Amazing food, drinks, atmosphere and prices! They make an amazing Carajillo, the Choripan “burger” was delicious. They have hot chocolate brownies with ice cream on the menu (which every restaurant should have!) and their pancakes for desert were a good portion, delicious, and only 70 pesos?! We will be coming back soon to try their meats (as it is Argentinian / Mexican we have to!). Amazing spot
