Cafe de Artistas & Bistro Bar

I am surprised to see all the extremely bad reviews of this place. The food was a little slow, but we had a pizza and a panini and both were very good. I had a mojito that was delicious and the servers couldn't have been... more friendly. Certainly, the food was a little slow, but they were on our drinks service and we had a good time. We stayed the next morning for coffee (after dinner there in the night before), which was excellent. They were very nice and accommodating. Great location.

Do not bury the tip: The menu says that the tip is not included. The waiter told me the same after I cleared the table (including the bill I didn't need). I wanted to leave a cash tip for our group, but asked to confirm the bill. 10% service was included as it was custom in all Colombia. When I asked, the waiter confirmed that this was the tip that contradicts the contradiction to what he had told me earlier. Food was average, location was great, but I hate to deal with these types of tourist traps that lie directly to gringos. Never go back.

We ordered a lasagna and a panini. The salami in the panini was very unsightly, but the lasagna was even bad. It was a frozen lasagna (both you can buy at the supermarket, and I know they served it frozen. I had to send it back once, and I didn't do it twice, because I was ashamed to do it again, because how waiters were acting. They made the mistake of serving us a hampanini instead of salami, the worst part was the struggle of the waitress and the cook had about it. In general, the service was terrible, the way they feel us, the attention to us despite the restaurant was almost empty, the many mistakes they did (not only with the panini, also with drinks, etc.). I don't recommend going there.

We had a big lunch and were looking for something little. That fits the bill. My husband had pizza and I had a chicken and mushroom crest. Nothing special, but not bad.

I ate here for breakfast several times. It is not a gourmet meal. But the 3 eggs are well prepared with slices of toast and fresh coffee (not instant coffee) and fresh orange juice. Other juices are available. The service is good and the prices...are reasonable. I went once to a gourmet breakfast place nearby and the orange juice was more water than juice. The croissants are not so great. The toast is a better choice.
