“ As they say a hidden gem with high class service and quality food! We had carne en su jugo, crispy chicken milanesa and a few drinks, we definitely recommend all of it! Plus choco flan was really good! Definitely will be back! Two times so far, can’t wait for the third! - It’s been four times and thinking of the 5th! 1-13-2025 update ”
“ The Enchiladas de Mole, Tacos, Barbacoa with Mashed Potatoes and Choco Flan all had really great flavors. The flavors were balanced well. 4:30-5pm is a great time because service was fast, calm atmosphere, and very homey. If you are visiting, make this a spot to eat. You won’t be disappointed. Something extra about that Choco Flan, the chocolate cake melts in your mouth and the flan had great density. Thank you for a great experience. We will be back. ”
