I really enjoyed tasting authentic Colombian cuisine again after not being in Colombia for almost 7 years. The three issues I had were: the side dish of frijoles was cold, the jugo de lulo was too much water and not enough juice- it tasted like water, not lulo, and the chicharrón was not fried sufficiently, it was limp and just will have to be refried in my kitchen. What I enjoyed: the whole fried red snapper with patacónes, coconut rice, and fresh greens and the fresh lime wedges necessary for both the fish and patacónes. Service was efficient.
Food was good, flavor pretty authentic.. but wow.. prices are a bit high. I guess when there isn't much more around they can go high.... but place is overall good. But those prices, $24 for a bandeja paisa?!😐
