    Great variety of authentic Colombia cuisine. The Bandeja Paisa was delicious. The breaded pork however was very thin and overcooked. The peas soup was ok(the peas were a bit hard). The service was very good and the ambiance felt like your typical latin restaurant.

    This place really surprise me. The place is big and decoration was very Colombian, everything was clean and tables had enough space between each other, everybody was in uniforms making it feel like a well prepared workers. We came for Memorial Day, and the place was full. It took a little longer for the service, but it was worth it. Great attention starting from the hosted DIEGO and RAUL we're very patience and was recommending things without putting pressure, he came to the table a couple time to check on our food and make sure we didn’t need anything while we were eating but still gave us our space and time to eat and relax in our own time. We started with the empanadas and tostones rellenos, and it was perfect for the food we got. We got a picada for two “Carne llanera” (medium) that comes with steam potatoes and fried sweet plantain, the meat was tender and had that particular charcoal Smokey flavor very características of this type of preparation, the picada include tostones and arepas, match perfect with the meat and of course potatoes and plantains were perfect, the portion was big, it was a lot of meat. And we finished with a “Tres leches Natas” that we shared, it was fantastic, really creamy and actually it wasn’t that sweet, it was perfect. Prices were very good for the quality of food they served. Pictures will not make justice for the great flavors and textures we ate.

    As a Colombian, this place is really good! The empanas were so good and not greasy. They were fresh. The bandeja Paisa was sooo good! It’s so big too! The meat was cool really good, the chorizo and chicharrón were delicious! And the cazuela as well! I loved the presentation of the dishes as well. Feels very traditional. For dessert I got postre de Natas. Definitely recommend

    The food was absolutely delicious! They have a great atmosphere with music and decor. However, The service was a bit off mainly because I believe they typically serve a Spanish speaking clientele. Right off the bat your greeted in Spanish & we had to say a few times that we do not speak Spanish. We had an issue with our appetizer not being served. When it was brought to table it was incorrect. A different server came to our table each time and when we mentioned mistake they seemed as though they would fix but then never returned. We weren't charged for the appetizer but it was a bit disappointing that no effort was made to correct. They didn't even tell us they took off ck it was just brushed aside.

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm atmosphere that instantly makes you feel welcome. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you have a great dining experience. The food is the real star here. Every dish I’ve tried has been full of flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked with care. Portions are generous, and you can taste the authenticity in every bite. Whether you’re craving something hearty or just want to enjoy a casual meal with friends and family, Rancho Nando never disappoints. I especially appreciate how consistent they are—each visit feels just as good as the last, which is rare to find these days. The presentation, the freshness of the ingredients, and the overall quality really set this restaurant apart from others in the area. Rancho Nando has become one of my go-to spots in Pembroke Pines, and I always recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food and great service. Without a doubt, it deserves all the praise it gets! Nuvia the Colombian server was great.
