No frills amazing Columbian food. Seriously food like your abuela would make. The coconut rice is so good that you will be sad that you can't fit more in your belly. Together with the black beans it makes a beautiful meal. Top it off with platanos/maduros for a sweet finish.
We stopped in here to get lunch while our vehicle was being worked on. We got takeout of Mojo pork, chicken (Caribbean style) black beans, lentils and plantains. Also got a couple guava pastries for breakfast that were awesome. Generous portions and great flavorful food. I’d come back in a heartbeat.

I think it’s the best Spanish food, at least they try. The people working here are always amazing, but the bandeja paisa was bad. Maybe they had a bad day or something but overall I like it
