Fonda Dulce Jesus Mio

As a Colombian any time a new restaurant opens we have to go and support! We were not disappointed at all with any part of our experience! First the atmosphere is your traditional Colombian village! Perfectly decorated to the smallest detail and the servers were dressed in our traditional dresses. Always smiling and with recommendations. The food was definitely just like at home, we had to try the traditional Maracuya margarita which were delicious. For food we got morcilla which is a blood sausage very common. And of course the must have bandeja paisa. They say they turn the place into a dancing club Friday and Saturday nights so I can't wait To try it out! 10/10

First time getting to try this fonda that I hear all the rave about from other fellow Colombians! Came in for dinner on Sunday night. I was honestly surprised with how spacious this place is! I've heard of the original location in Medellin, but have yet had the privilege to go. I love the decor; the typical Colombian style brick roofs with balconies, the wood tables/chairs, and let's not forget the church with El Niño Jesus to top it off. I love seeing the employees in the traditional wear, which adds more of our culture to the place. Now for the food, I ordered chicaharones (fried pork belly) with an arepa for an appetizer; what looked like a small portion was actually great to share with another person. The chicharones were cut nicely, fried to a nice texture, and I enjoyed the sticks to help pick at the pieces. For my entree, I had the bistec encebollado, which was a huge plate.. I actually took half of it to go! The steak was cooked deliciously, it was freshly cooked and soft when I cut into it. The plate came with a side of rice, yuca fries, and Colombian style cole claw. I paired my lovely yuca fries with a combination of sauces they provide you; a typical Colombian spicy sauce (think of like a pico de gallo), chimichurri, salsa rosada (like mayoketchup), and a white garlic sauce (to die for). I paired everything with a Jugo de maracuya, I chose to mix it with water since I can't have milk (but always do milk if you're tolerant you won't be disappointed). Overall, our server was very kind. I would say service takes a bit, but your food comes out fresh! I love the guascas, vallenatos, and modern Latin music that they play. Also, I was so amazed at how the lights start blinking and changing when they're singing happy birthday, definitely a fun touch. Can't wait to come back, for when the place turns into a club at night, I can only imagine how fun it might be!

Came here on a Saturday night for a friends birthday and had a blast! The inside is like a piece of Medellin with the decorations, and the DJ was great. He played a lot of traditional Colombian music but had a good variety of other music as well. They had tons of balloons for the crowd and cool lighting effects, it was really high energy and lots of fun. Service was attentive throughout the night as well too. Only issue was they didn't have the right number of chairs for our reservation and completely forgot the birthday decorations that were discussed prior but they solved the problem on the spot.

great ambience, good music food is good , Waiter very helpful and dress nicenonprofits and legal clinics

I had visited this restaurant/club for the first time previously for the Copa America final between Colombia and Argentina. I thought the high prices were because it was a special event. On my next visit, I realized this was not the case. Though the food was good, the ambience was great, the service was mediocre. And, the restaurant added an automatic 20% tip. My bill for $80 for two people, no alcohol, was shocking.

Are you ready to get transported to Medellin? This is what this place feels like. Side note: I went on a Saturday afternoon, not for the night ambiance or show experience. The hostess and waitress were attentive and friendly. I was seated immediately. The place is huge and can accommodate a lot of people. The food was delicious and fresh. The food had cutest presentation and restaurant decor was authentic to its culture. I will definitely go back.

Buen ambiente al estilo Colombiano y sobretodo cerca de todas las demás áreas como Davenport y Orlando

Service provides without knowledge, requests a glass of tap water not allowed to have, mentioned you may acquire poisoning from water and confused with food, wonder what kind of water they used to prepare food , drinks ice machine source of water?ask for lemonade drink they prepare with wich water, Food bandeja paisa was cold missing chorizo, avocado, beans was cold too.and sancocho meat outside the plate, Rice cold missing flavor taste weak and they charge service charge for 2 people without telling you," Trick." If you dont check your bill, be adding a gratuity paying double tip. The tables are too crowded.

My steak was tender. Well done the service was good enjoyed the music baked potato and beans were delicious

Nunca he visitado un lugar tan disagradable como este. 1. El bartender no tiene ni idea de como preparar las margaritas. Y aparte no tienen mezcal.2. Ni te sientes en la barra cerca del bano porque el olor es lo mas desagradable.3. El peor customer services y decoration. Tremendo cuchitil. No entiendo como quieren ganarse una propina.4. Y ni hablar del DJ de los sabados. Conosco todas las fondas Colombianas de Miami y esta es la peor. Les recomiendo Sanponcho.​​
