From the tamales of Tolima to seafood simmered on the coast — the recipes haven't changed since we opened. That's the point.
Colombia is a country of coasts on two oceans, three mountain ranges, immense valleys, high plains and Amazon jungle — and that geography gives it one of the richest culinary cultures in the Americas.
The combination of exotic ingredients and authentic recipes makes our food unique in flavor.
Mi Pueblito was founded to promote and keep that richness alive in the United States — with gentle, kind service and a taste of our wonderful Colombia. Mi Pueblito

Colombian food isn't one thing — it changes with every region. Consider this a little dictionary of where our signature dishes come from.
The heart of the country — slow-cooked corn dough and whole roast pork, wrapped and baked the old way.
The high Andes and its cold mornings: broths and soups built to warm two-thousand-meter air.
The mountain tables of Medellín — the platters that feed a whole family and then some.
Two oceans, one pot: seafood simmered in coconut milk the way the Caribbean and Pacific coasts do it.
