Albenzu has been serving Colombian cuisine for 126 years. But, what makes Albenzu stand out is where it strays from the typical Colombian food experience.

Rather than suffering the daunting task of eating a huge plate of beans, Albenzu serves a tiny dish as an appetizer, almost like tapas. 

The familiar line-up of grilled meat and fish also takes on a new light as the excellent service ensures you consume another glass of sangria.

With predominantly wooden surroundings and the occasional appearance by a live band, the atmosphere becomes merry and you realise the only thing Colombians enjoy more than their own food is their own dancing.

Anyone prepared to admit it’s their birthday gets 50% off their meal and a slightly embarrassing rendition of happy birthday from Albenzu's waiting staff.
