Authentic Colombian Gem in San Diego
My experience at this restaurant was truly special. From the moment I walked in, I felt the warmth and care that goes into everything they do. The food is authentic Colombian food, and you can taste that in every bite.
My go-to dishes are always the bandeja paisa, sobrebarriga, and calentao, and they never disappoint. The bandeja paisa is hearty and perfectly balanced, the sobrebarriga is tender and full of flavor, and the calentado is pure comfort food done right. The sides are just as incredible.
The arepas con queso are soft and cheesy, the buñuelos are perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the empanadas are next-level — especially when paired with their ají sauce. That sauce is unreal. You can tell the food is made with love, tradition, and pride.
Everything feels homemade and welcoming, and that’s what makes this place stand out. If you’re looking for true Colombian food in San Diego, and a warm, homey atmosphere, this is the spot. Highly recommend.

Polluting Sidewalk and Horrid Smell
My experience at this restaurant was extremely negative due to the grease polluting our sidewalk and drain. It made the sidewalk slimy and the smell was horrid, leaving stains. The overall atmosphere was unacceptable.

Excellent food, worth the wait
My experience at the restaurant was with a group of 3-4 people. The food was excellent, receiving a perfect score of 5. The atmosphere was also highly rated at 5.
While the wait time for the food was a bit longer than expected, it was ultimately worth it. The service was rated 4, and the price per person was between $20–30.

Stellar Colombian Food and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was stellar, and the service was equally impressive. I tried the arepa, ajiaco, and mini bandeja paisa, all of which were incredibly delicious and very filling.
I highly recommend this place.

Special Empanadas & Home-Cooked Feel
Even though I moved away years ago, I still think of this place. I'm not sure if they still make them the same, but the empanadas were special. They weren't just one meat with no other details.
The Pollo was amazing. I pretty much ordered the basics, but it felt like home cooked food. I love it so much.
