Authentic Colombian food! Amazing service! Their pan de bono and empanadas are the best I have ever had! The servings are family style, so be prepared to eat your heart out or take home. View all feedback. What Barbara V doesn't like about Donde Julio:
Restaurant way overpriced. I had breakfast there and could not get over what they charged me! There were no other guests the whole time. They need to add more value priced items for me to go back View all feedback.

Nestled in Hartford, this authentic Colombian restaurant offers a delightful culinary experience marked by generous portions and exceptional service. Diners rave about the flavorful pan de bono, empanadas, and mouthwatering bandeja, which often provide leftovers for later. While some express concerns over limited English proficiency and the occasionally slow service due to a small staff, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff, like the attentive server Diana, create a positive dining experience. Priced fairly for the quality, this gem is worth a visit—especially for those craving homemade, vibrant Colombian cuisine. Just be prepared for a wait during busy times.
