Went there yestarday . IT IS TEMPORARILY AND/ OR PERMANENTLY CLOSED !!
Comida ya no es buena, salada, cruda o refreida. Servicio nunca fue agradable. Pero la comida era de lo mejor. Parece cambiaron el cocinero. Pagas $70 u $80 por dos platos. Q mala experiencia.
Great food. However the time to open is incorrect. They open at 12:00 noon not as indicated in their google profile that indicates 11:00am. So i had to wait for 30min. after a 40min ride. Hopefully someone will correct this.
