“ The best Colombian sazón I’ve had in Tampa so far! Authentic Colombian food with excellent quality and plenty of options. We tried the chicken pasta soup and the grilled chicken breast, both served with two sides—we chose plantains and beans, and they were absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to go back and try the bandeja paisa! We also ordered empanadas as appetizers, and we loved them. The service was excellent; they truly care about their customers and made me feel like I was in Colombia. I was pleasantly surprised to see they offer Colombian beer—not just Club Colombia but also Águila and Poker. The prices were very reasonable, with generous portions and great quality. I hope this place continues to grow! ”

“ We had a delicious meal here! The mushroom chicken had been recommended so a few of us ordered it - it did not disappoint! Problem is it was too much food! Empanadas were good and kids liked them. Their homemade sauces are tasty to eat with them. Sweet corn cake with cheese was nummy! Definitely recommend as our waitress did!! Hubby had creole fish and said it was tasty. Plantains, cassava, and rice sides were all tasty! My parents had beans they liked. ”
“ I eat here regularly. I’ve tried many of their offerings and they have all been fantastic. The atmosphere is obviously very Latin, and some of the staff do not speak English well, so you may want to keep that in mind. I speak Spanish like Tarzan and I manage to do fine. The owners and staff are very friendly and provide outstanding service. The seating is very limited, so you may end up waiting for a table if you come during peak hours. ”
