It was a bit pricey at $10 but i didnt mind the price since I enjoy supporting family run businesses. The cafe was small but had a cozy and welcoming atmosphere with kind staff.

Only nitpick is that I wish I got a real plate instead of a paper one since I was dining in, but it's not a dealbreaker. Will be coming back to try the Colombian iced coffee cuz that looked heavenly.

The tamale was probably the best I've ever had because of the size and the masa was cooked well in a sauce which ensured it was tasty and not dry like so many I've had before. I also had a vegetarian arepa topped with arugula, fresh slices of tomato, sauteed onions and queso fresco. A blackberry jugo finished off my meal perfectly. Since my friend had a couple empanadas and they looked great, I bought a few to take home for lunch the next day. At $3 a piece, they are worth it based on the texture of the pastry and the ratio of filling to shell. This is a great little shop with a great selection of snacks owned by a boss lady. I will be back on my next visit to Koreatown.

The Classic Churrasco sandwich will blow your socks off. Add a friend egg over easy and enjoy! Seriously, no other sandwich place in Toronto beats their Classic Churrasco sandwich IMHO. The service was great. The Brazilian lady working there is friendly and courteous. The outdoor patio furniture is very basic though. They should invest in nicer outdoor patio furniture. And please, get better-tasting beer on tap. Oh yeah, and make it colder. You serve barely cold beer. On a hot summer day, I want to enjoy a pint of ice cold beer, not barely cold beer. Ask the Brazilian lady working there how cold the beer they serve in Brazil is. It's ice cold, the way it should be, not barely cold like most places in Toronto serve it. Anyway, my rant is over. Go to Completo and enjoy the best sandwich ever!

It really is pretty remarkable just how many options exist in our fair city for global cuisine. We…read morewalked into La Pasiva around lunchtime on a weekday and were greeted warmly in a language that I absolutely do not speak. It was pretty great. After perusing the lengthy menu, we decided to share a couple of things: Our first item was a plate consisting of two hot dogs wrapped in ham and smothered in cheese atop a fairly substantial pile of french fries. This is certainly an interesting dish that would have easily been enough food for us. The cheese wasn't super hot by the time we got the plate, unfortunately, and the hot dog probably could've used some kind of sauce to cut through the saltiness of the wiener and the ham. Still, I can't say I didn't enjoy eating this and the kid in me would've loved it. We also got a dish that contained a salad with balsamic dressing, a pile of potato salad, and a thinly-cut piece of steak with a fried egg placed on top. This was definitely the clear-cut winner between the two plates of food, as the steak was tender and delicious and certainly improved by the aforementioned egg. The salad was also quite good, but the potato salad was much, much better. It was actually one of the better potato salads I've eaten in a while (and I don't know that I've ever eaten one where the potatoes were cut in small cubes). La Pasiva is definitely worth a visit if you're in the mood for trying something quite different from the norm.

Tasty food. It was my first time having Uruguayan cuisine, so I didn't know what to expect. I had…read morethe Chivito here, and it was quite nice!

My partner and I were visiting the neighborhood and saw this place from the park. The place looked…read morefun and inviting, so we decided to come inside. The space was small yet fun- the decor was colourful and there were a few tables available (that could seat around 5-6 people). We were greeted warmly by a young man behind the counter. He passed a copy of the menu, so that we can decide what to order. After a few minutes, we went back to the counter and ordered three items: a cheese empanada, a chicken & cheese arepa, and canelazo (tea with cane sugar and spices, cold). We were informed that it will take 10-15 minutes for the food to be prepared, so he gave us the drink first. It was lightly sweet and cool, very refreshing on such a hot day. Then the food came and we picked them up at the counter. We could not wait to try them! The empanada was delicious- crispy on the outside and cheesy on the inside. However, we felt that there could have been more cheese, so that the ratio of cheese and the exterior (cornmeal) would balance out. The chicken & cheese arepa was good- the ingredients were prepared with care and it came out hot. However, its size was very small in comparison to the price. Inside, there were only three small pieces of chicken and two small pieces of hot dog, with some corn and cheese. Even though there was garlic sauce on it, it tasted quite bland. The most challenging part was holding onto it while eating it- it was wrapped in aluminium foil (which transfers heat), so having another layer of wrap would have been better. Overall, it was a good experience- we had a fun time talking and eating. It is a lovely addition to the neighborhood, so drop by and check it out!

