Comida de buen sabor Justo me salio una mosca en la sopa del menú Pero ofrecieron un jugo por disculpas (se agradece) Mucho tiempo de espera para almorzar (mas de 1 hora) y sin mucha gente

Lugar amplio pero frío, me fije que habian estufas pero no estaban encendidas. Pedí costillar, me dio la impresión que quizas estaba recalentado, porque la carne estaba un poco dura y no pude terminar de comerlo, las papas estaban ricas, el pebre delicioso. Ojalá puedan mejorar esos detalles, por otro lado la señorita que nos atendio muy amable.

La atencion y salubridad son inexistentes. No es primera vez que asistimos al local y siempre lo mismo, un mesero que no sabe lo que hace, le pide permiso a un pie para poner el otro... llegas te sientas, 20 minutos y no te atienden, los individuales de las mesas pegajosos, esta última vez nos aburrimos y nos fuimos... No todo es malo, la comida es... buena 👍

Muy rica y buena porción de chorrillana! El Mesero del día sábado de jornada 20:00 pm muy amable.

La comida muy contundente quizas mas variedad en platos con carne a la parrilla no solo a la plancha ya que la carne a la parrilla era solo para las parrilladas. Dado que es al aire libre varias moscas solo poner algo para espantar o evitar. En cuanto al servicio bastante bueno. Quizas mas ambiente un poco mas de musica o algo.
