“I had an outstanding experience thanks to Manuel! From the moment we were seated, he made us feel truly welcomed. His attention to detail, warm personality, and deep knowledge of the menu made our visit exceptional. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, offered thoughtful recommendations, and checked in at the perfect times without ever being intrusive.

Our food arrived promptly, everything was exactly as ordered, and Manuel’s professionalism and genuine kindness made the entire meal even more enjoyable. It’s rare to find a server who combines efficiency, friendliness, and expertise so effortlessly.

Manuel is a true asset to the restaurant, and we will absolutely be returning because of the wonderful service he provided!”

“I randomly picked Fonda Sabaneta what a place to try. I did not realize how good and authentic this places is.. there was a line trying to get in, but I got there early and I was able to get a table. A hidden gem and Sofia very helpful in assisting me with popular dishes. I can’t wait to try more! I did not like the extra credit card charges a homeless charge plus a service charge then a tip!! What turned out as an inexpensive meal became costly adventure. Would rate it higher if it was more reasonable $$”

“My husband and I had a wonderful first visit to this restaurant! Food was excellent, and our server Yosbely was attentive and provided great service. Excited to come back in the future!”

“I love it here! When I entered I felt so nostalgic. When you sit they greet you with a caldo so delicious. And the food just got better and better. Highly recommend! Good authentic Colombian food. Andres was great!”

“It's really recommended. The food is great. The chicharrones are very rich, not like in other places. The tostones were very good and the paisa tray was spectacular, one of the best I've ever eaten. Excellent service in general, all very professional. The service was fast and they give you a broth at the entrance of the reception, I liked that. The drinks were one and the other free and they also gave us a drink as a gift. Wonderful place!”

“This is about the third time i’ve come because honestly the food is amazing. The first time I went there was a young man that served us and it was amazing. But after that the service just gets worse. Today I went and I only asked for a small container to put the sauce I like in. I’ve received the container before no issues or at least a box to put the food in with the container. The server today told me She would bring me small sauces but I only asked her to take the one that was on the table I didn’t believe there to be a problem with that but she brought me a sauce which surprised me and I was like ok. When I look at the check she charged me for the sauce when I originally just wanted the container. I asked her about it and she acted oblivious like if I never asked her that. Honestly if I go again i’ll ask for another server. I understand she was busy because I am a server as well but there is no need to not have transparency when you don’t know who you’re serving. I was going to leave a $40 extra tip for the holidays, but I didn’t leave anything extra. She was ignorant when we got there and the sauce ending just but the top on the lid. Hopefully I get the young man again. I honestly don’t understand what was the problem with me getting a container for a sauce I was consuming. Horrible service.
Really hope this is rectified.”

“This restaurant is small and the food is good. Personally I don't like the places with recorded music. I really enjoyed the detail of a cup of soup as a presentation.”
