"Excelente pollo al ajo. Recomiendo ir en un grupo de 3-4 personas, ya que es mucha cantidad. La orden incluye arroz, frijoles, guacamole, queso panela y totopos. El precio aumentó desde la última vez que fui. Ya con bebidas sin alcohol, pagué 900 y algo. La calidad de los totopos bajó. Antes eran hechos en casa y ahora parecen de bolsa del supermercado. Cerraron un área del restaurante (junto con su baño), y ahora los comensales están más apretados y con menos lugar (se hace fila de espera)."

"Me fascina el pollo a la cazuela, riquísimo! los frijoles y el arroz exquisito y las salsas muy sabrosas. El lugar es muy modesto, los precios elevados, pero vale la pena."

"Vale la pena ir ya que el sabor es muy bueno y los precios son algo elevados pero con muy buena calidad yo pedí cabrito que es para aproximadamente 3 personas o hasta 4 , porque te incluye un guacamole , queso y frijoles por 950 pesos, pero vale la pena"
