OUR STORY

About Caffe Colao

Bringing authentic Dominican and Puerto Rican flavors to your table since 2020. Every dish is a celebration of Caribbean culture and family tradition.

From Our Hearts to Your Table

Caffe Colao was born from a simple dream: to share the authentic flavors of the Caribbean with our community. Founded in 2020, we set out to create a place where every meal feels like a warm embrace from family.

Our roots run deep in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, where food is more than sustenance—it's love, tradition, and celebration all rolled into one. Every recipe we use has been passed down through generations, refined with care, and prepared with the same attention our grandmothers gave to their Sunday dinners.

When you dine with us, you're not just getting a meal. You're experiencing the warmth of Caribbean hospitality, the richness of island spices, and the comfort of home cooking that makes every bite feel like a hug.

"Our mission is simple: serve food so good, it brings you back to the table. Food made with love, just like grandma used to make."

Caribbean Cuisine, Done Right

We take pride in preserving the authentic flavors of Dominican and Puerto Rican cuisine. From our slow-roasted pernil to our perfectly seasoned mofongo, each dish honors the culinary traditions of the Caribbean islands.

Slow-Cooked to Perfection

Our meats are marinated overnight and slow-cooked for hours to achieve that fall-off-the-bone tenderness.

Authentic Seasonings

We use traditional Caribbean spices and seasonings imported directly from the islands.

No Shortcuts

Every component is made from scratch—from our sofrito to our rice and beans.
