NO PIDAS A DOMICILIO. 3 HORAS ESPERANDO LA COMIDA y no me contestaban, no llamaron. Y cuando lo hicieron se molestaron porque cancele el pedido.

Todo mal 😔
La penúltima vez que fui me gustaron muchísimo las carnitas, volví y literal todo estuvo mal, desde el pésimo servicio (tuvimos que pararnos literal por platos y tenedores) pedí un consomé y me llevaron una nata de grasa, y la senora que canta 😩no sé si a la mayoría les guste pero es super incómodo comer con ese ruido tan fuerte, las carnitas no sabían a nada y están súper chiclosas, y por último mencionar que sus extractores no funcionan y terminas saliendo con un pésimo olor penetrado en tu ropa, la verdad toda la experiencia fue muy desagradable
