On August 6, 2025, my girlfriend and I went to this bar, and we were shocked by the service—completely unacceptable. We ordered two beers, and they brought us two cans. But the outrageous thing was that both of the glasses they brought were completely dirty! My girlfriend's were even more so! Honestly, I can't explain this fact to this day. They tried to explain it with the label, which supposedly was due to glue, but that, again, doesn't hold water. They had to clean them! I've been exploring the world, and I've seen this for the first time in my life! Also, the glasses were bottles cut in half.

Big plus: Vegetarian and vegan options available, which is hard to come...

My bill totaled to over 10,000 CUP or $30 for a mojito and an entree. I didn’t catch it until I got back to me Airbnb and my host told me that it was too much since mojito normally cost $3 or 900 CUP. By then it was too late for me. Check your bill!! Mojito is great but it comes at a hefty price. Check other reviews, this happened often at this restaurant. You are hurting your own business by scamming...
