Delicious food. Beautiful colonial interior. Everything was tasty- the pumpkin soup, the bread, salmon, potatoes and the apple strudel.

Excellent meal and the service provided by Felipe was outstanding. The steak was mouth watering. Highly recommended but make reservations if you plan on going after 19:00.

Amazing food! I had the scallops in white sauce as an app and the grilled beef tenderloin. There is no English menu but I studied beforehand via their online menu. Plus the friendly staff spoke perfect English. The decor is like something out of a museum. Very memorable experience.

I had visited this place many times for the last 3 years and I consider it one of the “must visit” in the area. Although the menu has a lot different options I highly recommend the “camarones Bloody Mary”.

A gem of a place with the most peaceful ambiance, artistic with classical music playing. Great service with bilingual servers. I had the scallops (Vieires Beure Blanc) and the Burrata salad because it was lunch. Both were amazing. A special little place! It was empty on a weekday at 1pm but I'd make a reservation for dinner.
