    Came here to celebrate a friend's graduation. There were over 20 people and the service was excellent. The food came out promptly. It has a fun ambiance. It's a little like a sports bar, there are several big screen tvs with sports on. The food did not blow my mind but it was good... except the frijoles (beans), those were absolutely AMAZING. There's a lunch menu with more affordable prices.

    I've been in Kendall for 10 years and always noticed this place because it's right next to the ice arena. I remember trying it years ago and thinking it wasn't that good. Recently, I visited for the Copa America event, and WOW! The quality has improved so much. They have great drinks, appetizers, and food. We tried different menu options, and everything was tasty. They even offer Colombian aguardiente and beer. The ambiance was amazing. They organized the Copa America final wonderfully, with a vibrant atmosphere and lively decorations. The music added to the festive mood, and the staff was incredibly attentive and efficient despite the huge crowd. The place was buzzing with energy, and it was clear they put a lot of effort into making the event special. The seating was comfortable, and the layout allowed for easy movement even with so many people around. I will definitely be checking out their live events in the future and returning for their great Colombian cuisine. This place has really turned things around, and I'm excited to see what they do next.

    Food, excellent. Service, I went during the week and they had one waitress. It was a Wednesday, she was great but she was the only one so made it a bit slow. Ambiance: I chose this place for my book club meeting, which was ideal before 9 o'clock. But after nine we couldn't hear ourselves talking. They have music and then a live singer. It was still great and we loved the music but we couldn't talk about our book lol. Food was amazing though.

    Chicken and pasta

    Went to El Gran Bamboo for a Valentines show "pa calzones a calzoncillo" very enjoyable. I recommend this show. Stella Flores "la dama de la canción " was fantastic. Great voice and showmanship. Our server Gustavo was very hospitable, galant and sympatico. We had the chicken and pasta. It was very tasty. The cheese Alfredo cream was delicious in taste but a little to much, over powered the spaghetti which was perfectly cooked. It was a wonderful evening all around. Great atmosphere Beautiful and roomy restaurant.

    We had the bandeja paisa which was a little pricey at $14 in comparison to other places nearby.

They boast both indoor and outdoor seating with the same aesthetic and nods to Colombian culture, like the cute hats and sandals hanging on the wall. We were seated inside fairly quickly on the Sunday afternoon we came in. They were pretty busy, but the waiters were kind of hanging out at the bar, just chit-chatting. We were able to get one of the servers to look at us after a couple of minutes of sitting there. They brought us a little palate-opener of a small portion of a simple soup. They had a margarita special we tried, $5 frozen margaritas. The maracuya (passion fruit) one was a solid choice. I also ordered the mojarra frita with white rice, tostones, and salad. The rice was really undercooked. The waiter tried to appease us by bringing us more of the same uncooked rice. We were not the only table to say something about it because our neighbors confirmed they too received the same and were also unhappy. Other than that, the rest of my meal was great. However, I will say my mom was very upset with her experience and expressed that her chicken wasn't prepared well either.

We came in on a Monday around 6pm and ordered off the happy hour menu. The brussel sprouts were out of this world good! The sauce they put on it is sweet and lightly spicy, and the little bits of bacon were a happy, salty surprise. The beef and chicken empanadas were also delicious. The chicken had tons of cheese, but the beef was my favorite, it was so flavorful! We ordered the pistachio cake with white chocolate ice cream, and raspberry sauce. It was so refreshing and a perfect pairing of flavors. I wish there was a little more cake, but I'm not complaining. I will absolutely be back. And next time, I gotta try their cocktails.
