Reviewed By Nic-2501 - Reading, United Kingdom
After exploring their huge shopping mall we decided to stop here to eat and it was well worth it. Myself and my partner went for a savoury one each, one Mexican style and one with chicken broccoli and cheese. They were INCREDIBLE and just what I hoped they'd be. Would definitely recommend as it's so tasty, there's loads of different options to suit all and it's not too expensive either. Also try the 'French hot chocolate ' YUM

The nice thing about the Rionegro area is that there are a number of reasonably-priced, excellent steakhouses. Mundo's, in the vereda of Llanogrande, is certainly one of them. My wife and I shared dinner with a number of friends at Mundo's last night, and we were blown away by the quality and value of our meal. The restaurant is a sprawling ranch-style building that is perfect for any type of dining occasion. Whether it is a romantic dinner for two, or a family dinner, the restaurant is perfect. Mundo's is situated just off Llanogrande Road, and just 10 minutes away from either JMC international airport or Rionegro city. Our servers were warm, genuine and attentive.
Our meals took a little longer than expected, but were, without a doubt, worth the wait. My 400 gram Brangus New York Steak was done to perfection. It was accompanied by garlic-flavored potato puree and half of a tomato filled with chimichurri dressing. Charcoal flavor permeated throughout my steak, and with the exception of a dash of salt, no additional flavoring was necessary. My steak was tender as butter. I was overwhelmed by the size of the steak, so I took my time savoring each bite. Long after everyone was finished, I was still eating. Excluding drinks, the price for my dinner was 36,900 pesos (about $11.00 US). I also sampled a barbecued pork rib. The rib was tender and tasty, and I intend to order this dish on my next visit to Mundo's.
Our evening at Mundo's was pleasant and the two hours passed quickly. The best surprise of the evening was our bill. Our feast which included appetizers, entrees, drinks and a dessert for 6 adults and 1 child plus tip came to a mere 367,000 pesos ($110.00 US). From now on, Mundo's is on our list of regulars. Without any Reservations, I highly recommend this fine restaurant.

Quant location nestled between a couple of businesses. However, the food is phenomenal!!! Deliciously crafted local dishes at reasonable prices when taking into account the dollar conversion. Beautifully decorated restaurant transports you to a typical village atmosphere.

It doesn't get more authentic than this. This is the real paisa food and great prices. Another restaurant Queareparaenamorarte has the same food for 3 times the price. Their menu of the day is 10,000 COP and comes with fresh juice, soup, rice or potatoes or fries, selection of meat - pork or beef, large salad, half a fried plantain and a large bowl of soup. This is almost too much food to eat for one person. Local beers are 2500 and they take Visa and MasterCard. They have 2 locations - one near Don Diego and one on Las Palmas near KM25.

Great pizza in Guatape with a really tasty crust. My 6 year old is a picky eater and had no problems with this pizza. At only $8000 pesos for a small cheese pizza its a great value.

I've visited Billar loads of times and there's always something going on. Go for a beer, a meal or to play billiards. It even serves decent coffee! This bar needs little excuse to have a party - especially if there's a football game to watch on their giant TV. The staff are lovely. Do go along if you're in La Ceja, you can't miss Billar - its right in the main square (El Parque) which is particularly beautiful when the Christmas lights are on.

Reviewed By Spiii-Rose - Province of Cuenca, Spain
Traveling through the beautiful countryside outside Medellin, we happened upon this lovely spot just in time for a wonderful sunset, some cheese and wine. We were very well attended by the master chesemaker who spent 10 years traveling around Europe and US learning the trade of artisan cheesemaking. She has associated in a community of 30 families to make high quality cheeses.
We ordered a plate of various cheeses and a bottle of wine. We were then surpised with a complimentary desert-- delicious sweets and cheese of their making.
If you go to their page (http://lacteosbuenavista.com), they have several locations in the Medellin area.

I do like traditional local food, but I do not like it every day. This restaurant offers fresh green things, delicious sauces, modern food treatments and most of all, very good and creative cooks. It is a real 'find' in a very traditional and wonderful pueblo. I often drive the 15 miles required to at there.
