La Mordida over in Clearwater serves both Colombian and Peruvian food. Usually, when a place tries to do two cuisines at once, it doesn't turn out that well. That's not the case here. This is easily my favorite Colombian spot since moving here from South Florida, and I've tried quite a few in the St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Pinellas county area.
I started off with some tequeños, and though they only came with three, they're huge and freshly baked. So good. I also had the tiger's milk ceviche, and that was phenomenal. For my main course, I had the Aji de Gallina--a chicken dish with a Peruvian cream sauce and shredded chicken. Oh my god, it was phenomenal. My colleague had the Bandeja Paisa, and I tried a bit of everything on that plate. It was fantastic as well.
To drink, I had a margarita and a cafe con leche. The margarita was large, strong, and very good, and the cafe con leche was also large and strong. The staff was super nice and accommodating. They even gave me a free dessert with my coffee, which was a great little surprise.
Overall, this place is great. It's big and spacious inside, the food is awesome, and it's a good time all around. I'm very picky when it comes to Colombian and Peruvian food, and this place nails it. You won't be disappointed!
