"El Portico remains a staple in Bogota’s main dining places. A 45 minute drive from our hotel, had the old bullfighting ring still around. My trout was perfectly cooked and their patacon pisado con guacamole was a delight"

"We entered this place at the last minute, they were already closing and they let us eat, right from the entrance gate service at this place was excellent, without leaving aside their food of course. As a starter we ordered delicious cheese empanadas, and a sangria. Main dishes we ordered charcoal-grilled trout (exquisite), pork chop cooked to perfection with passion fruit sauce. This dish was finger-licking good. And finally, the paella, which was good in taste but needed a little improvement in presentation. For dessert, something we hadn't tried and that pleasantly surprised us was their guava & cheese in a few words, “delicious” If you are in the area, give this beautiful place a chance."

"Great typical Colombian food in a Spanish colonial architectural setup for the best possible typical dining experience. Portions are incredibly generous for a price that while a bit on the high end, is totally reasonable for the quality of the offered food. Typical Colombian dances can be seen on special events. A walk around the premises is a must after finishing your meal."
