It's my first time here. I happen to walk by while visiting another business in the same shopping plaza. I stopped on my way out. This is a cozy Colombian restaurant. It was not busy When I walked in. It was also a little bit before noon. There was plenty of seating available. I ordered to go. There is not bar or outdoor seating areas. I ordered their large soup of day which comes with rice, half of an avocado and a arepa. It's a generous portion. I had enough for lunch and dinner. I got lucky as today they were serving beef soup. It was delicious and tasted home made. It brought me back to grandma cooking days. I would definitely like to visit again for dinner. read more

Overall great experience. If getting the Bandeja Paisa opt for the churrasco cut. It was more tender and flavorful. The shrimp ceviche was great. Everything was fresh and brought to the table quickly. The mojitos were also great and not overly sweet (mango mojito was solid) Service 5/5 Food 4/5 (only bc the steak with the bandeja needed more flavor) Ambiance 5/5 read more

On a birthday trip and wanted to try some homemade, good Colombian and I'm glad i wasn't disappointed. From the flavor to the service, great. got the 2 different bandeja paisa; i got the mini & it came with the same exact sides the regular did but of course, less good but it was alooooot of food still. Honestly over all a 8/10, id give it 5 stars if i got to the other dishes. I got a maracuya juice & it was sooooo freshly delicious. read more

Ordered the bandeja paisa (the signature dish) and it was fantastic. In addition, tried the mondogo. So flavorful. I even had leftover for lunch today. The music and atmosphere emphasized the Hispanic culture which was lovely. The waitress was a great vibe as my guest and I were able to joke around and laugh with them. Phenomenal time highly recommend. read more

Cute spot, went in for breakfast and server was very attentive. Personally I would have liked a little more seasoning/flavor on the eggs but it was still good. The breakfast menu was a bit limited but again, it was good. They also serve some fresh juice type smoothies which I definitely recommend trying out! Give them a shot, you'll enjoy it. read more

Quiet little restaurant with great food. The servers didn't speak much English, which is fine, we made it work, but I was disappointed when they brought the check without asking if we were done/wanted dessert. When I asked for dessert, they said the kitchen had just closed, so I was out of luck. I ordered the parce burger, and it was phenomenal. I took a few bites as built and loved everything about it. With the size being so overwhelming, I did end up picking it apart and eating my favorite bits but would have eaten the whole thing as is if I could. I asked for no tomatoes, and it came with tomatoes. I guess, given the language barrier, there are worse things, but only because it's a preference and not an allergy. It does seem like had it been an allergy, and the kitchen closed shortly after we arrived, I might have been out of luck here, too. I would go back, but earlier in the day. I think it might be a 5 star review restaurant in that case. read more

Stopped by this Colombian restaurant in Orlando for a quick lunch and overall had a good experience. The food was flavorful and authentic definitely a great spot if you're craving something traditional. We ordered the bandeja paisa, which was delicious and well-prepared, but the price felt a bit steep for what you get. Still, the quality and taste made up for it. Service was quick and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming. Great option for a satisfying lunch if your in the area just be ready to pay a little more than read more

Bandeja Paisa - Estando en una mesa - Colombian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This is a decente place. I've eaten here a few times and my experience has been more than pleasant. The attention is great, good ambience and most of the food is really good, kind of pricey but you could afford coming here once in a while. The bandeja paisa is good along with the fried snapper and the Ajiaco. The Parce Burger was something I was waiting to have for a long time but is actually not Amazing, is just ok, now the size is pretty impressive but I what it has in size lacks in flavor. The empanas are tasty but $9 for 5 super mini empanadas is kind not worth it. Give it a try, I'm sure your experience will be satisfactory in general. read more

What a wonderful surprise. I was somewhat reticent to try it because the rating but I stopped in nonetheless as the location just happened to be convenient. I'm so glad I did. First, the service was great. The waitress was absolutely fantastic: she was pleasant, informative, and had a great attitude. I think, but don't quote me, her name was Alejandra or Adriana, something like that. The food was great! We had the soup (Mondongo) and the the Bandeja Paisa, pictured below. Both were absolutely delicious. I will say this as well, portion sizes are big. We could have easily shared either dish. If I wanted to be critical, I'd say the music was a little on the louder side but that's just me, as I prefer soft jazz. Nonetheless, the experience brought me back to my visits of Colombia and I will definitely be back. I highly recommend. Bon Appétit or better said...Buen Provecho! read more

My steak was overdone, but was still moist and tasty. The portions were good and everything tasted alright. The onions on top were a bit much, and the fries could have been seasoned better. The server was very friendly, but the atmosphere was just ok. Not bad, but not the best. read more

Bandeja Paisa - Steak, fried plantains, fries, and a side salad - Colombian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This restaurant is located in the Deerfield plaza off john young. I always come to it for tLa Fortuna bakery which is amazing, but this place caught my eye and so I gave it a try. It was fairly empty at lunch time with only one table occupied. I had to wait about 5 minutes to be seated as the staff chatted around the kitchen watching me. Food: I ordered the traditional plate called "Mini Bandeja Paisa" which the place is named after. On the menu, you get a "FULL" size plate for $17.99. I opted for the mini version of this for $13.99 so not to overea. I was surprised because the mini is 1/3 the size of an original and doesn't come with sausage nor blood sausage, but the price is only $4 difference. I was quite disattisfied as the rice was dry and hard, the meat overcooked and the only positive was the beans. I unfortunately cannot recommend this spot and would say PASS. Try the bakery down the way if in the area. Hopefully they improve or won't last long like the many other businesses that have occupied this spot. read more

