"One of the best "bandeja tipica" one can find in Armenia!
The pork belly, chorizo, and the red beans were excellent. We also exchanged the ground beef for grilled pork.
We also order the baby beef, which was hearty tender and good flavor.
Definitely a place to enjoy local food and that I will go back."

"The food was ok, however, I think it is overpriced. The services was great. I would recommend to check out other places"
Vanessa Vargas
"We ate here because Salento was so hectic and finding parking was impossible. Glad we did! Everyone is very friendly and the food was nice home cooked fare. Our six year old really liked the grilled chicken. And if you sit at the window you get a lovely view of the valley."
