This place is extremely amazing. It's a big old house and it's very vintage. I loved how the restaurant is presented to your eyes. On Saturdays us very calm. At first sight I wasn't sure to get in this place, because it is a little bit lonely. Once you enter, it's very beautiful. The food is delicious! You must try the typical food they serve here. At the time I. Posting this, they meals costs 80 mexican pesos. And also they serve sodas. About food, they have "lengua", "chile en relleno", "chanfaina", and caldo de pollo. I recommend you to try the meals when you can.

Great, full of flavor food, my best Chiapas discovery, these are hidden jewel that only locals know. Menu is limited with some egg and non egg breakfast options, the key is to order cheese, cream and beans. I learned after ordered that you can ask for combined plates, half one option, half second option. Will come again.

Great breakfast, the chicharon in green sauce was very good, the tortillas were not very good but I think it's a regional issue

Without a doubt a place where the food is delicious! The tongue stew is highly recommended. Although it is worth mentioning that the price of this dish is not cheap, since it costs 130.00 per dish plus your drinks and accessories. But it is a place worth going to for lunch with the family. The atmosphere is very calm and the waitresses are very friendly.
