Me gustó mucho el lugar, la terraza tiene un clima cálido y una vista acogedora, tienen una carta variada y el servicio es rápido así el lugar esté lleno. Los chuzos de carne de res son exquisitos, la carne es magra y suave, la textura es jugosa y tierna, además, viene acompañado de limón, arepa y tomate sin cáscara lo cual me parece una atención al detalle de lo mejor.

El sitio tiene una vista muy chevere, es acogedor, la oferta de comida es deliciosa, es muy chevere que al lado tiene una BBC, y se puede pedir de los dos sitios. Hay baños en el sótano, muy aseado y con todos los implementos necesarios. El plato de la foto es una picada para dos, estaba riquísima, pero de pronto es un poco pequeña para personas que coman mucho, sin embargo es una buena opción, la pueden completar con unas empanadas, jaja
