Albenzu has been serving Colombian cuisine for over 126 years.

Albenzu is an old pro when it comes to the familiar line-up of grilled meats and fish.

That said, the old dog has some master modern touches up his sleeve – including serving beans in a tiny dish as an appetizer, almost like tapas – while he’s clearly mastered the art of a quality sangria.

With predominantly wooden surroundings and the occasional appearance by a live band, the atmosphere can become quite merry and it’s not uncommon for things to get our of hand with some impromptu dancing.

Anyone prepared to admit it’s their birthday gets 50% off their meal and a slightly embarrassing rendition of happy birthday from Albenzu’s waiting staff.
