Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our valued customers have to say about their dining experience.
"love this no-frill restaurant (7412 Bergenline Avenue)... usually have the Churrasquito mid-rare and it comes out 99.999% mouthwatering... any of the Sancochos or Sopas are really good... the service is well managed and on point - no complains even when busy... travel half hour just eat there even though there are multiple other restaurants closer to me... if you're in the area and hungry for Colombian food, it's worth the stop... street parking is mostly usually available..."
