La barbacoa está muy rica, se termina temprano así que aveces ya no encuentras de todo. Pedimos para llevar, lo malo es que te ponen bien poquita cebolla y como 5 mitades de limones. Pero el consomé es muy rico. El kilo cuesta $690 con hueso y $780 sin hueso y 2 órdenes de tortillas, por que NO LAS REGALAN, $35 cada orden.

Cómo hidalguense me es difícil encontrar una buena barbacoa en la Ciudad; sin embargo, este lugar hasta la fecha no me ha decepcionado. La barbacoa es rica, el consomé cumple y con pata le da un plus. Tomen en cuenta que si no piden tacos, las tortillas se cobran a parte. El café de olla es delicioso y les recomiendo ampliamente las conchas rellenas de nata. Les dejo precios al día de esta publicación (13 de julio de 2025). Precio por persona aproximado de $300 a $400.

Buena opción para comer barbacoa al norte de Lindavista, en Domingo hay mucha gente por lo cual la espera es de 15 a 30 minutos, pero el sabor vale la pena, el único problema es que solo aceptan efectivo. Recomiendo los tacos de costilla, muy buen sabor
