About El Guapo

El Guapo brings a lively energy to the La Candelaria district of Bogotá, and the location alone makes it feel like the kind of place people stumble upon once and immediately want to revisit. Sitting at Cra. 4a #27 - 03, this restaurant blends a relaxed atmosphere with a modern social vibe, creating a space where quick lunches easily turn into long evening hangouts. The setting feels casual without being boring, and there is always something happening around the tables, especially when happy hour starts drawing in groups looking for cocktails, beer, and flavorful small plates. The menu keeps things interesting with a mix of comforting bites and lighter options, so it works equally well for someone craving a fast meal or a more laid-back dine-in experience with friends.

One thing that stands out about El Guapo is how flexible it feels for different kinds of visitors. Some people stop by for a quick bite and coffee during the day, while others settle in for cocktails and happy hour food after work. The vegetarian options help broaden the appeal, and the addition of organic dishes gives the menu a fresher, more thoughtful touch without making the restaurant feel overly formal. The atmosphere stays approachable, which matches the informal style of the neighborhood itself.

Service options also make the place convenient for different routines. Dine-in works well if you want to enjoy the social atmosphere, yet takeout and delivery make it easy to enjoy the food from home. No-contact delivery is another practical detail that many guests appreciate. Between the drinks menu, the casual energy, and the steady flow of flavorful plates coming out of the kitchen, El Guapo captures the kind of upbeat Bogotá dining experience that feels easy to enjoy at almost any hour of the day.

Lamb tacos to share and for desert salty caramel donut. Entries are great for sharing. The staff is friendly and the service is fast.

I’ve been in Bogotá for 1,5 years now and discovered a lot of eateries in the city over this time, from corrientazos to tasting menu fine dining. El Guapo is by far not only one of my favourite places in Bogotá, but possibly one of the best junk/comfort food restaurants I know in the world. I’ve now tried almost all of their sandwiches and every single time I thought I was trying the best one on the menu, only to be surprised by the next one. The birria and kimchi sandwiches are full of so many different flavours, while Banh Mi is an exepctionslly well balanced and fresh bun, and possibly the best Banh Mi you will get in Bogotá. And please get a dona if you can - they are all just as fantastic

A must visit in Bogota!! We came here two days in a row, our favourite restaurant in the city. Amazing food, really cool fusion flavours. We ordered the Tortaco de Cochinita, Kimchilicious sandwiches, and the Alitas de Puerco with Mazorcas Asadas. All incredible.

Best food in Bogota! If you are looking for some Korean options, this is a must. I tried the kimchilicious and it was amaaazing. Mandu is also tasty, and the Indian empanaditas are delicious.

Great food, excellent service, very well located. Spicy food, very tasty. It's a chef's proposal that incorporates elements from asian, peruvian and colombian cuisine. Very recommended
