It was all in Spanish, so the server told us what was available. We were there around 2 and they close at 3, so some things were sold out. We had a roast pork dinner. The amounts served of each item were very generous and it was absolutely delicious! We ate in, and when we went to pay the women were dancing in the kitchen area so my husband started dancing. We all laughed. Overall a wonderful experience!“
