//The line

Yelp reviewers advise arriving early for breakfast at Salento's Amsterdam Avenue location or risk standing in line, as the compact cafe fills quickly with regulars ordering Colombian staples like pan de bono and chicken-and-cheese buns (Yelp).

Some reviewers also point to a wait tied to slow service during rushes rather than door capacity, though they describe the coffee and food as worth it — a sign demand at the counter outpaces the small kitchen's output during peak hours (Yelp).
