Got there 4 or 5 hours before they closed, and without a reservation they wouldn't serve us food or let us see their food menu for future reference. As a stupido gr!ng0 I would not have known better but I came with my colombian lady looking for colombian food. Then we saw 3 or 4 families / larger groups come and sit down and order food right in front of us. And we asked about making a reservation and when their kitchen closed and they just said no, from more than 1 employee. So after we finished some poorly made drinks ?‍♂️ we went down the street to savor colombian steak house and were satisfied and got out real colombian food fill. Sorry la gozadera! Good luck as a bar, maybe the restaurant aspect isn't for you and should be redacted.

Good place for sharing a beer and hear a very good music, love it !!

Great service and great food and drinks =) will definitely return ...

I've been there 3 times late at night and there is a great environment and good DJ music and excellent service, however last Saturday my Colombian friend told me to go there for dinner but the food wasn't as good as expected, flavorless and sort o dry, not the good Colombian taste we went there for.

El lugar estaba sucio, no tiene un ambiente Colombiano , fui en horario familiar y los videos de las pantallas no eran aptos para niños, la comida no estaba rica

Very disappointing when you spend $60 on a meal and cannot get any utensils what do they expect us to eat with we're not cavemen or more importantly no sauces with the meal. Very dry to eat. Ordered for delivery very fast delivery but it was through uber so that's the only reason why I'm giving it 2 stars. Very disappointing.

Worst food ever, I’m Venezuelan and my husband’s family is Colombian and OH MY GOD… Worst Latin restaurant we have ever been. Let me tell you, the arepas are the frozen kind from the grocery store, disgusting. We ordered the sweet plantains with cheese for our 2 year old daughter who loves them, she tried one tiny pice and never looked at them again, they were BAD! Really bad and the frozen kind as well. The parrilla mixta for 2 it’s more like for 1 person with a super tiny piece of steak (really thin and sadly, the only good thing about the parrilla) the chorizo, chicken and pork didn’t taste great at all. The “natural” juices were pretty bad, I can’t even describe their flavor. Poor service, the waitress was on a rush the whole time because they had a party going on and needed our table for other people, even though we made a reservation at 6:00 pm and when we show up they said we didn’t have a reservation. 18% of tip was included and is pricey for the portions and frozen/ not fresh food you get. Do not recommend this place for food, they seriously need to work a lot on their cooking, otherwise they should operate as a club or a bar for people just to go drink, maybe have some finger foods and dance.
