Orlando, FL. It was a sancocho kind of day. The gray skies, the bit of chill, and my tiredness made me stop here for a bowl of sancocho. Sancocho, with its rich stock; chunks of beef and chicken; hunks of yucca, potato and green plantain; a bit of mellow garlic; and a garnish of cilantro—-all comforted me like a mama’s hug. (Specifically this soup reminds me of Nildred, my Colombian coworker who’d buy sancocho when she felt under the weather and she’d eat it in the lunchroom.) This came with a plate of white rice, a cute little deep fried arepa, and a salad with homemade dressing redolent of olive oil and herbs. Everything was so good. There were no salt shakers on any table. To my surprise nothing needed salt. The flavors were excellent. I came around 5:00 pm on a Monday and dined inside. The music was fast-paced Latin music, not too loud, and images of Colombian beauties advertising Las Palmas flashed across the large screen tv on one wall. Young kids to grandparents, couples and singles all enjoyed their food in the smallish dining room that was about 50% full. My server was very sweet and checked in with me about four times. At the end of the meal I ordered a limonada coco, which was a slightly sweetened, tangy coconut cream drink. Around this time five servers came out to sing happy birthday to someone at the next table who was obviously a regular. If you’re missing Colombian home cooking you’ll find a nice welcome here. It’s right across from Gatorland, you can’t miss it.

I cannot explain why we don't co.e here more often. For our style of dining entertainment it is better during the daytime hours; most evenings it is a festive party atmosphere. But back to the review. The food is exceptionally good and is prepared with so much of the soul of Colombia 🇨🇴. I had the picanha that was cooked perfectly. I am not a fan of tostones so I substituted the maduros (fried sweet plantains). You know the food preparation is thoughtful when even the plain white rice is flavorful. My wife had the liver and onions. It had a huge amount of onions; just the way she likes it. I sampled tge liver and the only thing missing was a good brown gravy. But it was still delicious. The service that Nicol provided was phenomenal. She took time to help us understand the specials, even with my damaged Spanish. We are looking forward to our next visit.

The staff was nice but it took 2 waitresses to help because the assigned person didn’t speak English. Neither of the 2 knew what specials they had even though the special were playing on the TV’s throughout the restaurant! My husband and I read the reviews before arriving so I knew exactly what I wanted. The Red Snapper $28 with sweet plantains. After 2 attempts to order a margarita from the non English speaking waitress I finally got it…it had taste like I was drinking sugary water no tequila of any kind! Yo make matters worse the Red Snapper came out and I can smell it’s fishy old burnt grease smell coming out! The worst part was it was cooked very hard, I could only assume they were trying to cover up how old the fish was! Nothing fresh about it to into the grease it was in! Yes I took pictures! I couldn’t believe they served it! The waitress knew when I called her to the table what the problem was; I pointed out the foul odor of the fish and the texture along with the color! The fish just wasn’t fresh and poorly cooked! This place maybe simply good for a bar because the food doesn’t represent good quality. But again they have a live DJ and alcohol with nice and clean. I ended with a cold beer and my husband some cornbread appetizer and a water. I’m actually surprised the place looks like it use to bring in a crowed when I first moved to the area and passed by. My bill was $25 for the beer and appetizers and the sugar watered margarita. They certainly didn’t try and charge for that fish.

1st time here and would love to come back! They have a large patio with plenty of tables and designated servers - the music is quite loud but with a good vibe, so great if wanting a party atmosphere. The inside seating is more suited for families and those that don't want their ears blasted (that would be me lol). Servers were ok, little sparse on attention but not really bad. The food was delicious. Ordered the bean casserole with steak, and the beans were warm not hot, but very tasty. Also had the house plate for $20 - the sausage was really good, the pork part (don't know its name) was very fatty like belly pops, but super tasty. For appetizer we share the trio de camerones - superb 👌👏 loved it! Cocktails were expensive though, no bar menu so ordered a couple of margaritas to find out they were $18/19 each - ouch. Won't do that again.
