    Filete de Pescado a la Plancha
    Luciana A.

    Food was great! Loved their sancocho de costilla and their grilled fish. So many amazing foods to try from and it tastes fresh. Service was great everyone was kind and attentive. The place is quite small but I think it's cozy and welcoming. I've also had their empanadas before and they're honestly one of the best I've had. This place is my go-to for their empanadas. Their hot sauce is real spicy but delicious. Prices are also great compared to other rinconcitos. Overall would come here again to try more things. Check it out if you're ever in the area , they have a ventana to order for someone on the go.

    There's a lot of rinconcitos in the Kendall area, all of them of varying qualities of either super mediocre, actually gross, and fantastic. This one is easily one of the better ones. Simple food with a small menu, the definition of quality over quantity. You won't see pasta, fried rice, or anything like that here. All they have is quality colombian food for a super good price. I've been coming here since I was a kid, and I've eaten at a few other places since. I have never had a picada as good as theirs. It's honestly not even close. If you're having a big get together, I'd highly recommend getting it. Or if you just wanna share with one to two other people, the single picada is also great. Really love this place, I gotta go more!

    Sancocho is supposed yo be thick like a stew & made with pata de gallina (chicken feet)

    Don't waste your money. I ordered a Sancocho for delivery via Uber Eats. I set up the delivery time between 11:30am -12pm. A lady called me from the restaurant yo let me know that Sancocho is usually not ready until 12:30-1pm, ot she could substitute for chicken soup. I said I was willing to wait for the Sancocho, no problem. My food arrived at my door at exactly 11:30am. When I opened the container it was regular chicken soup, but they removed the chicken & put it in another container with plain white rice & a burnt arepa that had absolutely no flavor. The price of this dish is $13.95, which is ridiculous for soup. Add the delivery fee, taxes, tip, etc, I ended up paying $23.36...for bad soup. It doesn't even taste good. It is plain chicken soup! I called the restaurant & they just told me "that's how WE make it. Honestly , I'd even pay more for real Sancocho.

    Bandeja paisa with extra chicharrones instead of sausage
    Devona W.

    Love this spot. Food is great and price is just right. I recommend the Bandeja Paisa and the Short rib Sancocho. Make sure your try the cilantro sauce and pica sauce. Delish!!!

    Bandeja paisa con carne asada, arroz, frijoles rojas, salchicha, arepa, maduros, y chicharrón con un aguacate entero con lima.

    I'm going to start with the environment. The patrons themselves were so nice. They told us to sit with them, we conversed, and they too enjoyed the environment. It's a small restaurant, which stimulates patrons to foster a vibe of unity. I'm not Colombian, but even in their identification of my Dominican Spanish accent, the social attunement was amazing. I was immediately pleased with that alone. NOW, THE FOOD: Jesu Cristo con Dios que le conste: that food was DELICIOUS. My wife and I ordered a bandeja paisa with carne asada (roasted steak). My goodness! The arepa was crispy; the beans were not salty and flavored al gusto total; the rice was perfect; the maduros were delicious; and the aguacate--YO, let me not get started on the aguacate! We ordered one whole avocado, and it was too ripe to even believe what we had gotten. The complimentary sauce tableside was an amazing addition to the already delicious and well-cooked meal at hand. With a beer and jugo de maracuyá, the cherry on top of the metaphorical sundae hit every available spot within my anatomy. The servers were amicable, attentive, and conversational. The tip was well-deserved, and we WILL be returning.

    Picada Personal

    The "picada" is at least 80% potato and plantains. Very rare to find any steak and chicken. Terrible. Horrible picada. La peor que e encontrado en Miami. Si comen aqui, no compren picada

    Croquettes

    Was hungry and wanted to grab a quick bite. Their empanadas and tequenos are good. Croquettas- whole other story. Hard and burned in the outside AND inside. Looks like the whole batch was over cooked. :(

    Sancocho de carne y dos empanadas de carne deliciosas crunchy and hot
    Sheyla G.

    Such a great little Colombian restaurant. You can't go wrong with the Sancocho and empanadas. Delicious.

    Colombian empanadas are the bomb

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.
