6. Caribbean Wings

As you´ve spent some time in Colombia, you´ll come to realise not all restaurants are alike. With a place as cheap as Caribbean Wings, I should´ve known what I was signing up for. The wings are actually tiny, yet it is marketed as a proper meal because of the huuuuge potatoes. The main advantage of this place though, is the fact that for once you don´t need to ask for sauces, which make both the wings as the potatoes pretty decent.

Iâm not really a vegetarian so my friendo had to talk me into going to the restaurant. But the flavours and creativity the restaurant present really makes you forget your craving for meat or fish. A really pleasant surprise for me! The service was also friendly and attentive. I really recommend trying this place!!

Lamart does amazing seafood always packed full of yummy flavour and beautifully presented. The thai curry is incredible and most recently we had a really delicious fresh corvina fish and cayeye. Definitely recommend for a romantic lunch or dinner - it is especially nice at night when the street is all lit up!

Nice enough place .. super busy which is always a good sign.. food was nice .. but so special that I would return for round 2. Peeking into the kitchen - the cooks seemed to be working with care + precision which is nice to see from ones table .. but the food was really rather simple ... in a high end way.Thanks a lot for your visit. We hope see you again at the 2nd round! :)Best Regards,Sebastian

We chose to eat here based on another recommendation from a friend. The food was good, service was fast, and the atmosphere was nice. The only downfall for us, is we went during "dry law" here in Colombia, due to elections, and could not try any cocktails. Maybe next time! :)
