More than delicious, the customer service is so great ♥️

June 21, 2023

I went this weekend with a family relative and was surprised that the entrance this so-called restaurant is, is in a basement, so if you have a handicapped person you're going with or you are one, there is no way you're going to get in. The staircases also reek of urine. The restaurant is actually a bar, there are people who will be smoking and drinking, it's not a good place to go on a date or take the family to eat (in my case). I bought the bandera paisa (peasant's platter) and it cost $35 for a small portion of rice, beans, and salad. They were stingy with the tostones (a deep-fried plantain chip), they could've gave me two at least because the plate was expensive and I could've eaten at some other place and had leftovers as well. The chicharron (pork rind) was normal, I had better at other Colombian restaurants. The fried slice of beef and sweet plantains were good. The salad seemed stale and like it was done the day before. They overcharged for small juice drinks for 4 dollars each. The bad part was when I was eating some dude started blasting loud music and that was disrespectful because I wanted to enjoy my meal in peace and quiet. The bathrooms look like they're under construction and it was awkward to use them because of wood material and paint buckets left there. They don't take debit or credit card, everything is with cash. I was disappointed because I could've eaten way better at another place instead of being overcharged $35 dollars for a plate which wasn't worth that amount. My advice: Go somewhere else.

Don’t know what all the negative reviews are about. They served me some of the best soup I’ve ever had in my life. Truly delicious. The fried plantain was sweet and perfectly fried. I had a lovely exchange with the lady taking my order and my food was ready (to go) in about 15mins. I’ll be back!

Look at the pics below, they are $30 badeja paisa and $40 fried tilapia(no picture),and the staffs have disgusting attitude.if I visit any of my latino friend I would be treated x10,000 better. trust me.this place will make you repent that you spend your gas to drive to.you can thank me.

Exquisite soups, and typical Colombian seafood dishes. I have also tried the oxtail soup and it is delicious, they have different methods of payment and now luckily for many they are also on several food apps, I recommend viewing the menu through one of them and then just ordering via phone, I always do take out. Our home favorite is the cazuela de mariscos(seafood chowder) ...try it, it's even better than many I have tried when traveling to Colombia.

Delicious food. The pictures show Sancocho de Pescado and Cazuela de Mariscos. The chef/cook came over as well to talk to us and to make sure everything was good. Very nice guy! The atmosphere is different, but the food is so worth it. A hidden gem An exquisite flavor. In the photos: Fish Sancocho, and Seafood Casserole. Delicious. The cook came over to check that everything was okay. The atmosphere is different, it looks like a bar, but the food and the seasoning is what matters. Parking: Square

Visit this Colombian restaurant on January 7, 2023, I do not recommend it, in my opinion it does not taste anything like Colombian food, it is an insult to Colombian gastronomy, the only good thing is the little music, the rest is bad the taste If they want to keep that business they should change cooks aaah and carry cash because they dont receive cards.

I ate cazuela de mariscos and is one of the best Ive ever tried, the person who cooks made a great soup with delicious taste, full of sea food and Id eat it again! However, is a bit pricy and the restaurant seems dirty, looks more like a billiar place. I recommend some decorations and ilumination to make the place more comfortable for customers.

The food transported me to Colombia. The beef soup, the fried fish, everything is exquisite. The food is made by the owner, the seafood casuela is the star dish, the waitress was always with a smile, she was very pleasant and gave excellent service, I hope to return soon with my family and we all left very happy to enjoy such delicious food.

December 22, 2022

The price of a fried sea bass is $40, very expensive for a fish that is not fresh without seasoning and had nothing fried, a very poor quantity of salad for the price, I do not recommend this restaurant, the prices on this menu are too high for the quality of meal

In Colombia when the restaurant says Pacifico it is like a seal of rich flavor, so this restaurant is no exception, only that the flavor was transferred to Canada. You feel there like you are in a little piece of the peace. Very good attention.

Amazing Mexican and Colombian food !

December 22, 2021

In my opinion this restaurant does not deserve a single star, terrible service from both the cooks and the waitress, including the owner of the restaurant. I ordered a plate of roast pork and they brought me beef, which in fact I dont like beef. In addition, I asked the waitress if she could change the dish for pork and she told me that the cook said no because the beef dish had already come out. I asked to speak to the owner of the restaurant and he wasnt there. Thats not the only thing I asked for. two model beers and they never arrived, nor did they give us water, at the time of payment the waitress demanded the two beers that never arrived terrible everything in this place and the food was super expensive . I do not recommend it to anyone, this is my opinion of this place

December 22, 2019

About a month ago on a Sunday our family visited Toronto and we decided to stop at this place to eat Colombian food. . The music was great but the food was very disappointing and pricey. I ordered the catch of the day fried fish (pargo) $30.00 . To my disappointment it was not fresh at all. and tasted rubbery, it has been re-heated in the microwave. The patacones were also microwave. I love to eat green plantain/patacon and I know how it suppose to taste,. I asked the server/ owner to bring to our table a pitcher of water. He brough us warm water from the tab. When I got home I was very sick I will certailny never again will visit this establisment.

Terrible, disastrous, unpleasant service: according to them, I ordered their highly recommended mixed plate, but it took them forever to serve it, two; The supposed soup was unpleasant but the bad thing did not end there, the dish comes accompanied by flavorless rice, not very fresh salad, lemons that have been in the refrigerator for several days but above all a pork, which was the worst, WHEN I TRIED BREAKING IT was very, very hard. The bad thing about this is that I made the observation to the waitress who is the daughter of the owner and she got upset by THE observation, the story does not end there, when the owner realized this he began to insult me indirectly. They ended up overcharging me. Anyway, I really DO NOT RECOMMEND IT, IF YOU ENTER IT WILL BE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
