Visited for lunch one day as I'd walked past a few times and liked the name and the painted walls... I was after ceviche; they were out of the camarones I asked for (though this inspires confidence that what they do offer will be fresh and of reasonable quality) so I went for a mixto. This was ok but not outstanding and came with some slightly chewy chifles -- it tasted fine, but I must admit to having had better quality and larger portions elsewhere in town during my stay. This was just a once-off so who knows, other menu items might fare better!

This place had the best food that we could find in town.
The risotto was to die for.
We ate elsewhere but kept coming back every day, even if it was just for the ice cream!

This place was just a stroll from our hotel, so we decided to give it a go.

The food was quite good and the plate size was abundant. We had a plate of pasta bolognese and ceviche de pescado.

The pasta was actually quite good and very very tasty.

The ceviche was alright, not the best we had but it was good.

While this place doesn't have much ambiance, if you are looking for a budget place to eat with abundant and good food then this might work you.

Set menus are awesome. Eat there, and sit back, chuckling smugly and watching suckers that aren't eating delicious food walking by.
