Had my first visit to Banditos Columbia yesterday afternoon and it will be the first of many. My husband, friend and I had wonderful Happy Hour drinks and delicious tacos at the bar. The staff were really friendly and efficient - big shout out to Kyle (even though he is a Tottenham fan) and to Egypt. Both of you were wonderful,?

We've been to Banditos many times in the past and it was our go-to for tacos. There was such an expansive menu that you never ran out of options! We went in on Monday and were shocked to discover a new menu that eliminated many of their staple tacos! The new list is maybe half of what it used to be and includes none of our favorites. I'm not sure who decided that eliminating so many tacos was a good idea, but we definitely won't be returning unless they expand their menu back to what it used to be.

The Banditos crew has brought their amazing food, atmosphere and service to Columbia and knocked it out of the park !! Food is awesome - can’t go wrong with the nachos and tacos. Drinks are delicious - great margaritas and giant draft beers. Servers are great. Love it here

This restaurant lacks proper management. I visited twice in one week and found the customer service below average. It seemed the staff didn't want to be there, evident from their early closing announcements. On Friday, they informed us at 11 pm that they'd be closing at 12, with the kitchen shutting down at 10, despite the usual closing time of 2 on weekends. When I went to watch the NCAA men’s basketball championship game, the bartender wasn't aware of it, and none of the TVs had it on. Even after turning it on, he hinted that they might close early. I requested the sound to be turned on, but another employee refused, stating it was only for big events, despite the game being a major one. Despite having the women's semi-finals on earlier, they were reluctant to accommodate the men's championship game. The rush to close led to turning away numerous customers during the game. As a former bartender, I understand the desire to go home, but it's essential to be aware of significant events and plan accordingly instead of rushing to close early.
