La comida es muy rica, típico sazón casero 😋 Las señoras que atienden son muy lindas y amables, siempre están atentas y el servicio es muy rápido. Recomendable.

Es un lugar limpio con un sazón casero. La comida está bien servida en proporción, con agua ilimitada. No hay postre. Hay baño. Buen precio. Espacio amplio. Las señoras que atienden son amables. Lo recomiendo.

Bonita cocina de comida corrida, atendida con gran amabilidad por personas adultas mayores y con variedad de opciones incluso para dietas ligeras. Se llega a llenar, es recomendable ir con tiempo por si hay que esperar mesa.
