Casa Vieja is a classic restaurant that dives into the rich roots of Colombian cooking. The original restaurant opened 50 years ago in La Candelaria, the historical downtown area. They later opened one in a former monastery in the nearbyCentro Internacional, and another one recently opened in a red tiled roof house in Usaquén that feels, well, like a charming Casa Vieja (old house). Here the bandeja paisa takes on another personality, getting the original paisa name, tipico montañero, and tastes like a meal cooked right on the farm by the abuela (grandmother).

Casa Vieja is also one of the best places to get a true ajiaco. The soup is made with the best quality traditional ingredients and the portions are large. In fact, the restaurant promises if you are still hungry after eating the first bowl, you can have a second one on the house.
