The food was terrific got the chicken in cream and empanadas. Lots of food and for a reasonable price. Only issue was the menu prices were hard to read and needed some clarification but definitely recommend
July 2025
Very good service. Love your food dishes with the correct temperature and presentation. quality ..apart from helpful attention ..only on some occasions I find some that serve as bad for getting out of the commitment ..I would ask that they maintain the temperament of kindness regardless of their personal problems or some problem with kitchen to serve ..nothing more than that ..but in general I give 8.5
February 2025
This is a great place, 10/10 I have been there 5 times and the experience has been great every single time. I don’t really understand why people don’t get the same experience as me. Highly recommend their breakfast.
