I was delighted with this restaurant. I must admit it was my first time here, and I was a bit hesitant at first, but the food was so flavorful and delicious. It felt like eating at home. The service was excellent, especially Jaily, who was fantastic. If you’re ever in Doral, you absolutely must try this restaurant.

El Machetico is truly one of the best Colombian restaurants in Doral! The food was absolutely delicious; full of authentic flavors that made us feel right at home. The lentils and the cazuela were perfectly seasoned and cooked with the true Colombian sazón that you can’t easily find elsewhere. Every dish was rich, flavorful, and prepared with great care.
The service was warm and welcoming, adding to the overall experience and making us feel like family. If you’re looking for real Colombian food in Doral, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend El Machetico with my eyes closed; one of the best culinary experiences in doral town!

I stopped by this restaurant for lunch after the renovation and I was absolutely blown away! The atmosphere was bright and inviting. They have daily specials for an affordable price and the food is delicious. I work nearby, therefore, going for lunch is very convenient but ordering from their website is super easy with fast delivery.

I just had the Sancocho de costilla at El Machetito — and wow, it was amazing! The portion was big, the flavor was spot on, and it really hit the spot. Super happy with my meal. Definitely recommend it if you’re craving real comfort food!

I asked for the machetico paisa, the beef was rotten, I told them about it. They took the plate gave me a fresh beef but the base rice beans and plantain still had all the juices from the rotten steak. I wasted 38 on a meal I could only eat the chicharron because it was placed on the top tier of the platter.

So fire! I would come back again. There is a lot of food on your plate. The flavors are amazing and very fresh. I tried the chicken saltedo with white rice, tostones, and red beans.

Was craving Colombian food when I discovered El Machetico. My boyfriend and I came by around 4 on a weekday. This hole in the wall was relatively packed with customers–some dining in and some taking food to go. We grabbed a menu at the front and skimmed over it. I knew I wanted a Bandeja Paisa $13.99 so we ordered that to share. Being extremely hungry, we made the mistake of ordering other things as well thinking that would not be enough which in fact it was. We also got a pan de bono, empanada, an extra chorizo, and the soup of the day which was lentils. OH MAN! The previous reviews were correct in that all the food here has a home style taste!
The bandeja was delicious, an appropriate size, and smoky in flavor—fresh off the grill. The extra chorizo was huge and not really necessary for us to order especially since I didn’t realize that the tasty beans that came with the bandeja would be served in a massive soup bowl. The lentils were on point and the arepa perfect. The only thing I did not like while here was their pan de bono and empanada but that was because they had been sitting out all day and not fresh…..understandable since they were closing soon.
My boyfriends parents work in the area in which I will definitely be recommending this place for their lunch break and now only wish I worked as close!

Edit after 2 years: They are still great, now look at their in-house food presentation.
I have been ordering cantina from them by some months already. What they offer is absolutely amazing by the price. And they have legitimate Colombian flavor. Not all colombian restaurants will taste as if you’re literally eating in Colombia. Great job guys.
