I love Tintico, if I could rate it higher, I would. The area can be sketchy but harmless and inside you barely feel the hectic historic center. The daily menu is exquisite and the staff is always friendly, attentive and wam. I come to Tintico every time I can!
Everything tastes good, like the food in Colombia. If you ask for a bandeja paisa request the chicharron para colombiano so they make it the colombian way. Once there make sure you try the arepas (with cheese , the patacon con carne desmechada (fried and smashed green plantain with meat sticks and hogao , the empanadas and the carimañolas (a dish from the colombian costa . The chorizo is made locally and have a great taste. The restaurant is near the historial center, so be sure to get there early (particularly on Saturdays because the surroundings are full of people and cars. The place is nice and the customer service very good. Spanish Todo muy bueno. Si pide la bandeja paisa, que el chicharrón sea para colombiano . No deje de probar las arepas con queso, el patacón con carne desmechada, las empanadas y las carimañolas. El chorizo es hecho en casa y sabe muy bien. Súper recomendado, vayan con tiempo porque está en el Centro Histórico y todo alrededor se congestiona muy rápido. Excelente sitio y atención.
I have visited a couple of Colombian places in Mexico City, but this one is I think, the best so far! The presentation, the flavours, the quality of food! the drinks!!! Everything was really good!! Even the waiter!!! My favourite!!
We find this small and amazing place, hiding in the middle of Mexico downtown, looking for a Colombian restaurant with traditional food we found Tintico to celebrate our mom's bday, cos she lived many years in Colombia, and she was so happy, the food brought her back to those typical flavours. Surely we will go back there again and see what are the surprises they will have to offer.
