The best restaurant we ate in during our 2 week trip in Colombia. The food was exceptionally delicious, the service was great and the restaurant had nice interior. The inspiration behind the restaurant can also be felt while being there. Highly recommendable! One thing that we disliked were the prices of drinks, the food prices were ok but in our opinion drinks were a little bit overpriced.

Had such an amazing experience at Gabo.med — everything from start to finish felt thoughtful and elevated. The atmosphere is beautiful and vibrant, perfect for a special night out or a fun dinner with friends. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish feeling fresh, creative, and full of flavor. What really made the night stand out, though, was the service. Lorena and María José were incredible — attentive, warm, and genuinely made us feel taken care of the entire time. They had great recommendations, checked in at the perfect moments, and added such a positive energy to the experience. You can tell this place really cares about both the food and the people. Definitely one of those spots you leave already planning to come back to. Highly recommend!
