Palo Quemao

My friend was visiting from NC and asked me a good place to visit. I mentioned this place right away because it was on my list of places to visit.We sat outside and Aurora was our server. Everything looks and smells great. If you have passed by there, you will know. We ordered a picada personal and a few Aguilas. I will be back again for sure. Great food and service.

I have always wondered about Palo Quemao and finally tried it a couple of months ago. I had a friend visiting and he loves Colombian food. We got there and luckily we were able to get a table for 3. Bigger parties were waiting outside for tables so we were really lucky! To start I ordered a Lulo juice, I fell in love with this fruit when I visited Colombia and I was so happy they had it on the menu! My boyfriend and friend both got some Colombian soda, Postobon and they liked it. To start we shared some Arepas con Queso, good but way too greasy, Tequeños, which were delicious, and Cheese Empanadas which were big, yummy, and greasy too. We also got the Bandeja Paisa which was huge! Perfect for 2-3 people and I got a side of the rice and beans because I couldn't get over how good they were! The place is cute and clean and the server was welcoming.

This place has amazing food and staff. The food was very tasty and had so much flavor. If you're ever in Miami and want some great Colombian food at very good prices this is the place to go to.

Brought an out of town friend here! We really enjoyed our meal here - service was super friendly, and the food was exactly what we were looking for. Weather was good, so we sat at one of the many tables outside. We got three things - the Ajiaca Santafereno (chicken soup), empanadas, and the Bandeja Paisa to try a bunch of different proteins. We found this place because I searched "soup" near "my current location." We were not disappointed by the Ajiaca Santafereno It was hearty, flavorful, and exactly what I wanted. We liked the crispness of the empanadas. As two Asian Americans, both of us were big fans of the pork belly and liked how the rice is a little different from Chinese / Vietnamese rice. Wasn't obsessed with the steak in this order, but we liked everything else in the Bandeja Paisa. Will be returning with my husband! This is a great spot for something that feels a little more homey, but elevated.

Palo Quemao is so good! I'm stuckkkk on their Sancocho De Res (beef soup) & Bandeja Paisa dishes. But I'm almost sure everything is good because as many times as I've had it, they have NEVER missed. Just fresh and good and juicy + great portions! The restaurant is clean and the service is amazing, the waiters are so attentive.

Loved this place! Didn't plan on eating here and stumbled upon it on maps. Exceeded my expectations for sure! The tequeños were AMAZING! Perfectly crisp on the outside and melted on the inside just like they should be (not all places make them well lol) . we got the parilla for 4 which was HUGEEE couldn't even finish it . The server was very attentive with us.

No matter the time of day, this place is packed! Cute little spot on the 1st floor of the City 24 residentialBuilding, they have a nice outdoor dinning area & always play fun/cheerful latin music. Definitely gets you in a good mood! I've gone on weekends after the gym for a quick bite, after work with friends and ordered take out. I do find it a little over priced for basic latin food, but i guess it makes up for ambiance & portion size. My favorites are the soups & the empanadas, i've had friends rave about the bandeja paisa, i agree that it's delicious but the portion seems to feed 3! The staff is friendly, and orders typically come out quickly.

Friendly service, good Colombian soul food!Not pictured but worthy of a mention was the Lulo green juice, which was delicious and a must try!Metered street parking is generally available.

Food was delicious and a great portion sizes. Additionally, service was quick and server was attentive! I forgot to take more pictures but we ordered the tequenos, picada personal (contains Steak, Blood Colombian sausage, chicken, pork belly, Colombian sausage, French fries & corn cake), and salad. Since we had so much meat, we decided to order a side salad. When the salad arrived, I was expecting more leafy greens but it was mostly tomato with some avocado. The menu didn't include a picture so I didn't know what to expect, but the salad was good. We wanted to be seated outside to enjoy the nice Miami weather but it is located alongside a busy road and there were several times where we had to pause the conversation because ambulances / firetrucks / police cars were blaring (no fault to the restaurant but something to keep when eating here). I will definitely be back here!

Colombian food! Food was great- The drink of a pitcher with 2 beers with a Colombiana was exactly what we needed. Difficult to fine parking. They have outside seating but during the Miami summers it might be too hot. They kept going in out so it was difficult for the AC to cool off the restaurant.
