The service was excellent, the ambiance is great, and all the food was incredible, except for the Mac And Cheese. The mac and cheese was just Kraft and was $4. We will be going back though because everything was exceptional, aside from the Mac and cheese.

Dear Jamie Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that you loved the service, ambiance, and most of the food. We truly appreciate your feedback about the mac and cheese—we always strive to offer the best experience, and your input helps us improve.

Estaba cerrado y no avisaron a pesar que el día anterior había llamado a confirmar que estaba abierto…. Es una pena que esa falta de compromiso con los clientes porq el restaurante es bueno pero ya no volveré por la falta de atención al cerrar sin avisar. Ese día fue difícil encontrar otro restaurante y terminé almorzando casi 5 pm…. No volveré!
ZerdoResponded on 1 February 2025
Estimado Juan, Lamentamos sinceramente que encontrara el restaurante cerrado sin previo aviso, especialmente después de haber confirmado su visita el día anterior. No fuimos notificados del cierre por parte de las autoridades, y lamentamos no haberle informado una vez que lo supimos. Entendemos las molestias que esto le causó y le pedimos disculpas por los inconvenientes. Esperamos que nos brinde una segunda oportunidad para demostrarle nuestro compromiso con la satisfacción de nuestros clientes.

I suggest creating more children's food options... The classic nuggets are so boring. The rest is great—amazing place and food!

Dear Diego Thank you so much for your wonderful review and suggestion! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience with us. Your feedback about adding more creative children's food options is greatly appreciated—we’ll definitely take it into consideration. Hope to see you again soon!

Pedimos panceta de entrada y muy parecida al chicharrón colombiano. El risotto que viene acompañado del lomo fino estuvo espectacular. El matahambre excelente también.
