★★★★★ 5.0 It’s Katya Babyy · Jun 2025

Will definitely be returning.. I usually just buy empanadas and pastries for breakfast here .. but I came for dinner last night and split this huge bandeja paisa and I lychee mojito with my sister and we left sooo full 😩 The lychee mojito didn’t taste much like lychee but it was still good it gave me a buzz 😅 The food was delicious and came out fast. The Avacado salad was fresh The waitress was super sweet .. 10/10

★★★★☆ 4.0 Ryan Eakin · Jun 2022

The food and service was amazing but the to-go bread from the bakery was a bit stale. Maybe we dined on a day that wasn’t a main baking day but you could taste the bread being at least 3 days old. The rest of the menu is delicious however! And the people are very nice.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jan Siolkowski · Oct 2025

I came here with my wife the other day. She got the mousse, I got the cheesecake, and we both got drinks, all was very tasty. The server was very friendly and attentive. We'd love to come back and try the breakfast and dinner menus in the future.

Avoid ordering delivery. First of all, the food doesn't arrive in good condition. It's better to eat at the restaurant. Nothing I ordered was good; it tasted bad and was kind of disgusting.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 True Traveler · Feb 2024

Feb 2024, the place was empty, service was good, small coffee 10 once, food has changed, Colombian breakfast has rice, scramble eggs and a single piece of pork and french fries and a cheese arepa, not what I expected for $15.00. Beware, this is the only place in New York State that charges you for milk on your coffee and they automatically add 18% tip, and the highest suggested tip is 25%. Incredible. Sorry but I would not recommend this place.
