Tampa Tradition
One Dream. One Food Cart.
Twenty-Five Years of Tradition.
More than 30 years ago, Javier Giraldo arrived from Colombia with a dream of building a better future and sharing the authentic flavors of his homeland with Tampa.
What started as a small food cart serving late-night crowds eventually grew into the restaurant that has proudly called Armenia Avenue home for more than 25 years. Today, La Perrada Colombiana continues to welcome generations of families, friends, and food lovers who gather around authentic Colombian recipes made with passion and tradition.
Since 2001

I tried the churrasco, and it was absolutely amazing—super juicy and packed with flavor! 🔥 Easily one of the best steaks I've ever had. The service was outstanding as well. Laura was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended! 🇨🇴🥩✨
