“Wonderful and authentic food in an upcoming neighborhood”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

If you're tired of the tourist spots and are looking for a wonderful, quiet dinner with fresh and unique food -- head down Petronia St. past Blue Heaven to Zulma's Columbian Grace. The restaurant has great ambiance, with indoor and outdoor seating.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, including the appetizer special with brie and guacamole on a cuban-like bread (yes, it sounds weird, but it was amazing), Mom's Casserole, and Bandeja Paisa. The red sangria was sweeter than most we've had -- and we liked it better because of that that! They have white sangria as well, which we'll try next time!

We were too stuffed to have dessert (although the options sounded incredible), so we had some perfectly brewed french press coffee to cap our incredible meal.

The service was perfect and impeccable (thank you Thierry) -- and Zulma herself stopped out to see us after our meal. Sated and relaxed, we heading back out into the perfect evening, happier for having been there. Highly recommend!

“What a great find!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012 via mobile

Off the beaten path. Alfresco dining. Food cooked fresh to order. Friendly service.

Had breakfast here instead of the touristy restaurant just up the street. Glad we were flexible.

“A Key West "MUST" Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 15, 2012 via mobile

Simply put, Colombian Grace has it all: an undeniably beyond tasteful dynamic menu selection, spectacular dinner presentation, a visually lush rustic contemporary ambiance, and unparalleled staff that rival the best of the best (I.e., the impeccable and very entertaining server Thierry is a "must" do, they take reservations so our advice is to make him as a special request ) all cumulatively make for a memorable and fanciful experience. The restaurant also has merchandise to take a piece if the experience with you and the ambience makes for many photographically inspiring opportunities. It's located conveniently near everything down town, but is a little slice of Heaven that definitely stands out from the rest on its own.

“What a surprise! Colombian off broadway!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

This breakfast was one of the best I have ever had!
I started out with the french toast casserole which was like a gooey coffee cake with nuts and raisins mmmm good! Then a toasty hot chocolate and a very thin bread covered with toasted cheese and topped with butter and salt. Dipping that into the hot coaco was heaven! I also had the omellete of goat cheese, and spinach and tomatoes, and a delicious chili like bean sauce covering the bright yellow perfectly cooked omellete. little white potatoes ganished the plate, they were tasty small bite size from colombia. I loved tasting the culture...and it fit in perfectly to the Key West experience...I will come here every time. I had dinner there the same night and it was really perfect...the red snapper grilled with a light batter, a very light batter covered with a white cream sauce w/capers, served with a neat pile of white rice. Yum, Yum!!! Try the white sangria WOW! The owner is always there and a beautiful person and cook.

“Don't over-think it: GO HERE FOR GREAT FOOD!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 11, 2012

Colombian grace is undoubtedly one of the best restaurants in Key West. Don't go to a tourist trap- this is seriously great food. The owner stopped at the table to check on our experience(great!), and had a few minutes to chat. Off the beaten path, which is definitely a plus.
