“ It is a great place to sit in, and feel amazing. Alejandro (owner) is very friendly and welcoming. Helped us, to pick dishes and aswered all enquiries. Restaurant is very neat, and nice not overwhelming musing is playing in the background. All dishes were nice spiced up, no need for any salt or pepper. We were lucky to try "calabaza gratina con caatalaa por los muertos". Which was local stuffed pumpkin. Delish! With the check we received a unexpected lovely shot! Could not recommend more! ”
