered a grilled chicken sandwich which tasted like burned charcoal. It was like a piece of charred leather no seasoning or taste whatsoever!!! Stay away this place is hit or miss.

My girlfriend and I have been coming here for a while now. Always have a different dish and never dissatisfied. Staff is always nice and make sure that our table is ok. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Wow! My Arepa was BURNT! That next to it is supposed to be a Avacado .. The food lacked flavor. Even the rice and beans tasted burnt. I love Colombian food. But, this isn’t food at all….

Went there on a Saturday night, ask for sopa de lenteja the lady at the counter said they don’t have that, I said okay then let me get an arepa de choclo con queso, she said they don’t have it either, so I told her to give me couple minutes to look through the menu. After 15 mins she comes back to me, asked her for an orange juice and empanadas, and she said that at this time (night time) they don’t make orange anymore. Literally everything I asked for ‘they don’t have’. Not the best service. I ended up leaving the place.

The best Colombian food around. I have been going here for over 15 years. The Sanchocho is amazing. The churrasco is delicious and the detail to the food is great.
