El Paisa

Rhode Island's first Colombian restaurant! Since 1978, El Paisa has served everyone, from locals craving their Colombian coffee in the morning to artists like Shakira who happen to remember a taste of home while on tour. Owners Donatila and César Zuleta have been serving their customers the same recipes for years, but what makes them stand out is their joy in creating an atmosphere that reminds people of home, wherever it is. With a little Colombian coffee and a lot of love, El Paisa is the perfect place for family and friends to find solace in the taste of Colombian comfort food.
