Bodega 1205 Columbus GA - Latin American restaurant in Columbus - 19 12th St, USA

I really enjoy eating at Bodega 1205. The food is always fantastic! The service is friendly and attentive. If you happen to have the time to stop in for a bite, I recommend that you try the double espresso with your meal. I drink mine black, but they also offer you sugar. If you're a coffee lover like me, you will definitely not be disappointed. The meal that I love the most is the pernil. The pork is so tender and the flavor is amazing. Couple that with the arepas and you will be all set. Definitely give the bodega a try!!!

Enjoyed my first time at Bodega about a week ago. Amazing server, welcoming atmosphere, loved the decor and the music, plus my food was absolutely DELECTABLE! I had the omelet with peppers and onions and it was the absolute best I've ever had and that bread was perfect. Whoever made my meal truly used ALL the love they had within themselves to make it. I can't wait to return!

Simply amazing EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHED MY TONGUE!!! The only thing I added salt and pepper to was my avocado and tomatoes that I asked for on the side! CeCe was my server & shes absolutely amazing!!!!! The Chef Vanessa and her crew definitely know their stuff!!! I will be back!!!

The staff was very friendly.They had fresh juice, and we tried the carrot mixed with orange. For food, we ordered the plantain nachos with pork and one with chicken. It was amazing and filling. We also had the empanada sampler. They were good, but the guava cheese was the best. Be careful, though. The filling is hot!!

When I think about a bodega, I think about a corner store in NY summer time selling hero sandwiches, chips, candy, etc. So this was very different, a friend and I decided to head here for lunch and there was no wait time we sat down and ordered and I swear within two seconds after ordering our food was at the table (usually that would be a good thing) but it also made us wonder was it someone else's food that they didn't want . I expected more so far as flavor. The meat was overly seasoned, the rice was overcooked, the plantains were undercooked, and the salad, well, it was a salad, nothing to celebrate. The best thing about our experience was the mango lemonade. We definitely don't plan on returning because we are foodies and want to spend our money on GOOD food, but the atmosphere was nice just to sit and talk amongst friends.

Best brunch spot in Columbus. Food came out fast. Taste is amazing. Friendly/ family vibes as soon as you enter.

The omelet was good but some of the vegetables made it a lil soggy. It also could have had a little seasoning. I had it with chorizo and was surprised that it wasn’t seasoned too well. The bodega chip were like potato chips but they weren’t crispy, definitely not a fan. The plantains were the frozen kind for sure. Not bad, just isn’t special for me. The Cuban bread was the best part, buttered and toasted.

Bodega is such a cute little place!!! I had brunch with a friend here and it was so delicious and the coffee was really, really good!! 😋 The waiter was nice and accommodating, there is outside seating, they have Columbus artwork hanging on the walls - it’s just a very neat place. I loved it!
