I ordered steak with sautéed veggies- which reminded me of Mexican steak fajitas. The sliced steak was cooked with bell peppers and onions. I ordered avocado slices on the side in addition to maduros. It was all delicious! Service was fair. I don’t see why not return! :-)

It’s usually the little spots that never fail to amaze and this is one of them. We came here on a Thursday afternoon and it was relatively empty at first. The server was quick to our table and took the drink and appetizer order. We ordered the plantains with guacamole. I was surprised to only see four fried plantains with the mountain of guacamole that came. The taste of both, plantains and guacamole was great, I would have expected a few more plantains though, as we had half a bowl of guacamole left after finishing the plantains. The Bandeja Paisa was fantastic. The avocado was fresh, soft, vibrant green, and didn’t have a single brown spot. The steak was nice and tender while the pork rind was crispy. For once I was able to enjoy the entire pork rind compared to other places where it’s like rubber. Biggest winner were the beans. Doesn’t matter where I go, they usually have no flavor, are watery and taste fresh out of the can. The beans I experienced here had great flavor and it actually seemed like someone took the time to taste it and adjust seasonings. Gave it four stars because our table was dirty and the seat was sticky.

Hearty no fuss Colombian plates that fill you up. Try the bandeja paisa. Food is hot and flavorful, good salsa verde. Service is fast and prices fair.
