Bartender TIPS Certification Program

All our bartenders must be TIPS certified in order to work at Bogota Bistro. What is TIPS Certification? The TIPS (Training for Intervention ProcedureS) programs teach servers, sellers and consumers of alcohol to prevent intoxication, drunk driving and underage drinking.

Inspirations

Inspiration for how we want our restaurant to look and feel comes from many places and can happen at any time. In this case, it comes from a Cuban restaurant found in Jackson Heights called Rincon Criollo. Rincon Criollo consistently ranks high on people's favorite Cuban restaurant list on Chowhound. We love this old style cafeteria menu on the wall with the white bubble letters. Very funky and old school.
