“ The service is impeccable. The food is absolutely delicious. I had the Caracol en vino blanco (snail in white wine). What an esquisite taste. I wasn't expecting the smoothness of snail. The White wine delicately gave it a kick. For dessert try the queso Napolitano (Napoleon cheese cake). It is a combination of American cheese cake and flan, but not too sweet. There is a sanitizing station when you enter the restaurant observing the mandated pandemic screening. First you step on a black mat to clean your shoes, then your hands are squirted with hand sanitizer and finally your temperature is taken. The music in there is a blend of reggaeton and cumbia. The decor is first class with linen napkins. Yet, the price was moderate. . Not bad at all. ”
