Very nice meal. Well curated menu, sublime service, and a lovely outdoor atmosphere. Desserts were particularly nice. The only thing we didn't like were the number of street vendors that kept coming through the diners trying to sell us trinkets and fans.

Always a great meal with friendly service. You are paying for the location at any of the Parque resturants here. But this place is top notch.

Great place, great food, better service, the wife had a ribeye, I had arachera. If you go ask for Tito and you will get top notch service, if you like beer try a Patito Triple Stout. This place goes above & beyond to insure you have a great experience.

This place has such a nice and hip vive. We were treated exceptionally and the duck with mole sauce was out of this world. We actually went back a second time to try a different dish. I would go back again and eat their duck with mole for sure!

Went here the other night. The place was not busy and I got a table outside right away. The ambiance at night was peaceful with a nice chill view. The waitress was attentive and kind. I ordered the Osobuco and Chaya drink. Before my food arrived bread and sauces came to the table. I tried them all and they were great especially the oil. Not long after my main dish came (Osobuco) along with tortilla's.The meat was fall off the bone good and would recommend this dish. At the end of the night if you want a nice meal chill vibe with above average price tag then give this place a try
