My first time trying Colombian food and it was so enjoyable!! The service here is so friendly; I was greeted with smiles all around. You can really tell that this is an independently owned mom and pop shop where the owners and employees enjoy the company of their customers. The waitresses exchanged conversations (all conducted in Spanish) with the customers and clients.
I had no clue what to order, and so carefully observed what surrounding tables got. A couple of customers had this big bowl of soup in front of them, served with a heap of rice, a slice of very ripe and beautiful avocado, a banana, and a small container of dairy (full fat cream or milk). Seeing that this was a very popular dish, I asked for it. The soup is called Ajiaco, and it was definitely not the sancocho or mondogo featured on the menu. The waitress told me that this was a special dish served only on Saturdays and Sundays.
The ajiaco soup had lots of potatoes, green peas, chicken breast, and a piece of corn. There were also other herbs and greens that I couldn't quite place my finger on. The small dairy container is meant to be added to the soup - I added a few drops and it really did accentuate and richen the flavour. Without it, the soup is still flavourful but slightly bland.
I also tried my friend's bandeja - if you're looking for the biggest bang for your buck, definitely go for this dish! It comes with a friend egg, chorizo, pork belly, steak flank, beans, and rice. I had a piece of the pork belly and it was absolutely out of this world! It was unbelievably crispy; though erring on the dry side, it was super flavourful and fatty. I'm a sucker for crispy food, and it didn't disappoint.
Additionally, I sampled my friend's appetizer, the salchipapas. Sliced sausages came served on a bed of fries with a small boiled quail egg on the side. This dish tasted absolutely amazing with the salsa. Actually - the salsa really added flavour to everything! It was the best salsa I've ever had!!
We also tried the Colombiana, a Fanta like drink. I didn't find it particularly special, but we most definitely order the lulo juice next time I come! I must also try the empanadas next time. -

Great food! Awesome service! :) I loved how Paisa takes his time to interact every single customer who walks in. Will definitely come back for more.

Maybe this was just a case of expectations being too high but sadly this place was a bit of a miss in my books. I'd seen the pictures and the fantastic reviews so naturally I was pumped to eat here. I ordered the plate that is mostly meat, and my friend got a dish that also sounded pretty appetizing (I don't recall the names of either but pictures are attached).
The rice dish was alright. It came with corn bread and a slice of cheese that was quite good. The rice component itself though was only okay. It was a decent medley of sausage and beans; just not good enough that I would order it again. It was pretty plain and tasted like something I would throw together at home from leftovers.
The meat dish was the biggest letdown. Everything ranged from super dry to super chewy. It was a bit of a chore to eat to be honest, and we struggled through it.
I'd like to give this place the benefit of the doubt because it does seem to have a dedicated following, especially among locals. Hopefully next time I'll find something I like better on their menu.
