“ Best COLOMBIAN BUNUELOS and Pandebonos (better than in home country). This is our regular spot for bunuelos. However, coffee is not great, we bring our own :) ”
“ Food is good. But the women there were yelling across the floor from each other in conversation. Kind annoying when you're trying to enjoy an expensive lunch and relax. Food is good though. ”
“ Muy rico!!! Just visited for the first time and loved it. Had the Papa Rellena (..deep fried potato that has meat inside) and also had the Calentado con perico (scrambled eggs that has diced tomatoes and onions mixed in with a side of traditional Colombian beans and rice). The service was nice as well. Definitely will be back. ”
“ Traditional Homestyle Colombian food just like my grandmother used to make. Very great atmosphere and fast food. ”
“ To date. Still the best panaderia around. I have yet to find another place which makes pandebonos and bunuelos as good as back in Colombia. Dona Beatriz and Lauri have superb customer service. ”
