Our server was great would’ve been better if she could understand English a little bit, but I totally understand. We shared a meal and it was divided up perfectly on two different plates for us. I would definitely go back again.

Lunch begins at one, and all 4 of us were very pleased with our dishes. The large Che salad is really large, steaks were delicious and mixed grill fabulous. Service was excellent also; our waitress spoke good English.

Everything was delicious. The sangrias have been the best we’ve had in Huatulco - the right ratio of wine to juice so that it is not too sweet. The grilled bone marrow was a great appetizer. We got the Che Grill for one and the grilled ribeye. In hindsight the grill for one would have fed both of us. The potato with bacon cream is very tasty but the star side dish was the French fries. Crispy and airy and probably the best fries we’ve ever had! All of the meats were well flavoured and very tender. We ordered a traditional empanada (comes with grill plate) and they accidentally gave us the cheese and corn empanada. Our server was very kind and apologetic that if we didn’t like it they’d bring us another one but we didn’t need another as the corn and cheese was so delicious that we ordered six more empanadas to take home. The pastry is so delicate - some of the best empanadas we’ve had.

Amazing food and service was wonderful, the staff really enjoy their jobs and the cooks are so friendly!

Second time having dinner here and usually order the flank steak. Last night we decided to try the Double, a sampler platter for two people consisting of flank steak, short ribs, beef ribs, chorizo, Argentinian sausage and sweetbread surrounding delicious potatoes. Each bite was better than the last. Great presentation and the flavors were out of this world. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I can’t stop thinking about our meal! We loved how friendly the staff was, our waiter even helped entertain our little 11 month old. Started off our meal with a capresse and grill pear salads. Delicious!! I definitely recommend having one of the grill platters and sharing with a friend. Finished off the meal with a tiramisu. So rich and creamy!

Amazing steak and the burger was delicious. Great wine selection and interesting tiramisu. Never had it with cinnamon in place of coco power.

Great restaurant! Delicious food, tasty drinks, very friendly waiters, and fast service. We'll come back 100%
