First time visiting with co-workers for lunch. A decent "hole-in the-wall" Colombian restaurant.

Pros: I tried the "Typical Colombian" under their breakfast menu, which included steak, rice and beans, corn pie, and scrambled eggs. Not bad for $9! Their portions are big! But I'm not complaining because I always love taking leftovers home to enjoy for another meal. I had asked for water and the waitress brought me a bottled water. I thought she was going to charge me for it, but she didn't! (Not sure if she forgot, or of they give out bottled waters for free, but I'm not complaining).
