We were so excited to arrive in Medellin and sample Colombian fare and Mamasita Medallo was high on our list. One of our first stops in the city, we were enticed by the stylish and open design and tempting menu ideal for sharing. Located in the Poblado area, it’s a great spot to start or finish your night out while seeing all the trendy and popular restaurants, bars, and cafes in the world famous neighbourhood.
We loved walking through the welcoming and stylish entrance featuring industrial design, beautiful green accents, and even fun merchandise. The open kitchen allured us with it’s delightful aromas and we were eager to sample some local fare. The staff were friendly and informative letting us know the most popular dishes, Colombian specialities, and which options were suitable for kids.
