?‍❤️‍?‍??‍❤️‍?‍??‍❤️‍?‍?A secret place only we know?‍❤️‍?‍??‍❤️‍?‍??‍❤️‍?‍? -Complimentary bread & Jamica tostada: nice snack while we waited for the appetizers. -Duck tostada: I’ll keep this simple. GOOD! The missus hates duck, and even she thought it was delicious. -Garlic asparagus: Garlic, cheese, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, and asparagus fried perfectly. Often, the simplest dishes are the most enjoyable - this was a real treat! -Berry cream bean: Who knew something so simple as a slice of plantain, a slice of pork belly, and beans could be so great! The kicker? Corn chips added a crunchtastic touch to an already perfect soup. -Wild ?: I had rabbit once before, and it was extremely gamey so I was a bit skeptical. This time it was delightful – chewy but not a chore. I highly recommend this meal, because everything came together we’ll in this dish - from the potatoes to the sauce the rabbit swam in! -Atmosphere: The décor is beautiful. We went to celebrate my 35th, and I just say this is a great setting for birthdays, anniversaries, or date night!

Second best restaurant in San Cris after Restaurante Lum. The manager who we had a nice convo with in our broken Spanish is great. 1st visit: duck tostada, black cream soup, mole bass, the pumpkin castilla dessert, and the pox and pineapple cocktail. All excellent.

We were attracted by excellent reviews, but we found the quality of the food really disappointing. It was served very nicely but was basic and often even boring/ lacking in taste. Most streetfood in this amazing city would probably be better…

Thanks to Freddy, the chef and the staff for making my birthday memorable, food was great the place is gorgeous and the service was at point, thanks!!!

The duck tacos were incredible, the black cream soup was also excellent.

One of the best, if not the very best restaurant in San Cristobal de las Casas. Great place for special occasions. The taste and the presentation of the food are excellent. Mostly traditional Mexican dishes. There are several seating sections; we very much liked the patio with the fountain and the roof full of hanging plants. The atmosphere is super authentic and charming, with a slight modern twist. The service is excellent. We visited often when we were in San Cristobal.

Superb service. The food is great. My favorite is the grilled cheese asparagus. The black bean chorizo soup is a little thick so it didn’t do it for me. The chicken with potato carrot and guacamole was great, especially with the sweet sauce.
