Food
Excellent pizza, steaks, and diverse drinks. Raw chicken, overly sauced pizza, small portions, and vegetarian with meat sauce are notable issues.
Location
Prime central location next to cathedral, overlooking square. Scarce parking, but often staff-assisted or valet.
Service
Highly variable. Excellent, friendly, and fast staff (Yanira, Salvador, Ulises) noted. Frequent complaints: extremely slow service, forgotten orders, lack of basic items, raw food handling, inappropriate staff language.
Value for Money
Mixed. Good value and generous portions on some dishes, especially steak, with generally accessible prices. Pizza often pricey for small size, limited toppings.
Vibe
Lively atmosphere, live music weekends. Great vibes for family/friends. Comfortable, laid-back. Some music variety suggested.
