The food is the BEST COLOMBIAN FOOD you will ever discover! My favorite here is, OH MY GOD there's so many things... the Arepa de choclo, Morcilla, Pandequeso, all of which are famous Colombian baked goods. If you haven't tried Colombian food, you will be sure to enjoy it I promise you this!!!! read more

Best Colombian restaurant that I had ever tasted and best Colombian restaurant in Norwalk. Good service, good food and more!

dont go to this place!!!! they reuse the same food from the day before and its all spoiled , they should close down !!! i got sick from this place read more

Idk I'm increasing the stars as it's stellar in its class. They truly do have a wonderful bakery. I love the cheese breads. They have a nice breakfast and an all day hot bar so you can easily run in when you are hungry and be happily nourished and not wait. I like the anonymity of being the only English speaking girl watching the Spanish television. I get to go incognito, which I greatly appreciate. Norwalk really has a great Latin American restaurant presence these days. I fully support these businesses surviving and thriving. read more

My favorite Colombian restaurant in the area. Beats La Sopresa. The platos tipicos (typical dishes) are great and my favorites: Bandeja paisa (country platter), $10 - thin pieces of grilled steak, pork chicharron, an arepa, rice and beans, topped with a fried egg. A very filling meal, probably enough to be shared between two people. Carne Guisada, $11 - stewed beef served with potato, fried yuca, sweet plantains and rice. The huge chunks of tender beef with perfectly cooked potatoes were a hit and took me right into comfort land. Cerdo saltado - fried pork with fries and rice is also a great choice read more

Unless you speak Spanish, good luck. I speak & understand enough to get by but attempting to understand culinary terms, beside the obvious ones, make ordering cumbersome & eventually frustrating as zero of the servers (4 on @ a time) spoke a stitch of English. As for the food? It's just OK. Almost everything is deep fried. I had the arroz con pollo...mushy rice w frozen peas & cubed carrots w shredded chicken all bathed in a tomato-y sauce. Not anything reminiscent of the delicious arroz con pollo I've had in many Spanish speaking cultural restaurants. But to be fair Colombian isn't my favorite as far as Latino style food goes anyway. Service was slow but friendly. Portions are large & the price point low. read more

The food is delicious and the service is phenomenal!!! If you want excellent Colombian food in South Norwalk, Memos is the place to go!!!!

This is one of my go to places when I'm in the mood for latin style soups. Every day is dedicated to a different soup. The only one that I did not enjoy was thier fish soup, which is made with cod and was very salty. If your only interested in the soup, make sure to let them know because their version of a standard order includes a large portion of white rice. I usually opt out for the rice. On display, they offer a variety of empanadas, pork, blood sausage, yuca etc. The emanadas are very small and not too flavorful. I've tried the chicken and beef. The pork was so so. I have found that they sit in the display case for quite sime time. I've even seen them microwave them prior to serving. Heat lamps usually work well. Their grilled chicken is juicy and tasty. When you order the meal, you get a plate full of carbs...white rice and soggy french fries. As a bonus you'll get a piece of sweet spanish banana and a white disk. I'm still trying to figure out the nutritional value and purpose of this no flavor having thing they put with their meals. It has absolutly NO flavor. I'm told its made from white cornmeal. On one order, I was asked if I wanted some, which I quickly replied "NO, I don't like those." It was as if I said "BOMB." Long story short, I took the no flavor having disk as to not offend. One day I'll figure out what to do with that thing, other than spit it out of my mouth. Nice seating area inside. It's far from fancy, but nice enough to enjoy a meal while watching soccer. If your in the mood for a Columbian food eXperience...stop by and give a try. read more

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING, me and a team of workers on the project stopped here to get mid-day coffee and a lunch bite: the coffee was worse than Dunkin and also the food was stale and when trying to just eat the meats and NOT THEIR BAD BREAD the meat tasted so cheap and was full of fillers. I don't they get Boar's Head. FOR YOUR OWN SAKE HEAD AROUND THE CORNER TO HARBOE DELI CAFE!!! Much better, but not open as late read more

Absolutely horrible service! The food is mediocre. I asked for a large coffee and when I tried it, it tasted old. I asked politely if they could give me a fresh cup of coffee and the owner refused to change the coffee and he was extremely rude!! The workers were rude as well and had an attitude for no reason! I will never go back!! read more

The food isn't what you'd expect. It's a bunch of small items that are under the heating pads and they sometimes microwave things for you when you order. The food itself is amazingly good considering the price and the fact that it's been sitting out. Their chimichurri sauce is also great and on all of the tables. It's something great to have for breakfast or just to stop in really quick for a small bite. The only problem is they close at 8 and sometimes you really crave Memo's late at night. read more

Local known Colombian spot, food has fallen off big time, service is "OK" nothing to brag about, mind you I myself am Colombian and I've been to better places. This isn't a spot to rush over to. I would say the best time to eat here is for breakfast. The main plate that's worth going there for is the (recalentado) and order an "arepa de chocolo, make sure you tell them extra cheese and to PLEASE warm it up. Then you'll have a good breakfast. read more

Great place. Wide variety of choices service is always on. Although Colombian food is not on the top of my list nor an expert on this place is fabuolous read more

Our Family has been going there for years. Today we went and asked for some baked goods and the male server dropped some bread on the ground and then proceeded to pack it back into our to-go bag. Incredible!! After being years of patronsge through the various name changes it is safe to say we no longer give them our business. Nuestra familia ha hido a este restaurante por muchos años. Hoy fuimos y el hombre que nos atendió dejó caer unos pandequesos y procedió a empacarlos. Fue increíble. Hemos comido hay durante todos los cambio pero con una cochinada como esa nunca volveremos read more

I love this place! I have eaten here numerous times and have never had an issue with the food. It's the closest Colombian spot to me. The food is really good. I think it's fairly priced so I go here every time I'm craving Colombian food and I'm not in NYC. I know this place only takes cash so I always bring cash. read more

The food is good and inexpensive. However, it's very greasy. Take out is wrapped in paper and put into a paper bag. By the time you're ready to eat, the grease has soaked the bag. read more

Fantastic place! I drive 20 minutes about twice a month just to eat here. I've been here over a dozen times and I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal here. Great portion sizes and great prices. Wish there was one where I lived. CASH ONLY!!! read more

I usually go here to eat lunch with my family after sending off a package. I live a bit farther so whenever I see a Colombian restaurant I rush to get a parking spot. Their soups are outstanding! The bandeja paisa is to die for with everything included. Once I step through those walls I feel right at home, once you walk in you see this beautiful colorful mural of Colombia. The waitresses are very kind. Overall the service is great, I really recommend this to anybody who wants to try anything new! I give this 4 starts due to the problems I ran into with finding a place to park my car. The business is located on a busy street. read more

We found this place by accident and it really was excellent! I had a stuffed donut type of thing and a had a taste of a jelly ring thing. It was soooooo good. A definatey a delicious find :) read more
