We are visiting Colombia on vacation, and I came here with my partner and 2 young kids. This is by far one of the best restaurants I have ever ate at. The food was unique, and absolutely delicious! So many interesting flavours. The staff were brilliant and were very friendly, and accommodating towards our children. We will definitely be back before leave Colombia and hope to visit Colombia to come back here!!!!

An amazing restaurant that focuses on using indigenous and Amazonian ingredients. Tons of new things I don’t get to try back home like lulo and pirarucu. Flavors were dynamic but balanced, and the presentation was so colorful. So good I came twice during my 3 day trip in Bogotá.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night. It was not busy. Got seated right away. The staff was friendly. We had some cocktails which were excellent. The dishes were great as well. Very unique and flavorful. Would recommend it.

When we stumbled upon Minimal we had had a day of heavy eating so we weren’t very hungry and only sampled the starters! I wish we could come back and try some of the mains! The starters were to die for, unmissable are the balls of plantain with crab filling and the plantain with octopus and mint! The flavour of each dish perfectly balanced salt, fat, acid, heat, a feast for your taste buds!

Came back twice in the same day because the food was incredible and we wanted to try more of it. Definitely the food highlight of these two weeks travelling all over Colombia. Don’t miss out!

Simply exquisite food that is thoughtfully conceived with deep cultural roots. Secret-garden vibes on the patio and an intimate feel indoors. Staff that care about the food they’re serving and want you to have a good time. Bespoke cocktails with flavors that will feel novel to any foreigner and many Colombians. English and Spanish spoken. Vegetarian options abound. Nothing we had was bad, and everything was healthy.

We had dinner here one night whilst in Bogotá & I would recommend it. It’s in a nice area with a few wine bars less than 2min walk away which we stopped in after dinner. I would say it’s a Colombian fusion menu & the portion sizes are very good so you could 100% share the main dishes. The best dish for us was the fish empanadas which we had to start. I would go back just to have them again on their own.
