Pésima experiencia , un sándwich de 10.000 pesos malísimo , consomé asido lo devolví, las humas sin sabor a nada , pésima experiencia , empanadas duras y poco relleno , mala experiencia no lo recomiendo para nada , ni siquiera calentaron el pan , venía helado al igual que el champiñón , lo único que nos comimos fueron las papas fritas en bolsa que venden,

El mejor Mote con huesillo. Variedad de empanadas. De pino, de queso, de carne, de choclo y muchas mas. Para servir y para llevar. Una detención obligada para subir o bajar del cajón del Maipo

Hace mucho no venía porque mi última experiencia no fue buena. Hoy pasé y sigue siendo malo el lugar, empanada pasada a fritura y muy poco de queso bordes duros y sin relleno para los 4.000 que cobran aprox por ella. Son empanadas recalentadas que me imagino tienen congeladas. La cerveza bien porque no tiene mayor ciencia shop 5.000 aprox. No lo recomiendo para nada el lugar se ve a mal traer y no le ponen ni un poco de empeño para mejorar calidad de los productos.

Buena picada. Fuimos invitados a almorzar y nos gustó. Si bien a mi pareja no le dejaron la carne 3/4 y mi arroz sabía un poco pasado o extraño, regresaría a probar más platos. Ofrecen una carta amplia, el ambiente es acogedor y puedes quedarte en el interior o el patio. Se nota que las y los trabajadores crean un ambiente familiar entre ellos, se apoyan y se visualiza al atender.