Did a DoorDash so couldn't compliment on the service, but food came out on time and tasted delicious! Salad is fresh, meat are flavorful. The dishes look simple but somehow they just tasted delicious! Only thing we didn't like are the grilled plantains cake, they are a bit dry and hard, might also have to do with the fact that it's a delivery so we couldn't taste them fresh. Overall taste food! read more

Bandeja Paisa is a small Colombian restaurant located inside & in the back of Deerfield Plaza on John Young Prkway. Easy to get to from 417 and 528. We made reservations, but upon arrival, I realized that was unnecessary. We were running late, it did not matter, the place, which is decent sized, was empty except for 4 other guests. The server came right over and took our drinks order, water, fresh lemonade & papaya shake. Apps: empanadas- crispy outside, fluffy inside. Green, herby sauce served with them was very herby, spicy but really no flavor. Entrees: mini bandeja paisa, $13.99: white rice, beans, arepa(corn cake), pork chicharrón, steak, chorizo, avocado. Here is the good. The beans were great, creamy & flavorful. The steak was cooked nicely & tasted really good. Maduros were not super sweet but were fried nicely. The chorizo had good flavor but no spicy kick. Not good, the chicharrón. I do not like pork that taste & smells like pork; this did both. Also, were not as crispy. The arepa was bland, like no salt at all. Lomo Salteado, $20.99: steak with onions & jalapeños, with peppers & cherry tomatoes with ponzu sauce on fries and white rice on the side. This dish was good, except that I am accustomed to this dish with fries mixed with the steak not served on top. Dessert: tres leches, good. Sweet. Cake could have been fluffier. The service was really good. All the servers were attentive to our needs, requests. They were friendly. Overall not bad, small improvements & I may return. read more

The food was amazingly authentic TSIC and the service was welcoming. Go early, they run out of their delicious soup too quickly. Inside is small but able to effectively do social distancing.

I really loved the appetizers more than the meals here. The empanadas and fried yuca are the bomb! I highly recommend you try them! My shrimp meal was really salty. I ordered a coffee with my meal, but it came out cold. The cup sizes are pretty large. If I went again I would just order appetizers instead of a meal. ( that's how good those appetizers were!) We also ordered a grilled chicken meal which also came with salad and it was really good, cooked to perfection. read more

I wanted to really like this Colombian restaurant, as it is so close to my house, and always seems busy. However, I felt their menu to be grossly overpriced, for being in a strip plaza. The prices are comparable to a fine restaurant on Sand Lake Road. The food was just as expected. While I can't say it was a bad sample of Colombian Cuisine, I must say I've had better. Again, I think the pricing completely turned me off. read more

So shit waited a hour for the fucking food didnt even come with the drinks. A simple chocolate could not even get to my table due to the amount of people and saw other people getting drinks while i was waiting like a dumass.

This was a nice choice for an early dinner. The place was super busy and we waited almost an hour to eat. The service was not particularly good but the food kind of made up for that. I don't remember the name of the plate I ordered but it was tasty and came out fresh and hot. I think I will try it again and hold out making my final judgement. read more

This place is extremely overpriced, and the quality of the food is very low. Very little value for what you get. There are many Colombian restaurants that are much better than this place. read more

Came here to show my in-laws what Colombian food is all about....we each ordered completely different plates and we all came down to the conclusion that the food was good overall-nothing extraordinary but good. The service was decent and the food portions were just right, however, I was taken back by their prices. It'd be something more of like a splurge to come here than to make it a regular spot and I honestly don't know how I feel about that. Considering this place is nothing close to being a fancy restaurant, I wouldn't come here often unless you were really craving Colombian food. read more

We are traveling and everytime I have the opportunity to get a bandeja paisa, I get it. Well service was great but food was average, I got to say I have tried better. Flavor was to plain for my taste. Meat was too dry, chorizo tasted old like if it was frozen for long time. The juice was excellent. Unfortunately I'll be here only one time and won't be able to try something else. This review is based on only that dish. read more

Bandeja Paisa - A lot of food and great price! Meal for 2 - Colombian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Looking for new places to try my wife and came across this place. The employees were nice. The atmosphere was nice. The waitress did not seem so knowledgeable of the menu or appeared distracted. She was unable to explain the dishes and when we asked about drinks it was unclear to us what she explained. The food not great. The mango cocktail was frozen, refreshing but not sure it had any alcohol. The service was very slow. Half way through the meal our waitress disappeared and we had a new waitress. The amount of money we paid for our meals and drinks was not worth it. read more

This restaurant never fails. We ordered small bandeja paisa for lunch and it was exactly what we hoped for. The right food items and the right portions. We left satisfied. The servers were very attentive and brought our food quickly. The food was delicious too. I would continue to come here. The only drawback about this place is parking that can be tight during busy times but that's not the restaurant's fault. read more
