⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had an amazing experience at Candelaria. This Colombian restaurant truly makes you feel at home from the moment you walk in.
Everything was absolutely delicious — all of their bowls are absolutely delicious. Every dish is full of flavor and beautifully prepared.
I especially have to highlight their fresh juices — they are incredible! So refreshing, flavorful, and made with that authentic homemade taste that’s hard to find.
And the almojábanas… simply perfect. Soft on the inside, full of flavor, and clearly made fresh. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite.
I would definitely come back again and again. If you’re looking for authentic Colombian food, Candelaria is a must-visit! ✨

Worth the stop! All the food was great here! The coffee was also amazing. I definitely recommend the chicken and rice dish, that was fantastic. There was a slight language barrier when ordering, but we were able to order everything without an issue !

We took a detour and found this gem! We had the Paisa & A caballo bowl. EVERY SINGLE ITEM was soo good. The beef empanadas have potatoe which gave a savory taste. Fresh full of flavor. The mint lemonade was super refreshing and just the perfect blend of sweetness. The added chorizo and arepa was a great pairing. The chorizo tastes in house made.
Finished with a cafe con leche and slice of almojabana that so freaking good! Can’t wait to come back.

If you are looking for the real taste of Colombia in Florida, this is the place. The food feels incredibly fresh and natural, just like a homemade meal back in Colombia.
The chicharrones were outstanding—perfectly crispy and flavorful. But the real star of the show was the torta de almojábana; it’s easily the best dessert I’ve had in a long time. Authentic flavors and great atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Ordered the yukka fries, the corn cheese pancake and corn guava cheese pie. Wished they had more gluten free options due to celiac. They use a bouillon that has gluten that is available gluten free. Owner will look into it which would ooo pine up more options for celiacs and gluten free. Amazing flavor! Portion of cake is small for the $$$. After I paid I saw they have a rewards program and the PO person failed to tell me. I asked to have the rewards added and she said next time. I wanted the points so the owner had to get involved. He was so kind and offered to saw the food was onvv v the house. He couldn’t have been nicer and kind. They just need to train their staff to ask about the loyalty program Would come back. Clean, and unusual foods. Small business but with an owner who understands customer service he’ll do well. Enjoyed the cuisine of Colombia!

This was a great little cafe and something good and different from all the other typical breakfast menus the chain restaurants in offer. I wasn’t sure what to order so I asked the cashier her favorite breakfast meal and I ordered that – the arepa ropa vieja. It was so good – I ate the whole thing! My husband had the calentao de las casa and loved that too. The espresso coffee was excellent. Great little cafe and pleasant people and unique! ♥️

Local Columbian food. Reasonable prices. Eat-in ambiance not dissimilar to casual quick food dining like Chipotle, but way better. They are very friendly and service oriented.
The food is satisfying both to the eye and the palate. Will eat here again, you should too!

Delicious and truly authentic! I’m originally from Colombia, and the flavors were exactly like home. The plantains and paisa bowl were amazing, and the almojábana cake with coffee was the perfect dessert. So happy to find a place that gets it just right!