Egg was a bit overdone & arepa was decent though somewhat crispy  Beans were decent. Plantain was so-so (not crispy or sweet). Pork tenderloin was pretty tasty but tough & dry especially for a tenderloin. Rice was decent, with a slight flavour, but a bit mushy. Plantain was crispy. The restaurant interior was decorated quite nicely but was very warm (in summer) & service was disorganised & some servers didn't speak English well so communication was sometimes difficult. I asked if the pork tenderloin had a sauce; they said no but it came with a tomato & peppers sauce. They also billed me wrongly.

Incredibly delicious food, authentically Colombian, big portions, and amazing value for money. The…read moreseafood dishes are filled with various different kinds of high-quality seafood to the brim (more protein than rice). All the staff are so friendly - from the waitstaff to the chefs / owners and kitchen staff, everyone in the restaurant seems to exhibit the Latin American hospitality and friendliness. The place feels homey, cozy, and festive with the music in the background (from the TV screen on the wall), and big photos depicting different places in Colombia along the wall. Ambience is very laid-back and casual, with amazing food that tastes homemade and authentic. It took a while for the food to cook and come out (about 40 minutes) - mostly because of the Cazuela de Mariscos (seafood soup) that took the longest to cook. It was also during a very busy time on a weekend. They seemed to have a constant flow of incoming catering and take-out orders (a good sign), and the restaurant itself was packed. All / most mains come with coconut rice, salad, and tostones (fried plantains). As for drinks, you can order freshly squeezed juices in either water or milk. We ordered the fresh strawberry & blackberry juice in water, as the one in milk would make it more like a smoothie. Each juice order comes in a jug (whether it be a small or large jug). This came as a surprise to us - really good value for such a large volume of juice ($6 for a whole "small" jug that turned out to be quite big, enough to refill each glass a few times for 2 people). The juice itself tasted fresh, natural, and refreshing. Dishes that we tried: 1) Filete de Tilapia con Camarones (grilled tilapia fish fillet & shrimps with coconut rice, plantain, and salad) - Big pieces of fish and lots of small shrimps, in a very delectable sauce. 2) Arroz Marinero (seafood rice with plantain & salad) - Loved this dish. The rice was a bit soupy which I liked. It was a bit like a soupy paella (including the rice) - very delicious and packed with various kinds of seafood. 3) Cazuela de Mariscos (seafood soup with coconut rice, plantain, and salad) - Very creamy soup, like a chowder. I'm not a big fan of chowders / cream-based soups in general, but others liked it and said this was good. 4) SIDE: Ensalada (House Salad) 5) Arepa de Chocolo con Queso (sweet corn dough with cheese) All of the main dishes were EXCELLENT - loved the mixed seafood (fish fillet, shrimps, octopus, squid, etc.). There was so much seafood in every dish. In most places, you get more carbs / rice compared to the protein. Here, it was the opposite. The coconut rice was a bit dry but it's decent - good to soak up the sauces of the main dishes. The salad is just shredded cabbage and carrot with big sliced tomato. I was a big fan of the salad dressing (some creamy mayo-like dressing), but luckily the dressing was only at the top of the salad (the bottom part of the salad remained fresh and crunchy, which I liked). We ordered the Arepa de Chocolo con Queso for to go. It was different than the Venezuelan arepa that I'm used to. The Colombian arepa seemed to be sweeter and more buttery. It probably would've been better if it was eaten right after it was freshly made, and while it was still warm. There was a lot of cheese in the arepa, giving it a nice salty and savoury contrast to the sweet corn dough. After you're done the meal, you go up to the counter to pay (instead of having the bill brought to your table). Great food overall - I would not hesitate to come back.
