C'est une très bonne adresse que je recommande sans hésiter. Le restaurant est cosy & chaleureux, le service est soigné & accueillant, & les tacos sont vraiment délicieux, j'ai adoré & je reviendrai avec plaisir. Maria est également très gentille & accueillante : elle nous a fait visiter la salle à l'étage réservée aux événements & a répondu à toutes nos questions avec beaucoup de bienveillance & de professionnalisme🥰
