This has been my favorite restaurant in Doral forever! This dish has been my go-to for years, same amazing quality every time. Excellent and fast service. Amo Monserrat! ????????
Been coming here for years several times. Food is great and service is top notch. However. The place does tend to get busy during the rush hours and because is not to big will get crowded and most likely you'll have to wait outside for a table. Besides that, I have tried different meals and drinks and they always taste the same way they do in Colombia which is excellent. Definitely a great place to eat.
An authentic, amazing, absolutely delicious Colombian place. Service was great, and the food was even better. Traditionally the meats (steak, chorizo, and black pudding) are the mainstays, accompanied by plantains, arepas, and a mixed salad. And in all respects, their freshness and flavors are as good as you'd expect. They've good some amazing chicharrón as well! All in all, worth a lunch visit. Portions are huge as well; make sure you go in hungry!
It was a little pricey for what the portion size is but the food was good. I cant complain about the service because the waiter was a nice guy and the food came out in 15 mins so its a solid place in my opinion. I wish they wouldve grated fresh parmesan on the pasta instead of the basic white American cheese but to each's own.
The food was good, but could use a little more flavor for the chicken. The soup of the day was nice and they got the main food out quickly. However, they did forget a few of our sides and the steaks had to be sent back to be cooked the way they orded them. Yet the server was attentive, the restrooms nice, and I liked that they served soda with shaved ice.
