The penne with seafood was spot on&mdash;sauce was tasty and the pasta had that perfect bite. Prices are fair for what you get. Service didnt disappoint either.

The staff were friendly enough, and the food came out looking really nice. We ordered a few things to share&mdash;the presentation was the highlight, honestly. Flavors were decent, pretty solid overall. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger for the price. But it&rsquo;s a fine spot if you&rsquo;re in the area.

Great spot for real Mexican food in Manizales. They have way more options than most places around here. Really enjoyed the variety on the menu.

The waiter remembered my coffee order from last time and brought those homemade cookies again. Such a nice touch. Seats were comfy too, made the whole meal feel easy.

Been coming here since they opened and honestly the burgers still hit that homemade spot. Some of my old faves are off the menu which kinda sucks, but the meat and bun quality never changed. Took my friends last week and we all left happy. Solid pick if you&#39;re craving a real burger 🍔

Tucked inside a hotel, easy to walk past. But the food surprised me. Ingredients tasted fresh, well-sourced. Dishes were simple though, nothing fancy. Had the grilled fish, cooked just right. Maybe a bit overpriced for what you get, but solid if you&#39;re staying nearby. Wouldn&#39;t go out of my way for it.

Steak and sea bass were both solid, cooked just right. Place is inside a boutique hotel, pretty nice vibe. Price felt fair for what you get.

The rooftop view of Manizales is the main draw here, and it doesn&#39;t disappoint. The salmon with coconut sauce was well-prepared and flavorful, and the pesto chicken was also a solid choice. Just note that the dessert selection can be limited if you arrive early.

The charcoal flavor in the burger patty really comes through&mdash;smoky and deep. Probably one of the better burgers I&rsquo;ve had in Manizales. Nothing fancy about the place, but the meat does the talking. I&rsquo;d go back just for that. Maybe next time I&rsquo;ll try the fries too.

Dropped by for dinner and honestly the carimanolas with confit duck were the highlight. Tarragon sauce gave it a nice kick. Plating looked sharp too. Portions decent for the price. Place was a bit quiet for a Friday but whatever. Solid pick if you&#39;re in Manizales and want something a little fancier.

Rocking Bacon Cheeseburger hit the spot. Bun was soft, bacon actually crispy. Sat outside, decent view. Menu has enough options for tourists. Service was quick, got my food in like 10 minutes. Place was a bit busy but whatever. Solid quick bite if you&#39;re in the area.

Came for the sunset view and honestly that&rsquo;s the whole reason to go 😍 Manizales looks amazing from up there. Food was just okay but who cares when the city looks that good.

The vegan chocolate chip cookies are seriously good&mdash;I came back two years later just for them and they didn&#39;t disappoint.

The burrata salad with crispy corn was the first thing that got my attention, and honestly it didn&#39;t disappoint. The pork knuckle came apart so easily, super juicy. Ended with the soursop cup, which was just the right amount of sweet. A solid meal, though I wish the portions were a bit bigger.

The cafe de la casa with honey, cinnamon, and cloves was really good. Staff actually took the time to explain the options when I couldn&#39;t decide.

Stopped by to grab some tropical fruit candies and preserves. Tasting before buying is a nice touch&mdash;staff actually knows the products and doesn&rsquo;t rush you. Picked up a few bags, prices are fair for the quality. Place is small but organized. If you&rsquo;re in the area and like trying local sweets, it&rsquo;s a decent stop.
