This restaurant is one of the best Colombian restaurants I have been to in Texas. The appetizers are amazing and really large, so big that last time i went I even debated if i wanted a main dish or not. The aborrajado,a fried mix of plantain and cheese, was my favorite. Both sweet and savory at the same time. The empanadas are large and with their homemade aji (spicy sauce) it made it a perfect beginning for the afternoon. The juices are also pretty good I recommend Maracuya made with water if you want a refreshing cold drink with a nice sour taste in the end. All the juices can also be made with milk instead of water making them a little bit thicker almost like a fruit milkshake. The main dishes are all delicious my favorite being the churrasco and the arroz con pollo (both also really really big). The desserts could be a little better but after eating so much food I never have any space for the dessert. The whole meal is really filling and i have never seen a table that did not leave without a take away bag. I hope if you decide to go you enjoy it as much as I do.

Pros: Large portions, amazing appetizers, friendly waiters, friendly chef, small so personal service

Cons: If packed plates take a little while

My boyfriend and I tried this place recently because it was close to my home and the menu sounded pretty tasty. I have to say that it was better than what I expected. Their soup of the day (I can't remember the name, it had a piece of corn on the cob in it) was amazing. He didn't care so much for the breaded steak but my arroz con pollo was really good. The relleno de papa is a must-try, as are the empanadas.

Pros: The food.

Cons: A little confusion with the bill (we used a coupon) but nothing that wasn't solved quickly. The Tres Leches wasn't what I am used to. It was dry.
