"Barbacoa hecha al hoyo en penca de maguey, súper rica. La quesadilla está bastante grande hecha con tortilla hecha a mano en comal de maíz amarillo, el queso parece que es tipo oaxaca, y te la sirven con mucho queso. El servicio es excelente, rápido sirven, muy atentos. El consomé trae garbanzo y papá, muy rico sabor. La salsa con rico sabor ligeramente picante (como mucho picante) que da ese sabor rico a la barbacoa. Parada obligatoria para desayunar rico."
