   We had 5 in attendance. This was my first time dining there. The food and service was very good. It was unfortunately very noisy and we couldn't hear anyone in our party to have any type of conversation without almost yelling. That was the only minus. Otherwise it was enjoyable.

   We all love the food at the Columbia but the chairs in the patio area are HORRIBLE. The most uncomfortable chairs ever. Hard seat, hard backs and way too low to the ground. I am short and they were miserable. I could barely last through the meal without my back killing me.

   4pm reservation. Didn’t get seated until 435. No one spoke to us then until 445. Had to flag a server, who turned out to be awesome, but front end of experience was very disappointing. Bread great, salad great , empanadas very good, ….entrees were good.

   It was delicious as always. I love the black bean cakes and 1912 salad. We tried a different dish, polllo Manchego and pretty sure it will be my go to meal now. And we got white sangria instead of red this time and liked it too. We love the Columbia Restaurant. Fortunately we made a reservation as it was packed at 3:00 with an hour wait for a table

   What a wonderful experience for my friends and myself! They have never been to the Columbia and were so excited to try a truly Cuban experience. Needless to say it was so wonderful with exceptional service (lovely lady) can't remember her name..sorry, but she was wonderful!!! My son-in-law Ed Trujillo always talks about the fine dinning and I've been there a few times, but I brought my friends as a thank you for their help with so many things. Again Thank You for everything! Doreen and Ken Dye.
