Editorial Review

Catchy Latin music mingles with the sound of families and couples conversing in Spanish and English at this cozy Colombian restaurant, decorated with painted murals and soccer team posters. The kitchen proudly recommends the trout stuffed with sole, baby shrimp and mushrooms; sancocho stew of beef, green plantain, cassava, potato and carrot; and bandeja paisa, a traditional Colombian dish starring grilled beef, beans, tomatoes, avocado, sausage, plantain and bacon—served on rice and topped with a fried egg. Sangria, beer and an international wine list provide solace for drinkers. On weekends, guitarist and singer Pacho Cardona provides live entertainment. Mains $4–$20.
