“ La comida muy buena. Los platos son contundentes y muy sabrosos. La atención espectacular, se nota la preocupación y es muy hogareño. El aroma es un poco fuerte y un poco feo pero siento que para la calidad de la comida no es tanto ”
“ Porciones demasiado pequeñas para el precio. Desorden en la atención. Un puñadito de papas fritas con un trozo de Reineta 10.500. No lo recomiendo ”
