“ Excellent food but a little pricey. I particularly enjoyed the Huevos Mortulados (I believe that is close.) Chocolate caliente is good... better than some US restaurant places as they seemed to use some milk. Wasn't ready for the piloncillo flavor which was a nice touch. A tip... ask for the bill, don't wait for your server to give it to you. ”
“ What a pleasant surprise finding this place. We got here without knowing what it was and oh boy, what an amazing oasis in the middle of a small town. Everything is tasty and well prepared, whatever you choose is the best choice. The service is beyond amazing, everybody is so nice and helpful. If you happen to be around here, making a stop to eat here is mandatory! ”
