Great Hole in the Wall, Authentic Dishes, Great Value

by jlointc

I grew up on Colombian food and I live in Portland, Oregon and this place really brought me back home. This famliy has been operating here for 25 years and the food tells the story. The ambience/building doesn't represent the food. A meal that left me & my girlfriend stuffed costed only $18.00. The dining room gets packed quickly as there are only about a dozen tables. Try: Oxtail Soup, Arepas.

• Pros: Value, Taste, Location (3 blocks from 24th Mission Station)
• Cons: Ambience, Obviously Older Building

What a find!

We've walked by many times (it is not an eye catcher) but tonight we stopped in. The food was fantastic! Everything we had was great. It's a low key, nice, family owned restaurant. I loved this place and will definately go back.

Fill up!

This is a great neighorhood spot when you want your fix of south american food. The pork papusa's are great as are the plantains and beans with cream. Cheap, cheap, cheap the have a 2 papusa min. Depending on your hunger, you will most likely be taking that 2nd papusa home. Great food, slow service but I think it was due to the group of 10 taking up most of the place. Highly recommend a papusa (or 2) for a late lunch or early dinner!

• Pros: papusas, convenience
