My first visit here and hopefully not our last. The location is a little off the beaten path but the food was worth the drive. As you pull up to the restaurant, there are a couple parking spots in front bu the main lot is BEHIND where you first pull up, so go back that way and head inside. The food was incredible and the staff accommodating. The roasted/broasted chicken was the star, so moist and tender and flavorful throughout. But the seasoning on everything was amazing, so the carne asada, pork loin, and chicken quesadilla (crazy good flavor on the quesadilla) was spot on. The pork belly was the only miss for our family, but will definitely be back to gobble up everything else
Met a group of friends here for dinner (including a woman from Columbia who verified the authenticity of the cuisine). Service was fast and friendly, portions were generous. I usually eat vegetarian when dining out, and those options are very limited here, but they switched out the beef/chicken choice on the nachos to avocado, and it was a huge fantastic plate!
It is an entirely unexpected experience to drive to the middle of a trailer park overlooking the scenic South Beltline to enjoy delicious Columbian food, but life is strange that way sometimes. This picture is the Bandeja Paisa Rumbero, which is their standout flagship item. That's fried plantains, beans, rice half an avocado, a Columbian sausage, a steak cooked to order (delicious), and a huge segment of fried pork belly. It feels criminal getting two high quality meals out of one order, but I always enjoy leftovers after dining here. The staff is reasonably proficient in English and extremely hospitable. Highly recommended.
