After eating here for so many years, the churrasquito, rice and beans is still made the same--Delicious!!! One of the best and flavorful skirt steaks and the portions are big. The ladies there were attentive and the food came out quickly. I am sad that the price went up drastically to $29, but it's still worth coming here once in a while. Always happy and full when leaving here. I would be sad if this place ever closed as this place brings good memories. My husband has been coming here since he was a kid, and when a churrasquito was only $8 :(

Realmente desilusionado con la comida colombiana que venden acá, pedí una carne asada y una sopa de carne, (carne sin sabor, sin sal, sin adobo nadaaaaa y así se la sirven a los clientes, para rematar fría y dura, las lentejas horribles sin sabor y son recalentadas por que esas si me las sirvieron hirviendo y cuando una comida es recalentada la tienen que calentar más de lo normal para descongelarla) la sopa sin sabor. Pague $23 dólares por esta comida. NO recomiendo este lugar, no vengan a este restaurante porque es perder su dinero y pensar que la comida colombiana es fea, feo es este lugar. También agregar que ni lavan bien los cubiertos, todos llenos de mugre (comida) que desagradable, me toco pedir cubiertos desechables porque me dio asco. Este lugar debe ser inspeccionado por el departamento de salud, no tiene higiene este lugar.

Buenas noches, primeramente la actitud que tuvo la mujer Rubia ya sea la dueña o empleada fue muy desagradable tan temprano y mas de una vez lo ha sido. Segundo , me dio un pan que ya tenia varios dias vencido y en vez de explicarme que no habia prefirió darmelo dañado y considero que en un lugar de comida hay q tener mucho cuidado lo que uno les sirve a las personas que van a comprar. Cuando fui a llevar el pan vi a la señora que volvia con una bolsa de pan frescos y solo por eso acepte el pan atras. Tiene un cliente menos porque prefirio darme el pan dañado a decirme que no habia que la esperara un momento para irlo a comprar.

Food is always good as well as the service, but on this 11/14/2022 I order cell phone 1 bandeja paisa, 2 morcillas, y 6 empanadas de carne, and 3 lollypops. I calculate a Price of like 46.00 without looking at the menu price. I belief the girls told me 46.00 But know I see a much higher price. I will definitely will not go there again. I recommend to review the credit card receipt before you leave. Recomiendo revisar su recibo a fondo...
