    We had a very nice lunch after walking around the pyramids. I made a reservation for 8 about a week in advance. It was easy to check in, we were seated on time, and the drinks and food were quite good. Slightly expensive (in comparison to other restaurants in CDMX) but it makes sense because of the ambience and location. Really enjoyed the prickly pear mezcalita and the flank steak. Nice experience, would recommend.

    El lugar es muy bonito, el staff es amable, sin embargo los alimentos algunos llegaron muy rápido a la mesa y los otros fueron 30 min después, lo que ocasionó es que unas personas de la mesa comieron y terminaron, mientras los otras seguían esperando los alimentos. El sabor de los alimentos es bueno en la mayoría de ellos pero nada especial, algunos si les falta sazón. Los precios creo están bien porque las porciones son de buen tamaño.

    The place is beautiful and the staff are great but the food lacked in flavour and our fajitas came well after everyone else was finished their lunches.

    La comida deliciosa y el lugar es mágico. Totalmente recomendado. Es importante tener en cuenta que los desayunos terminan a las 11:00 am. En las mañanas hace un poco de frío, así que hay que ir abrigado. Seguro volveré.

    It was a beautiful location- reservations were respected however the waiter took 20 minutes just to bring us the dessert menu after asking for it, then took another 15 minutes to ask us for our order. Followed by us asking for the check, we also waited 20+ minutes for the check to be brought, I had to get up and ask one of the waiters myself. The service was not that great honestly considering its reputation. I really expected more from the staff. The food was basic- the barbacoa seemed to be a popular dish but it was very bland, I was shocked to see that they only brought out the meat with no sides. Their beer selection was small (only had 3 options) and the other plates seemed to be good according to my family that went with me.
