My friend was in town with his father for some difficult medical tests at National Jewish. The…read morestress of the tests and the concerns over memory problems had understandably been making his dad anxious. So, we decided to take him for a relaxing evening for some "home cooking;" his dad is from Colombia. I'd driven by this place for years, always thought it was cute, but never had been in to try it out. Well, the inside is even cuter than the curbside! We were quickly greeted and shown to a table. It was around 8 on a Friday night. The service was just what my friend's dad needed, joking around in Spanish and answering random questions that an older person might have when seeing food they grew up with and hadn't seen in a while... and, then, the food. I'm not familiar with Colombian cuisine, so I wanted to try something traditional. The presentation was sizable and I really like color on a plate. Then, it was flavorful and filling?! YUM. We walked out of the experience laughing and purely delighted at having had a great night in sharing a unique experience. Strongly suggest folks swinging through, when you're in the neighborhood... or, give yourself a special occasion and make a trip!

I didn't have anything as I was waiting to get dinner a little later but my friend wanted to order an empanada they didn't yet have ready so he got a different one instead. We sat down to watch the game and after he finished his empanada, they brought out the original one he asked for at no charge bc it was finally ready. It was soooo sweet and completely unnecessary, they just went above and beyond bc they wanted to. I recommend this place wholeheartedly and the vibes are great for World Cup matches. Just a bunch of good people all around here - staff and patrons

After eating lunch yesterday this neighborhood gem was across the street. I wanted something to…read moretake home and eat for a snack later.

It was happy hour so we lucked out, and they also had a holiday cocktail menu. For drinks we had the pisco sour and the frozen margarita mix as well as the grinch hot chocolate and the champagne with mezcal. Everything was delicious; however, I didn't realize the champagne and mezcal would be a glass of champagne plus a shot of mezcal on the side. Other than that the place was a hit. We also ordered some salchipapas which were a little spicy but super delicious. The happy hour portion was perfect to share with 2 people.

Wagyu tartare was also good, but you need to make sure you're including some bread in every bite, otherwise you'll blow your head with mustard. Horchata was delicious. Food took a while. I know it was dinner rush, but I feel like similar establishments don't take as long.

the location is outside of my typical area, but i was curious to try the empanadas…read more the restaurant was clean and quiet, there is plenty of seating and ample parking. the empanadas - i had one each of the chicken and beef. they were finger-burning hot, even after 15 minutes of letting them sit to cool, but i was so excited to try them, so i had to dig in regardless of the burn they were pretty greasy & small. the beef was really good. the chicken was stuffed with a tiny trace of chicken and i dunno what else, maybe masa, but they are definitely mostly filled with the other ingredient and way too little chicken, so it was hard to judge the taste and texture of the chicken. the corn "shell" was nothing to write home about. so-so. it was reasonably priced, but the portions were teeny. the salsa provided was a cucumber-ish relish or similar, refreshing and not spicy at all. it was just ok, or may be a better accompaniment with a different dish. i may go again, to try a few of their dishes & if we go back, i will certainly update my review

The ambience is strictly plain, but the outdoor tables with umbrellas would be great on a nice warm day. I'll be back!

She soon livened things up and I've been enjoying this charming spot ever since. Tonight's dinner was, unfortunately, a little inconsistent. Our entrées were great and very flavorful, although both were a bit dry and bland. They definitely could have used more of a kick. I had the Puerco Frito (fried pork) which came with garlic mojo, sauteed onion, moro rice (white rice cooked with black beans), and fried yuca. The mojo sauce was very disappointing. It tasted of nothing and seemed to be only a neutral vegetable oil with a bit of garlic. Where was the bitter orange, tangy olive oil, or spice blend? None of these were to be found. Definitely not authentic. However, the pork was still tender and savory, the moro rice was great, and the yuca fries were delicious. I added some of the mango habanero mojo from the appetizer and that pepped up the pork quite a bit. My friend had the Pan con Bistec which is a pressed sandwich on authentic Cuban bread with steak, onions, and [optional] Swiss cheese. The steak was very tender and the sandwich had a good mix of flavors, but again was somewhat bland and dry. The tiny pitcher of chimichurri was only a partial help. She also added some of the garlic mojo from the appetizer. Too bad this was so bland. We started with the Mariquitas. The plantain chips were great. The guacamole was good. The garlic mojo was disappointing as I've mentioned. The mango habanero mojo was better, but had very little spice. I had a Mojito which was awful. Totally unbalanced with too much sugar, too much rum, no taste of lime, and mint that was not muddled properly. Very disappointing. We finished with a very nice flan in a delicious caramel sauce. The staff was extremely gracious and efficient. We sat in the back room of the main building. The night was a bit warm, but the doors were open and we enjoyed a gentle breeze. I've listed a lot of quibbles, but overall we enjoyed our dinners.
