    It’s a funny little place and, if you eat there early in the evening, you can face a garden full of screaming kids, but later on, and largely indoors, it’s very cool. Fabulous service, by a group of charismatic guys, great soundtrack, and the sound of laughter permeating the cracked walls… Food is better than okay: beef tacos very good, the cheese croquettes moreish, but the jewel in the crown, IMHO, are the lamb quesobirria with the lamb jus dipping sauce!

    Honestly , the food was surprisingly good. It’s a great feeling walking into a humble, charismatic place that then delivers really amazing food and flavor . I love that everything is made on an open fire , that smokiness is everything! 10/10
