Well, the ambiance is charming, and the service was attentive. But the food was awful. I don't get the positive reviews unless they are based on the location alone. The bread they brought to the table was a day old and stale. We tried a number of things from the menu, including the vegetable soup (veggies cut up and simmered... More

The food was really incredible. Never had fish that tasted like lobster. The sauce with mushrooms and cheeze was soooo good. Cute little restaurant in Centro. Owners are French and Colombia. What a great fusion. Very relaxing and incredible choices especially of wines too! More

This is supposedly a French restaurant but you wouldn't immediately know it. We had ceviche which was not the best as it tasted as if it were in mayonnaise. However, the seafood casserole was delicious. The price was reasonable for Cartagena. The decoration is nice and service friendly. A nice place to have lunch on a hot day. More

We were advised to try this place and when we entered it first seemed very welcoming. But after we ordered then everything went downhill. The server had no clue what was in the food. She reacted badly to our questions. The food was not great by any standards. We had a complaint about the food and the manager dealt with... More

Everything we had at this restaurant was great...the appetizer (pate) was wonderful, the fish main course and the Greek inspired salad with chicken (with Greek potatoes, salad, chicken in pita and roasted tomatoes)...the service was excellent as well...will try to go back again before we leave!

OLL offers excellent French inspired seafood prepared with local ingredients. We ordered the robalo one night and the corvina the next--both of which were prepared beautifully. Also, after daysof trying to avoid raw vegetables, we broke down and ordered the zucchini carpaccio and fell in love with this light and flavorful dish. Desserts were also great as was the atmosphere. More

This week we treated ourselves to many of Cartagena's best restaurants, and Oh La La was by far the best. The menu makes creative use of local delicacies, the food is exceptionally well made, and the service is friendly (like most places in Cartagena) and timely (like few places in Cartagena). And, the price was about half of what other... More
