Restaurant Colombian restaurant

👍👍 I went for opening night which had an amazing band playing typical Colombian music. I ordered the grilled chicken which came with rice, tostones and a salad. The portion was more than enough to share. We also had the steak and breaded chicken. It was very tasty and authentic. It was very crowded but... People often mention restaurant, great, Colombian, time, service, experience,

    I went for opening night which had an amazing band playing typical Colombian music. I ordered the grilled chicken which came with rice, tostones and a salad. The portion was more than enough to share. We also had the steak and breaded chicken. It was very tasty and authentic. It was very crowded but we got our food in a timely fashion. The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable were the bathrooms. The women's and men's bathrooms are all together in a row. Other than that, we had a great time. I plan to come back and definitely recommend !

    My friends and I visited last night. We showed up at 4pm on a Sunday. This is a very lively venue. There are Huge TV Screens with sports, a pretty long bar, and lots of seating. During the warmer time, the sides of the building open up to offer sidewalk tables. The decorations are really cool. Even though it is a very loud restaurant, I was able to hear my friends. The acoustics are well-balanced. They had a gentleman singing to prerecorded music. He was really good. He wandered the floor and created a really good vibe. One of the owners was also tending to all the tables making sure everything was perfect. The service staff gets the highest marks for being attentive and fun. The food is very traditional Columbian with some Mexican and other items to round out the Latin cuisine. The food was very tasty. Next time I am going to be more daring and try more of the ethnic offerings. This is not a high-class restaurant with really high prices, instead, it is really friendly and affordable. We ate for about $35 each and there was plenty to eat. All in all, I hope this place does well. By 5.30 the place was packed with people from all over the place. We enjoyed ourselves and will visit again.

    My recent visit to La Choza Del Gordo left me thoroughly impressed! The food was an absolute delight, bursting with flavors that showcased their commitment to authenticity. The service was exceptional, with a friendly and attentive staff that truly made our dining experience memorable. The cozy atmosphere added to the overall charm of the restaurant, making it an inviting spot for a meal. Considering that La Choza Del Gordo is a relatively new establishment, I can't help but admire the dedication and investment put into it. It's inspiring to see such belief in the potential of the culinary scene in our country. I'm eagerly looking forward to witnessing their growth and success in the future. In light of my exceptional experience, it's difficult to fathom the numerous one-star reviews. I believe in honest and constructive feedback, and it's hard to believe that anyone could genuinely rate this place so low. Based on my visit, I wholeheartedly recommend La Choza Del Gordo to anyone seeking a fantastic dining experience. This restaurant represents the kind of positive growth and innovation that makes me proud to be a part of our community.

    A must go to restaurant!! The food and drinks were excellent and tasteful!! The atmosphere was interesting, intriguing, and pleasant. The waiters were sweet and courteous, and the manager Andres came and introduced himself. Overall, it's so great to have a decent place to come to eat and celebrate with friends, family, lover, or even by yourself so close to home. They will sure see me again!! 🤗

    From the moment we stepped into this Colombian gem, we were transported to a world of authentic flavors and warm hospitality. The ambiance is a delightful blend of comfort and culture, making us feel as if we were dining in the heart of Colombia itself. The star of our experience was undoubtedly our waiter, Juan Cardenas. His service was impeccable, his knowledge of the menu was extensive, and his warm demeanor added to the overall charm of our dining experience. Juan’s recommendations were spot on, guiding us through a culinary journey that left us craving for more. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Each dish was a testament to the rich and diverse Colombian cuisine. The flavors were authentic, the ingredients fresh, and the presentation was visually appealing. Every bite was a delicious adventure, making us appreciate the culinary artistry that went into creating these dishes. This restaurant has quickly become our family’s go-to spot for Colombian cuisine. The combination of delicious food, great ambiance, and exceptional service makes it a place we look forward to visiting again and again. If you’re looking for an authentic Colombian dining experience, look no further. This restaurant is a must-visit!
