"El lugar está excelente, la vista es increíble y el canto de los pajaritos hacen muy agradable la estancia De comer pedí un chamorro al horno y venia muy bien acompañado con frijoles, arroz, ensaladita, tortillas, salsa martajada y limones ... El sabor estaba exquisito, buen sazón, la carne bien impregnada del sabor y muy blandita. El agua de fresa se sentía muy fresca. Todo tenía un sabor muy rico, casero. Lugares como estos son a los que traigo a mi gente de fuera y quiere comer rico :'3"

"We lucked out by finding this restaurant on the way to Parque Mirador. We intended to eat at the park, but this place is WAY better and more scenic that the place at the park. Don't miss the park, because it is beautiful, but this is THE restaurant to eat at on the way."
