“Las tortas están deliciosas! La verdad superaron mi expectativa Llegué por casualidad trayendo mucha hambre y al no ver gente en el lugar y una foto en el menú de una torta sencilla, pensé que no estarían buenas pero el hambre me gano así que pedí. Oh sorpresa! Están riquísimas! La foto que ví no se compara con la realidad Además las personas son super amables 10/10 Este lugar merece estar lleno de clientes”
“The food was great. I got a torta de carne Asada and cheese fries. The older couple working the restaurant were real nice, the place was very clean, the food was made fresh on a clean flat right infront of you. The food itself was really good. Local spot with some chill food. Would definitely recommend”
