🎶💜 Today we had some special visitors stop by El Colibrí! 💜🎶

We were excited to welcome the amazing members of Son Rompe Pera for lunch and a chance to catch up since we last saw them in Chicago last year.

Our connection goes back to their first visit to Pittsburgh for Pittonkatonk and they’ve continued to keep in touch and support us along the way. It’s always incredible to reconnect with people who share a passion for culture, community, and bringing people together through food and music.

Thank you for stopping by and for continuing to show us love over the years. We can’t wait to see where your journey takes you next!

¡Hasta la próxima! 🌵🩷🐦

As many of you know, El Colibrí is a small family-owned business, and we’re still growing our team while settling into our new home on Penn Avenue.

For now, we’ll be piloting these hours as we continue training staff, refining our systems, and making sure we can provide the best experience possible for every guest.

🕘You may notice we’re closed between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM. That time is dedicated to preparing for dinner service. Because so much of what we serve is made fresh daily, our team uses those hours to restock, prep ingredients, make aguas frescas, prepare masa, replenish menu items, and ensure everything is ready for the evening rush. We believe fresh food is worth the extra effort.

Our goal is to expand into weekend afternoon and evening hours as our team grows and operations become more sustainable.

Thank you for supporting our dream, showing us grace as we learn, and helping us build a space rooted in community, culture, and good food. Every visit makes a difference. ❤️

Seeing our story featured is a reminder that dreams built with community, family, and a whole lot of hard work can become reality.

What started as a family team sharing Mexican recipes has grown into El Colibrí — a space where everyone can gather around gluten-free Mexican food, vegan options, aguas frescas, and the flavors that connect us to home.

We are so grateful to every customer, market shopper, caterer, friend, family member, and supporter who believed in us along the way. This restaurant belongs to all of us.

Thank you for helping us turn a dream into a place.

¡Gracias Pittsburgh! ❤️🇲🇽
