Qué puedo decir de la sazón de Pily: excelentes platos cocinados a diario, enormes porciones a excelente precio. La atención es personalísima, el local es lindo, con opción de pedir y llevar su comida. Rico café y no se pierda los postres caseros colombianos. Muy recomendado!

La comida es rica, atención muy amable, el precio no es alto, el único problema que no está disponible cuando uno llega, salen las arepas ciertos días de la semana y hay que encargar. El cancelazo muy rico también, ideal para los días fríos de invierno.
