Excellent spot to eat and comfortable atmosphere. Not a cheap menu, but the food and sauces were really good.The only complaint I have is that the waiter (who was nice BTW) literally stood looking over us (at the end of the table, a foot away) as we were paying the bill and selecting the tip amount. Very awkward and not proper etiquette in my opinion.

I went to celebrate a friends birthday and the place had a strange smell. Additionally, we ordered a mojarra (fish) and it was so hard and greasy, it was over-fried that they couldnt even eat it. I also ordered some plantains with hogao and it was salty, with a lot of oil and sharp cuts. I dont recommend the restaurant.

Got the Bandeja Tipica. Delicious! The sauce that came with the empanadas were great on everything because it was just a little spicy, but had great flavor. Also had the Strawberry shake with water, definitely recommend if you like fresh strawberry without milk. Staff was great and very patient with me. Recommend eating at this place.

As a first time customer I was very disappointed,The menu did not reflect the price... like it was a first class restaurant. The only have one waitress and one cook which it took a long for the food. The food was ok.The bathroom wasnt presentable it all. Very duty.We ended up almost paying $100.00 for two breakfast and a take out.

I really enjoy the music there, the food are pretty expensive, but it’s delicious, I wish they don’t take a lot of time to serve you, but in general it’s super nice. I know the owner who is not a Colombian 100%, half salvadorean half Colombian, but anyways the food is excellent, the juices delicious and they also serve beer, club Colombia, águila. And the Picada is super big and delicious you can order one for 4 people and everyone will be very full…..

Just moved to Long Beach so this is the First time visiting this restaurant and The food is amazing. My go to Columbia dish is Bandeja Campesina. If ever in Long Beach and want a taste of Colombia, you must try El Paisa.

Ive been coming to this restaurant for over 7 years and as a restaurateur Ive always enjoyed the food and the service, add the fact of Colombian born I know what Colombian food should be!! unfortunately I had a bad experience, for one they no longer list the cost of the food items on the menu so basically they can charge whatever they want youll never know.Quality of food was not there and my sister bit into an empanada and there was a chicken bone in it I wont go back to this restaurant theyve cut corners and its really unfortunate.. time to move on to another Colombian restaurant

Decent food and loud, but good colombian music. The service needs improvement though. They are nice, but not very attentive. They walk right by you, without checking on you. If you don’t mind it. I recommend you to visit this place.

I ordered some pick-up this morning, and I was craving some Colombian food. I ordered 1 chicharon 3 empanadas and a chorizo. Everything costs $25. The food was good and nice. I was just surprised that for so little food, it would cost that much. I got 1 chorizo, and it cost 5 dollars. And the chicharon as well. The food came in two little bags, and it wasnt really that much. Sad that its so expensive I been to other Colombian places that have a while, Picada paisa for just 15, and it brings so much food.
