Pueblito Viejo

Pueblito Viejo #2 takes its cue from its Chicago-based predecessor, serving up delightful homemade Colombian dishes in a charming saloon-style setting that captures the essence of Barranquilla. Founded in 2003 by owner Gonzalo Rodriguez, who was inspired by a Colombian folk song, this second restaurant continues to charm its patrons.

Among the standout appetizers are the succulent arepas with Colombian sausage and pork rinds. A must-try main course is the "churrasco pueblito viejo en tabla," a butterfly-grilled skirt steak served with fried sweet plantains, cassava, and salted boiled potatoes.
