We had a way more food than what’s in the picture but we got too busy eating I forgot to take pictures. From guacamole to tacos to smoothies, everything tasted great! The person who helped us was amazingly patient with us (oh our ever work-in-progress Spanish!!) and took a great care of us. Would love to go back for more in the morning for breakfast as they are open 24hrs(!!!!) but we might have eaten enough for the next few meals...

If you're really hungry and want a taco but find it to small for your appetite, then order a Quekas and get a combo. It's a huge version of a tacos with a lot of meat and cheese! You won't regret it!

Nice place and the food tastes good. It's not too expensive but it also isn't cheap. What I liked the most is the variety of juices and milkshakes, there's a lot of fruits to choose from or to combine. The food tastes good and you can order the quesadillas and sandwiches and the like however you want to. The quesadillas are very big and they have a lot of meat inside so I suggest you share one between two people lol

Food was good and a decent portion size for the price but not huge, and took quite some time to be served. The oreo frappé we got was mostly ice but oh well. The music was also very loud.
