Cute spot, fair food, great service. They could use some wine instruction (the last tiny bit with the lees... Don't pour that into someone's cup, ruined half a glass.).
The caprese (rant incoming, this is my favorite food on the planet) is typical low quality part skim, flavorless tomatoes (we're out of tomato season), canned black olives (which shouldn't be on anything ever, but definitely not on caprese), etc... Its so simple to get right, but so few places do. Fresh seasonal sweet tomatoes, if you can't get them, take it off the menu. Excellent mozzarella, that you make (it's trivially easy) or get locally, torn fresh basil. Sea salt. High quality olive oil. No balsamic (which is always condiment grade garbage anyway), no olives, etc... It's such a simple dish.
Let's see. The queso fundito with mushrooms was pretty tasty, but cooled down a bit too much so that it was almost a solid block rather than melty.
Tortillas a house made and tasty
Salsas are numerous and has hits and misses. Nothing spicy at all, which was surprising.
Will come back for entrees and re-review. It has potential, the servers are lovely, the place is cute. They just need to pay more attention to using only high quality ingredients, researching caprese, and wine service. A few local craft beers would be a nice...

The English menu has higher prices than the menu they gave the Spanish speakers!!!
When we made them aware of this they started laughing. The manager then came over and took our Spanish menu and gave us a different Spanish menu not realizing I had already taken pictures of the 2 menus.
This restaurant can't be trusted we had to ask over 10x for the bill for our drinks to leave.
When I asked how much the tea and the soda was I was told 45 and 45 pesos. However the menu said it was 40 pesos for the tea.and had no price for the soda.. DNT eat here unless you are willing to be extorted for your money.
We paid the bill the waitress then asked us if we were going to leave her a tip (propina) we absolutely would never tip somebody that was trying to rip us off and that we had to ask 10 times for our bill for. We left and went to an American restaurant called Prime that's about a 7-minute walk down the road.
I attached both menus that I was given with two different...
Read moreGood starters, got full just with them. Ordered a Macallan 18 and arrived with lots of little specs of different colored debris, the nice waiter offered to take it back. About 10 minutes later someone that seems to be in charge brings the same drink,(but of course they strained it) and tells me that the server told him about the debris in it and tries to show me that it was from the "bottle's cork", and...
