Arrived on a Sunday morning a half hour after opening time. What appears to be the front and main entrance of the place, visible from the street and with numerous grand looking “puertas” is actually a series of exit doors—with no indication as to where one might find the actual entrance! As we were leaving I noticed a local, also seeming totally perplexed, and pointed her to the rear of the building, with no “Entrance” indicated, and accessible only through a guard station and parking lot, which turns out to be the only Entrance. Bizarre. A disappointing assortment of eateries inside, in a stuffy but upscale looking warehouse atmosphere. Left without eating. I can thinks of lots of other ways to find good food, in a more appealing, easier to access venue.

This food court is the absolute best! So many options!!! There’s such a large variety of food options inside the food court. Traditional Colombian, American Food, Peruvian Food and many more. We tried the Colombian of course “El Rancherito” and it was absolutely delicious. It’s basically an open space restaurant with natural air. In the two story food court, hey have a lot of windows to let the air flow. The COVID-19 measures are pretty strict. In the restaurant, The staff was friendly, the service was really fast and food was even better. You will not be disappointed!

Best place for casual group gatherings so each person can eat what they want. Standout spots include: the Indian restaurant, Peru Wok (great ceviche) and the paella place. The cute dessert shop near the bathrooms on the first floor is perfect to end your night: amazing flan. Three downsides: it gets BUSY so hard to find a table; the live music can be a little TOO loud so you have to shout; there seems to be inconsistencies with closing hours. When I went, Milonga and the ice cream bar closed early, limiting the options for dessert.

Whilst visiting the food market Mercado del Rio, I ordered from la Cocina de Mama - a Colombian food vendor. This was my first lunch in Colombia so I wasn't totally sure what to get, but settled with meat and fries plus a cheesy side. The food and service was great. Mercado del Rio itself had a number of amazing looking vendors, as well as a great setup for drinks and sport with a massive television.

You walk haphazardly through Medellin and suddenly you end up here. A great place that reminds me of a little more international flair, there are good restaurants. There is actually also a fresh beer from the tap, which is really something rare here in Colombia. Yes, and what more can you say? I liked it a lot and the beer tasted good. I wish everyone who goes there a lot of fun.

This place is great for the atmosphere, the variety, and all the wonderful food you can get. If you have a big group or a diverse set of people, this is the place to go. Would be hard for someone not to find a style of food they like here. Warning if your indecisive like me you might be circling the place for a while trying to decide!
