Amazing food and great atmosphere! The tacos are absolutely delicious and definitely one of my top recommendations. The place has a really nice vibe, and I also highly recommend coming on Thursdays for karaoke night — it’s a lot of fun.
Excellent service from all the staff, Melany was very friendly, attentive, and had a great attitude.
Now with the World Cup atmosphere, it’s an even better spot to enjoy live matches with good food, drinks and Cubetazo, and a great crowd. Perfect place to watch the games and have a great time.
Highly recommended!
