The food was amazing! Definitely we'll be back. The ribs were amazing and the service was excellent, we didn't have a booking but the guy was really friendly and didn't refuse to let us seat in the shared space outside. Make sure to book in advance.

Great, friendly service. Food is as advertised, big hunks of meat BBQed to perfection with some simple sides to back things up. Recommend for sure.

Delicious steak
Let down by staff talking when they needed to be clearing tables
Uncomfortable cheap chairs no seat backs to relax on
Expect to wait a long time when busy

I ordered and was waiting for 30 min. Then I asked how long should I wait more and the answer was brilliant - havent started cooking yet, wait for more 30 min. Thanks no! My friends have already finished their meals (taken from other places). Thanks for a nice waiting!

Excellent atmosphere. I was expecting a really hot restaurant but its well ventilated. Staff were fantastic. Extremely friendly and checked on us several times during the meal to see that everything was good and if we wanted anything else.
300gram Punta de Anca (bottom round cut steak) was $31 and the 300gram El Humero Pork was $32. The Sangria's were $11 each. Meals were very filling and came with salad, choice of side and choice of sauce. Would go back for dinner next week, will be taking friends and family there for sure.

I was taken here by a native Columbian as they said it's the only place they had found in Auckland with authentic tasting Columbian food. Really enjoyed the meal. Little tough as a vegetarian finding much variety as only one vegetarian dish plus many vegetarian sides. Helpful friendly staff. Relaxed/casual eating spot.

The service here was excellent. As for the food. If you're specialising in cooking meat, I would have expected that part to be pretty much perfect.
The pork chops were dry and the tomahawk steak was over cooked.
Paid $32 for chops I'd buy at a great Butcher for $10 and I'd do a better job cooking them at home WITHOUT marinating them for 12 hours.
8 of us for lunch, 5 different mains and every one was dry.

Ambiance was nice, as was the customer service, just a little on the busy side so we had to wait a while for the food to come out. The meat wasn't cooked to perfection in my opinion as one would expect from a steakhouse, however the flavour was good and I would certainly return.

Authentic Colombian Bbq place with a good ambience and great side dishes to go with the juicy bbq meat.

Somewhere between a four and five star experience. The ambience of the venue is gorgeous, in an alleyway with nightlights really works in its favour, however it does sacrifice on space in the main section. If you get seated in the outside space, you'll likely just have a five star experience. Food here can be to die for, some of the best Colombian meat dishes I can get in New Zealand, with the sauces and Yucca fries. People I bring here always tend to enjoy. Will keep coming back.

A good place nice steak dinner, and columbian dishes. The steaks are cooked on a charcoal fire in front of you. Perfect quantity and aptly priced.

Great - one of the best steak restaurants on the shore. Good fast service. No booking required - just walk in and your meal is on the table within 10 or so many minutes. And that’s on a very busy Friday night!

These smoky flavours and quality ingredients make this your definitive choice when looking for good old fashion steak and chops.the energy here is positive and the food is exactly what you expect. It's busy.so walk in early.fair priced for the portions.

Wow this food was so delicious. Had the ribs and chicken. A bit on the expensive side, but so worth it. Cozy venue and was packed on a Tuesday night.
