I won't lie, I was initially turned off by the outside look and we were first in the restaurant (empty restaurants are never a good sign); however, my original trepidation was immediately laid to rest when our waitress came.

The arepas were fantastic, cheese on top was melted perfection, and the tamales were bursting with flavor and the was moist and delicious. I would highly recommend a stop here, just make sure to bring cash.

The service is friendly, and feels genuine, and the ambiance is almost as if you were in Colombia! There's usually some Spanish football on the TV which adds to the authenticity of the restaurant. It's always full of Colombians, and other spanish speakers, which could be a little daunting for some, but it's evidence that they do a good job with the food! The empanadas taste great, and of course come with the great spicy salsa verde, super tasty. I ALWAYS go for the Bandeja Paisa, and I'm satisfied every time! The meat is good, although it can be a little over cooked at times, but not often. The rice, arepa, egg, beans and plantain are always cooked perfectly (I think they've had a lot of practice)!! The drinks choices are great, you can even order a Refajo (recommended) which is kinda like beer with Irn-Bru. Tastes great with all the meat on a Bandeja Paisa! They also have some great juices which you can have with milk or water. I usually get the Maracuja with water... refreshing! To say the prices for food are reasonable is a real understatement. £12 for Bandeja Paisa of this quality is awesome! If you're ever in Shepherds Bush, check this place out. Be warned, they close unusually early on Sundays, around 7pm.

A quaint little homely Colombian restaurant in the heart of Holloway Nags Head's market with decor…read moresimilar to an old English cafe with bright orange painted walls which added a nice charm to it. Both the staff there were very humble and accommodating, working non stop to dish up delicious plates of Columbian food at portions big enough to feed two and all at affordable prices. At the front of the counter were a lovely selection of starters containing many unusual and delicious looking Colombian street foods. I say unusual but that is because I have not seen many of these delicacies in London before. Chorizo on cornbread This was okay. I think the cornbread let it down a bit being quite dry and bland but the chorizo itself made it worthwhile. Made from grounded meat and spices the texture was very moist and creamy, tasting much like processed meat. But I liked it and the heat built up after each bite making it quite spicy. Beef empanadas Very different to a lot of the Spanish versions I've had as the filling was more fluffy due to the addition of mash potato in it too instead of being very meaty. It was very flavourful, comforting, with the beef giving it the oomph of flavour it needed. The soft texture was a lovely contrast to the crispy cornmeal fried batter too which sadly started to become slightly hard and chewy from being left out too long and then reheated. But for the cheap prices they're charging, I am not complaining. Papas Rellanas (stuffed potatoes) These were definitely the highlight of our meal. Fried potato balls made of mash potatoes stuffed with rice, beef and onions. It starts off being crispy before you break the thin fried outer shell and reach into the lovely generous soft fluffy filling. It was seasoned perfectly with mild spices, adding complexity and depth to the ground beef and sweet onions. Comfort food at its best Pollo a la plancha A delicious plate of wholesome food. For someone who doesn't like chicken breast I was so surprised at how much I loved this dish. It was obvious that the chicken was marinated for long hours to give out the lovely mild savoury spices against its natural sweet flavours with a lovely hint of smokiness as a result of being beautifully grilled. It was succulent and tender too. It came with a lovely side of braised red beans, cooked till fluffy and soft and seasoned perfectly. Salad helped reduce the stodginess as well and adding some crunch to the dish and a lovely juicy plantain for some sweetness. All accompanied with fluffy rice and a runny fried egg. Bandeja Paisa A gigantic platter of food consisting of fried pork belly, two grilled beef, grilled chorizo, a fried egg, fried bread, stewed pinto beans, plantain, a slice of avocado and salad. It was delicious and every part of it. The pork belly was delicious. Being fried you have a lovely contrast of the crispy outside and the soft tender inside with good fatty boys melting in your mouth. Beef were beautifully marinated, smoky and although required a bit of teeth work they were very enjoyable to bite through its rich flavours. Chorizo were lovely with its sweet spices and meaty texture. Everything else was great too, either all fresh or cooked perfectly. For £12 it was a bargain especially when it fed the both of us and we even had some leftover to takeaway. I think I found a hidden gem as I have been trying to find more information on them on the internet but there is minimal information about them. Yet the place was packed the whole time we we were there and staff were ever so accommodating. It's not a place for a first date though as the market it is in (Holloway Nags Head) can be a a bit rough sometimes and the restaurant itself is quite run down with poor paint job. However for a bit of change to the usual and for authentic Colombian food and cheap budget eats, I highly recommend this place and I will be back soon.

Nice little cafe which I've walked passed a million times…read more Staff are very friendly and welcoming as you enter. Extensive menu options to select from which, I knew from my first visit that I would be back to try out all the dishes I couldn't fit in that day. Generally not a 3 course lunch meal kinda girl but here I feel compelled to make the full selection. Gluten free conscientious restaurant but you do not really notice. Meat dishes are tender and juicy with the portion sizes of a good volume. Their drinks menu is also very extensive with cocktails, hot drinks and beers. The food menu also comes with an accompany photo sheet so you can have an idea of what you are ordering rather than just eyeing up what comes out of the kitchen. We did have to book a table on the first time we went which was around 3ish. Second time we went a little later and there was availability without having to book. Additional plus is that they take Tastecard on a Saturday which is always a bonus.

There were a few Spanish speakers in when I was in there which does add to the atmosphere. The staff do start conversations in Spanish but quickly help you out with their English, which is much better than my Spanish. "dos cervezas, por favor" Anyway they have a helpful menu which gives a good description of the food they offer. The food is genuine Venezuelan and whilst I could not see the chef I imagined her to be a small older lady. The food was very filling, we went the whole hog and went for three course. The starters all seem to be available with either chicken, beef or pork fillings/toppings. We sampled the Pastelitos and the Tostones which were very tasty. For mains we had the Arepa, which once you get used to the corn bread roll it is very tasty. We also had their national dish, Pabellon de Pollo. I think the actual traditional dish is served with beef but we got the idea. They have a good range of drinks, both alcoholic and non alcoholic. They had some interesting looking milk shakes which I will have to try another time. The food was good the service was good as was the atmosphere. I will definitely be back to sample some of the other delights on the menu. If you want to go on a Saturday best ring in advance as tables are limited!! You have been warned.
