    Ribeye steak with tostones and yuca fries
    Bo K.

    Large dining space with friendly service. I was craving some maduros and decided to bring some family in for lunch. We started with a chicharron ceviche. The family liked it but the pork was chewy for me. In general, portions were generous, which we loved because we had leftovers to take away with us. The ceviche aguardiente was very balanced in flavor and much larger in portion than we expected so we all shared it. The ribeye steak was definitely a standout dish. Although thin, the steak was soo juicy. Paired with the crispy tostones and yuca fries, it was perfect. We also had the bandeja paisa con extrana which had the best of everything. Packed with flavor. Great spot, I recommend coming hungry, order a drink, and enjoy.

    Picada
    Charlie S.

    Ordered the picada for two. It's 50 bucks (compare to a hamburger for 20). Plate is generous and stacked with meats. Service pretty brisk. Came in 1220, order 1230, food arrives 1258. I feel like it could've been improved with overnight marinade maybe, the grilled meats were good but lacked a bit of herb or spice or wood smoke. This might be consistent with cuisine, and perhaps I need to lean into using my sauces correctly.

    Calentado Aguardiente
    Princeton R.

    I ordered the Calentado Aguardiente. First I want to say this was my second time eating here and the energy was very welcoming and cozy. For this being my first time trying this breakfast platter it was a lot of food. But oh so delicious. Picking up the food was very quick and easy. I did not expect to the service to have everything done cooked well and packaged for me within 15 mins. Will be going back again.

    Passionfruit margarita
    Ann S.

    Yummy food! Fast and friendly service! Fun music with a nice vibe. The chicken with mushrooms is a must! So is the guacamole with fried pork belly... wow!!! The passionfruit margarita was strong and tasty as well!

    Craving steak and decided to come here. We are not disappointed! Lots of meat, enough for lunch and dinner for 2 people so definitely excellent value for delicious food! I was told that the place turns into a nightclub at night so looking forward to come back for that!

    Honestly, the food was pretty good. They had live music and it was enjoyable. Funny cause all the female servers wore tight clothing and had their chest popping out of the shirt and big booties lol. Idky they had to dress like that. Men definitely would enjoy . I gave it a 4 cause I felt like I was at hooters or twin peaks.

    Oil burn blistered mark

    First thing, it's a sweat shop in there! Moving forward the food was decent. I can not review my skirt steak as I quickly lost my appetite after one of the servers poured hot burning oil from the toma hawk they had just placed on fire in front of house. It was not a drop but almost dropped the cast iron dish on him and poured oil all over his thigh. They brought a wet towel and some Vaseline for him to go to the bathroom and apply. There was oil all over the seat and table. We did not come to realize how bad it was till this morning when I scabbed and blistered up. Manager never came to apologize or check on us. We kept it classy and did not create a scene. We attempted to savage the reason for our travels to Orlando to celebrate Father's Day and his birthday. We were not offered any compensation not even his bday cake. They did not take ANY accountability for the cause and this has now caused a major set backs on our plans to go out today.

    Entrana Á La Parrila y Sobrebarriga Á La Criolla
    Nicole S.

    Being Colombian, i always get excited about discovering new Colombian food spots and was curious about trying this place when i drove by it while working on i-drive. I saw some negative reviews but decided to be adventurous and made a reservation for two. The place is pretty spacious and has big tv's all over the place...many playing soccer which i'm perfectly fine with. They appeared busy but the service was reasonably timely. We ordered our apps, received them, then ordered our entrees. For appetizers, my mom ordered the chunchullo with arepa and really liked it - if you don't know what that is..google it it tastes like a pork grind and wasn't bad with the green aioli sauce. My grandma used to love this dish. The mini empanadas were great - 5 chicken, and 5 beef. Very delicious. At first it didn't come out with any aji even though we mentioned it, but the food runner made it right and brought some right away. For the entrees, my mom got the sobrebarriga with yucca and beans - she enjoyed it and had tons of leftovers since it's a huge dish. I ordered the entraña a la parrilla with potato and beans and it was delicious. Our only gripe was our guanábana batidos - too sweet and somewhat expensive. $9? Ok...we are on i-drive in tourist country i suppose. We usually go to Oh Que Bueno and were pleasantly surprised with Aguardiente's massive menu. They have soups...no sancocho but there was caldo de res and consomé de pollo to choose from. We were too full for dessert but they had several to choose from. On our way out, one of the guys mentioned live music on the weekends starting at 730 with a dj late at night. It's a bit of a drive, but we'll definitely go back on occasion. Overall pleased with our experience!

