Thanks to a lively atmosphere and word-of-mouth recommendation, this authentic Colombian steakhouse is a neighborhood favorite. The bulk of the menu is meat, including beefy choices such as NY strip, ribeye and skirt steak. "People like this because they find a different flavor, different foods, different ambiance," says owner Jorge Suarez. "When they get inside they feel like they're in another country." In March 2007, the restaurant moved a few doors down to a bigger space and added a liquor license; try a mojito or a glass of sangria.
