"La birria es DELICIOSA y las tortillas hechas a mano también. Tienen jugos, café y refrescos. El lugar es muy fresco sin importar el calor exterior. Tienen hornos al aire libre por si te interesa ver cómo se cocina la birria. También los precios son aceptables. Lo único que no me gustó fue el baño de hombres. El problema es que el mingitorio está demasiado cerca del inodoro. Ojalá que la próxima vez que los visite hayan tomado en cuenta mi comentario para mejorar esa parte de la experiencia. Tienen otro baño (el de mujeres) en el cual no pasa ese problema."

"Un lugar sobre la carretera, la comida bien servida, con un sabor tremendo. Además son pet friendly mi perrita disfruto mucho su quesabirria que por cierto son deliciosas, así como los tacos y el consomé. Siempre que viaje por el Pacífico, volveré ahí sin dudarlo. Eso sí, es un lugar modesto, a los sanitarios les hace falta mucho mantenimiento pero puedo soportarlo porque se come delicioso."
