white people seriously need to learn how to detect geography through the flags hung in this restaurant, and signs all around indicating it's a Colombian restaurant, NOT Mexican!
anyhow, I stumbled into this small cafe in the Latin district by accident while grazing past it on a bus en route to another place to eat. after walking out not impressed with the menu at Kayser, I walked back here to find that despite the initial appearance of a small joint, it was packed inside and with a lively atmosphere.
the owners were ahem, shall I say again? very friend Colombian people.
I was happy to have a use for Spanish for once in this country that speaks predominantly French, and right away came my appetizer, then my drink, and meal accordingly.
I like that in France there's a fixed price of a combo with entree + plat + dessert.
With my fresh guava juice, my check came out to be under 20€. the whole meal itself was 12€, but make sure to get there before 3, as this is a happy hour offer.
I loved the ambiance and the decor and the sincerity of the staff. shall I ever return to paris, I will make the trip back here! -

Good and fast service, large portions of great food and all that under the Salvador Dali's sun dial.

We stopped here for lunch after our first choice, an unnamed Chinese place down the street, ignored us and the menu was not impressive. It turned out to a great choice for us. After not having anything Latin/Mexican for about 6 weeks, this place was perfect for us.
They have a set menu for 10 Euro and I got the guacamole with chips as a starter and chicken chipotle as the main course. The guac was very mediocre but had a nice kick from the red sauce on top. The chips left something to be desired.
The chicken was killer. Without a doubt, it was the BEST chicken I ever had in my life. It came as a quarter with leg and thigh. It was just unbelievably tender and flavorful. It not only was prepared perfectly, but obviously they raise chickens differently in France than the US. The rice was very flavorful as well, I ate every kernel. The salad was similar to cole slaw but without mayo and I liked it too. It turned out to be an excellent lunch, one of the best I have had in Paris. If you like Latin American or Mexican food, you need to give this place a try. it is located about 10 minute walk from Notre Dame. -

For everyone saying this is a Colombian restaurant, the place obviously states that it does South American cuisine, so while there may be some Colombian aspects, this run down, mediocre at best shoddy burrito spot shouldn't be associated solely with Colombia. The staff was not rude, but indifferent and not attentive. The bathroom was disgusting, the sink broken, the upholstery on the seats torn and uncomfortable, and the food mostly bland. Avoid if you can, but if you must settle for somewhere as we did, don't get the burrito. And no, I'm not white so the reviews saying only white people dislike this place are (obviously) wrong.

Staff was not that attentive, took them a while to help us out, but in there defense we got there when they had opened. Food was decent and it gave me the fix I needed after not eating Latin food in 3 weeks. Prices were about 10 to 15 euros per plate.
