We went here for a early dinner! So it was nearly empty! But the waiter was apparently the owner and he gave us a lot of recommendations! Foods not to fancy. Just good home cooked meals like your grandma would give to you. And I think that's amazing! Service was quick and the vibes of this place are amazing! Will definitely come here again!!
We went there to watch traditional dance, and we ordered drinks and some snacks while watching. That evening, we had a musician entertainer who was very charming.
Even though we were there only to watch cueca, they are very hospitable. We were served with some tapas (we only ordered drinks). This place is must to go, if you want to experience the culture with locals. Many thanks!
