Friendly and welcoming staff who helped guide me through my first time trying Colombian food! Delicious and locally owned, no complaints!

Terry Miles

Food was amazing. I had the Beef Liver and it was cooked to perfection, which is hard to find. The one person working here did everything and it was worth the stop. Highly suggest!!

Saul Caliber

Stopped in on a whim, always drive by here, all I can say is for a one man show this truly amazed me , food, service excellent.... Definitely worth the stop

Anthony Stevens

Totally and completely surprised. Wonderful place. Almost looks abandoned from the outside to tell the truth. Don't let the appearance fool you. It's worth going!

Tami Wilcox

The food here is amazing. It is authentic and delicious. The restaurant is vibrantly decorated, and I enjoyed the atmosphere. I would recommend. You need to plan time and be patient, though, the chef is also the waiter. He is genuine and kind. Ames and Gilbert should support this gem.

I loved the food. It was so nice to find a Colombian restaurant in town. My server was very polite. However the high chairs that they had there for babies (only one) was not safe. My baby kept on sliding out of it. I would love to come back and bring my relatives when they visit and show them this restaurant but I would only come back once they have better high chairs and get more than one high chair as it was almost impossible to eat this way. I would really like to come back ❤️

I parked my friend's car in their parking lot when I got a flat tire. Went back the next morning and it was gone. They had it towed!!! $364.00 for me to get it back...thanks for absolutely nothing

Closed, the site is not taken care of, they do not answer calls.

I normally eat Applebee's when on the road for work as I enjoy not thinking but they had been closed which allowed me the opportunity to find this hidden gem. I left the option up to the chef whom brought me a traditional pork over beans and rice with some sweetness from the plantains. On top of all this I had a very fun time chatting with some regulars over my meal.

Service was amazing, the gentleman that served us was extremely nice. The meal itself was excellent everything was fresh and very flavorful. I will most certainly be back when I drive through Ames it was worth the detour!
