We initially had a bittersweet experience at this restaurant: although the service was friendly, there was confusion regarding the price of the tasting menu, in addition to some inconsistencies between what was offered and what was served.However, after expressing our dissatisfaction, the restaurant made a very positive gesture, resolving our request. On this second visit, everything changed for the better: the service was impeccable, the timing between courses was better coordinated, the food was noticeably superior, and overall, the experience was much more thoughtful and consistent with what is expected of a tasting menu of this level.We sincerely appreciate the team's willingness to rectify the situation and provide a second opportunity that truly lived up to our expectations. This gesture certainly changed our perception of the place.

I've had about 10 bad and expensive moments in my life, and I've had at least 7. For the price, the location, and the service, you'd expect better quality, but it's just a very nice, run-of-the-mill restaurant. I'd really appreciate the bartender's work; she's very original, very tasty, and has excellent presentation. I won't be back, and I don't recommend going at all.

Definitely disappointed with the price-quality ratio. The price was excessive for the quantity and quality of the dishes. The only good thing was the pairing. I wouldn't go back, I wouldn't recommend it, and I hope no one else falls into this trap.

I returned to this restaurant, which I liked so much, but it turns out they've changed the whole concept. It's now by timing and has a tasting menu. Honestly, it leaves a lot to be desired. There are so many better places to try. We left unsatisfied. It's more of a food show than the food itself. Honestly, I wouldn't go back. The new concept is nothing more than a "tourist trap."

I only had the opportunity to try four courses, and two of the dishes were absolutely delicious: the tomato sauce with marathon sauce and the dessert. I would have loved to go back for the entire tasting menu.

The best experience in Medellín. The tasting menu is perfectly in keeping with the surroundings, suppliers, and products, and offers incredible flavors.The quality of the pairing is exceptional, a must-have in the city.

We were quite disappointed with our experience at Test Kitchen Lab. Considering the price, we expected a much higher standard of food. Unfortunately, the only dish we truly enjoyed was the fish — everything else fell flat in terms of flavor and quality. Overall, it did not live up to the hype, and we wouldn’t recommend it.
