El Gran Bamboo serves Colombian food from a West Kendall space that shares a wall with the Kendall Ice Arena, which means a meal here sometimes comes with a view of skaters practicing jumps through the glass. The kitchen turns out beef and cheese empanadas, ajiaco, and bandeja paisa, and the dining room doubles as a gathering spot for Colombian soccer fans watching matches on a big screen.
On weekends, the restaurant shifts into a livelier mode, with mariachi performances, DJs, and LED foam sticks turning the room into a party.
