It has a sign outside that offers the special of the day + 1 free soda. When you order the special, inside it tells you that the soda is not included in the special.
Either they honor the promotion of the poster or they remove it...suggestion

A super unpleasant experience. I felt robbed and scammed, the first time something like this has happened to me, be very careful when you go to this place, when paying ask for your invoice or payment receipt. These people add tips to you without you having given them, if you are confident and just pay and leave without paying attention to the details, then you will realize that they added tips that you never added. And they are incapable of giving you your money back, as if it is an obligation to pay tips just for picking up the food, because I didn't even eat there and they are so expensive that they tell you that maybe you placed it unconsciously. NOOOOOOO! Be very careful and attentive if you go to this Colombian place!

If you go trustingly and just pay and leave without paying attention to the details, you will later realize that they added tips that you never included. And they are incapable of giving you your money back, as if it is an obligation to pay tips just for picking up the food, because I didn't even eat there and they are so hard-nosed that they tell you that maybe you added it unconsciously. NOOOOOOO! Be very careful and on your guard if you ever go to this Colombian place!

07/03/2025 What you are saying seems very abusive on your part. Besides, the woman at the cashier said, your receipt is in the bag! Of course the one about the order, but not about the payment! And yes, they seem to me to be abusers and thieves. And I maintain my position, you cannot charge a mandatory tip for food either in the establishment or to take away, the tip has always been optional if the customer wants or is satisfied with the service. If I'm not happy, why should I tip them???? And the maximum of step! And the answer they gave me on the phone was that they probably realize I tipped them. I'm not crazy, gentlemen. What you are looking for is to pay your employees by stealing tips from customers! Little ethics! As long as I can I will not recommend them even to my enemy!

I ordered lengua salsa criolla, and the dish looked wonderful when it arrived—good portion size. However, when I started eating, I realized that most of the plate consisted of potatoes and a lot of vegetables. There were only two small pieces of lengua. The vegetables, being the same color as the meat, made it look like there was more, but in reality, it was just two small pieces. It was only accompanied by rice and a salad that consisted of just lettuce and two slices of tomato. We ordered a blackberry juice in water, and more than half of the glass was foam, the experience was bad in every way.
According to them, tips are mandatory at 18%. When we complained about the food, they didn’t offer any solution. And even though the service and the food were not good enough, the manager said that we still had to pay the tip.
There’s nothing worse than paying a lot for bad food.

The worst restaurant in Florida. Everything was bad. And tips are also mandatory after the service and food were bad.

I went for lunch with my wife and I asked for tray paisa, but the presentation is very unpleasant, the service was ok and the food overall was low quality.
I don't think I'll be back there.

I think they should pay a little more attention to the presentation of the dish and use better ingredients, and improve the service.
I asked for a toasted pork rind and they brought it medium. I asked the chef if they could cook it more and she took it in a basket with a napkin and brought it back with the same basket and the same napkin.
At least he should have returned it on a plate.
I don't think I'll come back.

Do not eat at this place flank steak (sobre barriga) the sauce is like a soup.. it is not good.
This place is like many Colombian restaurants too expensive, not good service & the place is supermarket, clothing store, etc.
Table and chairs are too close each other.
