This is sort of a high end restaurant with very good traditional food. Very cozy, the waiters are beyond attentive.

Place is nice, quiet and clean, perfect for a lunch or dinner when visiting Merida. Local food only, prices are kinda high but taste is great, and portion sizes are situable for share or big meals. Our waiter was kind and proactively explained the difference and features of several items on the menu. I enjoyed eating here. It is obviously for tourists but don't feel like that in any way.
