Why Travelers Love Pajares Salinas
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
My uncle used to eat here all the time, decades ago. He felt at home and appreciated that rare possibility of being fed even better than at home. This restaurant has a rich history and it still definitely lives up to it. All the food is excellent, but this time, we focused on tapas… I probably tried 7 of them and they were all as good as you’d find at the most respected spots in Madrid. The restaurant itself is designed in a classical style that is timeless. Upstairs they have a separate, more private bar. There is also a very quaint outdoor sitting area. Servers are true professionals. This is easily a top-5 restaurant in Colombia for locals and for visitors in the know. The food was delicious. Traditional ambiance, very attentive service, if you order paella you need to take into account 40-60min for preparation. Croqueta de jamon can be improved ;-) everything else was great! Fantastic place. Service and food. Thanks to team for looking after us.

Best authentic Spanish restaurant in Colombia in my opinion. From the service to the menu of appetizers and main dishes to desserts or the wine or drink selections, everything is first class. One of my favorite appetizers from Spainish restaurants is Boqueones ( fresh anchovies in olive oil and vinegar and garlic ) , this restaurant had them served absolutely delicately and served as delicious as the ones you get in Madrid . We also had the garlic mushrooms and then the Chetaubriabd steak whicb was absolutely cooked to perfection . Wife had the veal Milanese and asparagus soup which was delicious. We had Spanish red wine and it was delicious. The place has a classy vibe with indoor and outdoor seating . Elegant , professional and courteous. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant has a great bar and seating area that does not encroach on the dining area . Highly recommended.