    Guava juice
    Vanessa A.

    I've been in this location twice, once for dinner and one for lunch. Last time was for lunch on our way to Aquatica/seaworld, it's very close to the Seaworld area -like around the corner. I went for lunch, our server JuanDa took great care of us, I liked the place is very big, has many walls for photo ops. I ordered for lunch, patacones/tostones with hogao, smashed fried plantain with a tomato onion peppers stir fried type of sauce. Also it came with guacamole, and I also got a Colombian style burger - it was $20 something but the burger was huge, and they added melted cheese to the burger as they serve it. It was so good. I went with family bu they only wanting to order drinks - tropical fruit juices, I believe we ordered guava, mango and soursop juices, you can order the juice with milk or water based. I loved the music, it's very legit Colombian, the vibe the music, etc. This is also the type of place that turns into a night club at night, you can see that have spaces for live music and dance floors, it's a big place. The very first time I went I went for dinner, we ordered some Colombian beers, Club Colombia and Aguila beers if I recall well, In that occasion, and ordered carne-en-vara steak - I believe is the way the steak is cooked, and it was so good the steak, it's a bar steakhouse, that's probably the it speciality. My only complaint and it happens the first time in dinner time - was that the music was so loud we couldn't really talk with each other in the table without having to scream, but also in that occasion I ordered some appetizers, and the server missed my appetizers, she couldn't hear me over the music, and was only when we got our main entrees that we asked for an appetizers and she was like oh you didn't order, and I was yeah I did, but at that point we have our food and we were ok. Overall my experience has been positive, and see myself going back if I'm in the area. Recommended

    This our first time eating Columbian. The food was delicious, and a lot, the meal we ordered was for two and could have easily served 3 or 4. Our waitress Genesis was very friendly and professional and helped us understand what we were ordering and as you could see in the pictures was a lot. The atmosphere was lively, got a little loud as a dance group came into have a meal. I highly recommend this restaurant when in Orlando.

    Mini-Empanadas - Pollo / Carne
    Yolanda M.

    I was honestly excited to try this place out. Being Colombian it's always great to find a new Colombian restaurant in the area. I'm sad to say I was completely underwhelmed. We had a 7:30 reservation and our food didn't come out until almost 10pm! Not sure if our waitress forgot to put our order in or what but the wait was insane. They were not even that busy to say that they were backed up. There were several groups, many celebrating birthdays which is what my family and I went there for as well. They do this big celebration for birthdays which is fun... but they really need to figure out the volume on their systems bc it was either deafening or you could barely hear it. The restaurant itself has a nice vibe. Then the bill came... and wow was it WAY overpriced for what it was. The food was not even great! Under seasoned. I am sorry to say I would not return here... I'd rather take the 45 minute drive down to "Oh Que Bueno" any day of the week.

    Oh Que Bueno !! This…read morespot never misses !! Whew. I ordered the pork chops and my mom order the flank steak which came with rice and beans. The food came out quick. It was bushy because we went on Friday night but the food came out quick in my opinion. The inside of the restaurant is nice and clean the staff is very welcoming. Like it feels like a family gathering!! My food was 5/5 Will I return OF COURSE!!

    came in for a late lunch with my family and unfortunately the experience was extremely…read moredisappointing. The service was unacceptable from the beginning. Our order was taken, everyone's food arrived, but my meal never came out. When I asked about it, the waitress appeared to realize the mistake but did not take accountability. Instead, I was told she would "check in the back," and 15 minutes later she returned with my food claiming it had been there all along. To make matters worse, my daughter ordered her churrasco medium, and it came out well done. My drink was also forgotten. Mistakes happen, but what was most disappointing was the lack of ownership, communication, and effort to correct the situation. I asked to speak with a manager, but it seemed like the request was ignored or avoided. Coming from someone who has managed restaurants before, it is disheartening to see this level of service and lack of accountability. Unfortunately, based on this experience, my family and I will not be returning.
