"Es un buen lugar para una cita o reunión con amigos, el dj en vivo pone muy ameno el lugar, solo veo de inconveniente que es muy chiquito y a veces hay que esperar para poder tener mesa. Recomiendo las tlayudas y el mezcal."

"If you’re looking for a cozy, stylish place for brunch look no further ! The atmosphere is great the staff is so kind and the FOOD! And price you pay for it, is amazing! All breakfast comes with fresh juice, fruit and coffee. Also, On Fridays and Saturdays they have a tequila and mezcal night with live music.
