Casa Colombia

Standing out like an island in an ocean of Tex-Mex, Casa offers flavors from a bit farther south of the border: yuca frita, savory empanadas, arepas, tamales wrapped in plantain leaves, and chimichurri. Try the rum-based Coco Loco, served in a hollowed coconut, to kick things up a notch.
