    Experiencia total fue REGULAR, quizás no vuelvo teniendo opciones similares en la ciudad. * Alimentos BIEN, nada que me sorprendiera. * Servicio MAL, creo que les faltan meseros. * Precio elevado para el beneficio y valor recibido.

    Great food and great attention, very different menu. The dishes are inspired from food you get in the ranch in North Mexico. The chairs and couch are not comfortable, something to improve. Overall great dining experience and will definitely go back.

    El servicio deja mucho que desear, ya que es común tener que recordarles a los meseros los pedidos pendientes y revisar la cuenta, pues suelen incluir productos que fueron devueltos por errores de su parte. La calidad de la comida es promedio en relación con el precio, y su restaurante original, JONUCO, ofrece una experiencia superior. Un detalle a considerar es que el agua mineral que sirven es Peñafiel en lugar de Topochico, algo inesperado en un restaurante de cocina regional. Además, el proceso de reservación resulta algo invasivo, con múltiples contactos de seguimiento y la exigencia de un depósito previo. Como nota a los alimentos: La arrachera estuvo muy dura. El mesero incluso se la tuvo que llevar a filetear por los pésimos cuchillos que tienen. Es correcto, filetear una arrachera. Le echó la culpa a los cuchillos de las mesas, pero volvió tiempo después, porque también batalló.
