Excelente servicio, atención y alimentos. Había recibido recomendaciones de este restaurante sin embargo no había podido acudir. Hoy lo visité y la verdad todo está muy bien. El café, los alimentos, los jugos. En general todos los alimentos son preparados en el momento, frescos y limpios. El costo no es excesivo y su calidad muy buena.
