    Que Más Pues! Neon Wall The perfect Antioqueño backdrop bright, fun, and full of personality.
    Luis H.

    If you're craving real Colombian comfort food with a lively, welcoming vibe, La Fonda Sabaneta delivers from the moment you walk up. The place feels like a little corner of Antioquia colorful décor, friendly staff, and that warm "estás en casa" energy that makes the whole experience feel personal. Service was attentive and kind, the type where they check on you without hovering. The menu is playful and creative (the passport-style menu is such a nice touch), and the food comes out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The sancocho was the star hearty broth, tender beef, sweet corn, and all the traditional touches that make it feel like a Sunday at abuela's house. Portions are generous, and everything tastes homemade. Whether you're stopping by for a comforting meal or looking to introduce someone to Colombian flavors, this spot hits the mark. Authentic, flavorful, and full of charm.

    Don't miss this delicious mojarra frita on Wednesday's - 2 for $30 It's absolutely delicious

    We visited on a Tuesday and they have a picada special you get a pitcher of beer free. My husband and I don't drink beer but it to know for those that do. All the different meats were very well seasoned and tasted delicious, very good portions. All week they have a special different day. Definitely going back again! Our server Manuel was great that also made out visit a success!

    My friends and I randomly picked this place for lunch and drinks and we had a very pleasant experience. We ordered a mix of their steaks, margaritas, and the arepitas appetizer. Their steaks were good and the portions very generous. The arepitas appetizer was very small for the price so I would not order again. Drinks were good but not too strong. Our server was very friendly and the ambiance was chill and relaxed. I liked that we were able to stay for a while talking after our meal and were not rushed out. I would come again!

    Tengo una pregunta? Porque los potes de sancocho ya son tan pequeñas? No tiene nada de sopa. Antes tenía containers más grande y era más sopa. Lo mismo de relleno. Pero prefiero mi sopita por favor.

    Picadera Pequena
    Melanie L.

    YUMMY COLOMBIAN FOOD! Amazing spot, service, and food. Definitely recommend! Picadera Pequena is great to share between 1-3 people and was delicious. It comes with a variety of meats, fries, mini empanadas, and fried yuca. Waiter was friendly and attentive. Food came out in a good amount of time. Ambiance was very nice and good music as well.

    The food bandeja paisa was one of the best , my first time visiting this place, free parking nearby The gratuity is included 18 percent plus some taxes , but I almost gave them 2 stars because the waitress wanted me to give another 18 or 20 percent tip , on top of the one automatically included , what a bunch of thieves , they wanted me to give 40 percent tip in a crowded restaurant with no privacy , they made us feel bad and I said why do you want me to give tip again, Manager or owner , tell your waitress to stop stealing from customers, I'm going to return in few weeks , and if you tip policy persist , I'm going to charge my star review from 4 to 1 , Food bandeja paisa was very good, congratulations

    Location: West Flager, Miami Florida Ambiance: Nice place. Ideal to go with friends and have drinks and food. Food: bandeja paisa was great. They had a special 2x1. For 30$ They included empanada. The meat was delicious, tender Service: great. Yelp factor: look for the specials in food and drinks. Bandeja paisa is one of the best that I ever had outside Colombia

    Pechuga a la plancha con arroz, maduros, y frijoles.

    From the outside, Fonda Sabaneta is an unassuming stripmall hole in the wall restaurant. It's not until you step inside do you get to experience the vibrant and happening energy of this place serving up authentic Colombian fare, that seems to be always packed no matter the day or time. I made the mistake of going to Colombia 5 years ago and falling in love with arroz con coco. I have not been able to find it here in Miami until I stumbled upon this restaurant online. The first time we tried to eat here the wait was over an hour long so we ended up bailing. Finally the stars aligned and we found ourselves with a free evening and an available table outside. Without hesitation I ordered the fileto de pescado a la plancha with maduros, salad, and of course arroz con coco. Their version wasn't quite the same as what danced on my tongue in Medellin, but it was still quite a tasty edition to my fish. My guy got the grilled chicken with beans and rice. All in all it was a solid and fulfilling dinner, but I made need to book a plane ticket for my arroz con coco fix.

    I met up with friends at this restaurant to celebrate belated birthday. There was a special on Wednesdays for 2 orders of fried fish $30, comes with 2 sides. The presentation was out of this world in my opinion. I was fascinated on how a ticket stabber stand is used to help make the fried fish stand up. Genius idea! The food was freaking delicious! I also tried my friend's burger and it was out of this world. This was one of the best restaurants I've ever been to and the prices are great! Parking can be a pain in the booty in the front but there are more spots on the sides or the back. This restaurant is definitely worth your time and appetite! The service was great! The servers were super nice and patient.

    OMG, absolutely delicious! Went in at 3 pm on a weekday and the place was packed! My order was to go. Ready in 20 minutes. I ordered the bandeja paisa special (2 for $30). Without a doubt, the BEST BP ever. Everything was cooked to perfection. Kudos!

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.
