Mirador Del Lago - Restaurante-Parrilla-Bar

My wife and I had a very enjoyable lunch here, mostly since I decided to try the regional specialties of bandeja paisa and mazomorra, which had been recommended by a Colombian friend prior to our traveling to Colombia, The bandeja paisa was a very hearty dish that I liked a lot, especially with the spicy aji served on the side (although completely consumed by me).

Guatape is a fun desination cuz there is lots of activity, especially with piedra del penol nearby. We wanted to eat lunch on the waterfront, but were somewhat disappointed with that expeience.

Since we spend the day with a local, she insisted on trying a Sancocho: a tasty and richly filled soup/stew (chicken, plantain, patato). We ended up at the 5th floor with lake view of Mirador (all floors have view). The sancocho was served with: Plantain, avocado, rise, banana.. too much! Nice view, nice local food.

Good customer service, nice view, but that's it. Food isn't nice, doesn't have any taste, I found a hair in my fish and afterwards I got sick. The pictures I posted everything looks pretty good, but isn't the reality.

The food is typical Colombian food, so if you're not tired of it yet, you can have good bandeja paisa and such. Portions are large and the fried fish fillet is delicious. Service is super slow.
