The restaurant is among some other stores in a nice part of town. Great selection of cerveca. Waiters are very helpful wnen able to communicate in English. The food was great. I was the least impressed by the bistec taco, the pork pastor “ginja” was incredible and so was the beed “closed taco with cheese”. The price is ok, not very cheap for what it is ; 25 US$ a person for a filling meal. Worth the hype.
