Great food and our server Katty was awesome! Friendly, always smiling, advised excellent food choices for us, and left feeling like we made a new friend. We were also impressed how many other people she was helping and treated them awesome, the same as us. My wife and I shared a shrimp cocktail, mega burger, and bandeja paisa. Everything was prepared just right and sooooo good! Definitely will return, and hope to see Katty!

Today we had our first experience at Bandeja Paisa and left more than satisfied. I came to have lunch with my wife and daughter, and from the moment we arrived, the service was warm and welcoming.
We want to give a special shoutout to our server, María José, who provided outstanding service—very attentive, friendly, and truly made our experience even more enjoyable.
The food was excellent: generous portions, authentic flavors, and everything was perfectly prepared. You can really tell there’s quality and care in every dish. The atmosphere is comfortable and family-friendly, perfect for a relaxed meal.
We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Colombian food and top-notch service!

If ever there was a place where flavor and hospitality joined forces to conquer the galaxy, Bandeja Paisa Restaurant would be that culinary rebel base!
From the moment you walk in, the cheerful Colombian décor sets the tone — colorful murals, witty ceiling quotes (“Si lo puedes soñar, lo puedes hacer”), and good vibes that would make even a grumpy Sith crack a smile.
🪄 The Service:
Out of this world! The staff moved faster than a hyperdrive upgrade and smiled brighter than twin suns. Every guest was treated like family — or at least a well-fed Jedi.
🍽️ The Food:
Each dish looked like it was plated for the Galactic Senate! The Paisa Burger con Chicharrón was an absolute masterpiece — a towering burger with layers of ham, bacon, and cheese, crowned with crispy chicharrón and a sausage spear worthy of a lightsaber duel. Served with fries, guacamole, and enough flavor to make the Force tremble.
The rice dish (loaded with chorizo, chicken, veggies, and topped with avocado and sweet plantains) was a tropical explosion of color and taste — pure edible art!
💡 Bonus Points:
Menus are displayed on sleek tablets, with bilingual descriptions (Spanish & English) — super helpful for off-world travelers still learning the local dialects.
🌟 Final Verdict:
Strong with the flavor, this place is. A hidden gem in the Miami system that turns hunger into harmony. Five shining stars across the galaxy for food, service, and pure heart.
Definitely saving this one in my favorites. 🌠

This is one of the best Colombian restaurants I’ve been to in Miami! Their beef empanadas are incredible; packed with flavorful meat and not filled with fillers like you often find elsewhere. We also had the morcilla and the churrasco, and … More

This is a must, every time I'm in Miami. I ordered a Bandeja Paisa to-go. Katty was AMAZING! While I waited, she gave me a chicken soup and brought me some water, DELICIOUS! She also gave me a water for the road, so kind. When I got back to the hotel room, OMG!! For short, it was packaged so well. The food taste PHENOMENAL! And I went on a Monday, where I got all this for $15. They also do this on Thursdays as well. I will definitely be back, probably tonight, and recommend anyone in the area to try & see Katty!
