Parva Colombian Bakery And Cafe

In my opinion, this is the best Colombian restaurant in the Orlando area. The food was incredible and brought back fond memories of home. The empanadas were large and freshly prepared, and the arepa paisa was delicious. The picada was exceptional too. Additionally, the service was excellent. While the prices are somewhat higher, it's definitely worth it.

First time I came to this restaurant and I only got empanadas which were beef and chicken and both of those were really good. They had two sauce choices and those were both excellent. Lot of display windows with other food in them and I can?t wait to goback and try the rest of the offerings. I have been told several different things that are excellent here.

The arepa paisa with meat was too tough for me to enjoy, but the meat and toppings were incredibly flavorful. The corn cake had a texture reminiscent of a frisbee, though the chorizo really hit the spot. I thoroughly enjoyed the pastel de pollo; it was quite delicious. I was a bit let down by the empanada. However, the tres leches dessert was absolutely perfect—a true chef's kiss!

The food is fantastic, the restaurant is spotless, and the staff is very friendly. I love that they offer their full menu all day long, unlike some places that limit their options for breakfast and lunch. The pan con lechon sandwich is outstanding. The churrasco sauce has a tangier flavor, leaning more towards vinegar than saltiness, which might reflect a difference between Colombian and Cuban styles.

I was extremely disappointed with my experience. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and a pleasure to interact with. Unfortunately, the food was terrible. It was low quality and lacked any taste. The bandeja paisa was completely flavorless—just greasy pork and hard rice, and the other items on the plate didn't improve the experience at all, as they were also tasteless. The plain arepa de choclo was both salty and excessively greasy. We ended up wasting about 60 dollars on food that we couldn’t eat. I am beyond dissatisfied. View menu

They serve a GENEROUS amount of hot, fresh, food. The staff is welcoming, and they have a self-serve bar for cutlery and to-go boxes which is very accommodating. The women's bathroom unfortunately had no paper towels to dry my hands with. The cafe conleche was very bitter and strong. They wierdly put scenic videos of Singapore on all of the televisions, which I thought theyshould've put Columbian views or videos on instead. The bread pudding was okay. The create-your-own-plate was a new, genius ideathat I liked to order. I recommend getting their passion fruit juice (with water), it tasted sour, sweet, and refreshing on ahot summer day.

I ordered the Pollo a la Parrilla, which was served with a salad, black beans, and cilantro rice. Everything was fresh, made to order, and very flavorful. The prices are similar to those at other restaurants, making it a good value for a meal. They also have weekend specials posted on a board at the entrance, but be aware that they tend to sell out quickly. One thing to note is that there isn’t a soda machine; they only offer canned or bottled beverages. I was hoping for tap water, which isn’t available, just so you're aware. Additionally, the background music was a bit loud, which could be something to consider. I had been looking forward to my visit after seeing them featured in an Insta... View menu
