Una verdadera joya colombiana en Qc.

We viisted this place on a Sunday afternoon. This was our first time trying Colombian food. We ordered the vegetarian arepa & the picada colombiana-with chicken instead of beef. The place is pretty small & fills up very quickly. We arrived luckily when tables were still available but they got filled & there were 3 families waiting by the time we finished eating. They have two menus, in Spanish & in French. The food is quite healthy & filling I would say. The staff are really friendly, checking with us multiple times if we are enjoying our food. The green sauce was amazingly fresh. The red sauce was quite spicy for our taste. The mango juice was okay.
The only problem was the very loud music in the kitchen & the heat inside the restaurant for me.
I enjoyed trying something new.

Tout était délicieux & authentique! Empanadas, jus tropicaux, sauces, patacones, arepas.

Seul petit commentaire: la terrasse aurait besoin d'un peu d'amour pour être plus accueillante.
