Food here is excellent- and some waiters/ess are the best -just a few that lack that extra “amabilidad” that Colombians have… the music sometimes can be too loud for patrons .. but I guess bar patrons are happy. Over all it is a great choice in the area…

Walked in here as I've heard good things about this place and had a good experience for the most part! Waddling in at almost 40 weeks preggo, we were seated pretty much immediately around noon on a Saturday. Our server came around to take our drinks order while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. We scouted the menu to see if it was to our liking and they offered a variety of Colombian, Mexican, and some American dishes so we decided to stay. Ordered a Colombian coffee, Shrimp salad, tostones con guacamole, pargo frito, calamari, bandeja típica. Everything came out decently quick! Pargo Frito was omggg.. so crispy yet not oily and same with calamari. I didn't get heartburn like I usually do with oily foods so I took it as a really good sign. Toastones pairs so so well with the guac... salivating just thinking about that again. You also can't go wrong with the Bandeja Típica. Classic Colombian dish with a mix of steak, chicharrón, arepita, guac, chorizo, served with rice. Los todos fue muyyyy chimba. My only complaint is when I got up to look for the bathroom, I literally stood in front of two waitress and was totally ignored while they took their sweet time chatting to each other about whatever... which is fine like I don't care but it'd be nice if they acknowledged a first time patron needed help to find the bathroom. This is not reflective of our actual server - she was amazing and so attentive and constantly came to clear our tables (maybe a teeny bit rushed as we were still eating and the restaurant wasn't super full but nbd). Would add this restaurant on my list of contenders next time I'm in the area. The bar area looked like it would be a great time and overall great vibes!

First time coming here. The atmosphere was good and you can tell they get busy as you get into the later evening/night time . The food was good as were the drinks. Service was quick and portions were generous. I would recommend this to anyone looking to try a new spot to eat in queens.
