11200 W Flagler St
First up, we have La Colina Comidas Rapidas. Great food at a great price, this Colombian fast food joint was established in 2003 and has been a local favorite for many years. It's the perfect place for a casual night out with friends or family.
Though it may not stand out at first glance, once you go in and start tasting their delicious perros (hot dogs), you are definitely going to ask yourself, “Why haven't I eaten here every single day of my life?!”. It is also open until 2 am on weekdays and 3 am on weekends and offers delivery.
Some of their most famous dishes include their perros, tequenos, patacones, and arepas rellenas. Be warned — their food can be addictive!
702 71st St, Miami Beach
If you are looking for a place to give you a genuine Colombian feeling, Mi Colombia Cafeteria is your spot. Loved by locals and visitors, this diner has everything you would expect a Colombian restaurant to have: charming ambience, great food, amazing service, and family-owned.
Because it only has bar seating, it's not really made for big groups, but it's good for small families or a small group of friends, and even if you want to go and enjoy a meal by yourself. However, you'll never be truly alone in a friendly and inviting place like this one!
A great thing about Mi Colombia is that they're also open in the mornings if you are in need of some tasty, traditional breakfast. It's the perfect way to fuel before exploring more of the area. Check out our Ultimate Miami Beach Travel Guide for tips!
8285 SW 40th St
A truly sweet name for a truly sweet restaurant. Pueblito Viejo offers a full bar, music, dancing, and everything you need to experience a fun Colombian night in Miami! It's great for big groups looking for exciting nights or for couples looking for a different kind of date.
The food is very typical and delicious. Their churrasco with chimichurri is something that you have to order when you come here, and the chicharron is a fan favorite. And with eclectic decor on the walls and ceilings, you'll enjoy a charming dining experience!
841 Washington Ave, Miami Beach
Bolivar is simply a great dining experience, bringing a trendy restaurant/club vibe with a combination of different South American influences, especially Colombian.
The staff is exceptional and the food is even better. Perfect for a night out or a date, Bolivar mixes a very modern ambience with the rustic and traditional feeling of amazing Colombian food. They have patacones, bandeja paisa, empanadas, and the one dish we recommend the most, eche ceviche.
Not only is Bolivar good for dinner, but the lounge atmosphere also makes it a great spot for a laid-back brunch. While it may appear touristy at first, you'll find plenty of locals dining here. In fact, we even include it as part of our South Beach, Miami, Food and Art Deco Tour, and on our list of the Top 20 Restaurants in Miami!
710 Washington Ave #2, Miami Beach
La Ventana has been in South Beach for many years and is considered one of the best Colombian restaurants in the area, loved by both locals and visitors from all over the country. Make sure you come here with an appetite because their meals are so big and tasty that you'll want to eat the entire thing, even if you are already completely full!
Some of their specialties include patacones, picada Colombiana and bandeja paisa, all very typical Colombian dishes. But the one we recommend is perro Colombiano, a Colombian-style hot dog topped with cheese, pineapple sauce, pink sauce, and potato chips.
With friendly staff that makes you feel at home, good food, a nice ambience, and they're also open for breakfast, what's there not to love about this place?
