Stopped in solo while on a work trip and had an awesome experience at Aguardiente Colombian Steak House. I ordered the Bandeja Paisa and it was excellent — especially the rice, which was cooked perfectly. The restaurant is clean, peaceful, and warmly lit, with a cozy setting and soothing, appropriate music that really fits the atmosphere. Big shoutout to my server Michelle — she did a fabulous job and truly made me feel like family. I’ll definitely be back again soon!
This restaurant is awesome. We were served by Luisa and she was great, attentive, friendly and on point. The food was really good and tasty, the entraña was cooked perfectly. The restaurant was very nice and clean and has a great menu. I highly recommend this place.
We came in as a family and left raving about everything—from the hot, crispy mini empanaditas to the generous, home-style entrées. The bistec a caballo was absolutely delicious, with the steak cooked perfectly and topped with eggs and flavorful hogao. The bandeja paisa (with that epic chicharrón!) was a showstopper. Beans, yuca sticks, rice—every side tasted fresh. Service was warm, fast, and genuinely friendly, and portions are big enough to share. Clean space, great prices, and true comfort food vibes.
Display was completely unbelievable. As soon as you enter, you can see the cool environment. The restaurant is clean and spotless. Also vary spacious, comfortable tables. The food is absolutely delicious. And my server, Johan was top-notch. 200% recommended.
Karen!! Sweet kindness and treatment. Ask for Karen! Beautiful smile. Kind heart. Thanks. To all staff. Our first visit. Definitely not our last. Had four appetizers, cocktails, and entree. Comfort food. Y después música Colombiana en vivo. Por favor!!! Great bar tenders and cocktails. Honestly loved this place. Ok. It’s loud with all the birthdays, but that’s part of the vibe. Chill, sexy.
Very beautiful and welcoming environment. We sat outside for dinner and it was very peaceful! Food was very good! Larger portioned! Loved the staff and music was pleasant! Service was quick and efficient. Food was wonderful and the drinks were great! Environment is clean and well presented:) 10/10 will be back again!
This restaurant is a must! You will not be disappointed. We didn’t have a reservation but they sat us right away. Our waiter, Jhon, was very charming and delightful. He explained the dinner and drink menus to us We ordered the empanada appetizers and salchipapas, they came out very quickly. They were delicious. The food we ordered was delicious, so flavorful and the portions were enormous. The drinks were also some of the best we’ve ever ordered. The passion fruit margarita was 10/10!! Will definitely return when we’re come back in town.
One of our uber drivers recommended Aguardiente, and we’re glad he did! Aguardiente was yummy! First time trying Colombian food, and it’s definitely not the last. We tried the chicken empanda, combo platter with skirt steak and chicharonnes, and arroz con pollo. Everything was delicious. More than the food, the service was phenomenal. Laura made sure to explain to us what we were getting with our meals and frequently checked in on us. Highly recommend this place, especially if you’re just visiting Orlando!
