"Excelente lugar y muy bonito para hacer baby,shower"

"El lugar en si es muy bonito y la comida deliciosa, el problema es que tienen demasiadas mesas y el personal tanto de meseros como de cocina no se da abasto, necesitan aumentar el personal o disminuir el número de mesas disponibles para poder tener un mejor control y dar un mejor servicio. Si vas a ir ten en cuenta que vas a tener que esperar bastante por lo que pidas, además de que se batalla un poco por el estacionamiento"

"Este lugar tiene mucho potencial, desafortunadamente su ubicación le desfavorece, pero el sabor de sus platillos es de lo más sabroso que he probado, el menú tiene comida mexicana y mariscos por lo que, igual te comes unas enchiladas y tostadas de ceviche. Sus precios son muy competitivos y las porciones generosas si buscas sabroso, mucho y barato está es la mejor opción."

"El lugar es agradable, abierto. Ideal para ir en familia y los niños la pasan bien en el brincolín. Los platillos están sabrosos y en porciones bien servidas. Creo que podrían mejorar el sabor del café americano hay varias marcas en la zona que podrían favorecerles en ofrecer uno con más sabor y aroma."

"Lindo lugar, buen desayuno con tortillas a mano. Yo pedí el omelet vegetariano, estuvo bien, me gustó que tuvieran la opción solo de claras y me dieron a elegir frijoles de la olla porque los refritos están en manteca. La salsa que lo acompaña rica, no muy picosa. El otro platillo fueron hot cakes con huevo, buena combinación y pocos lugares en Tepic los ofrecen, eso me gustó. Como recomendación esperaba que los platillo fueran mejor servidos. Un punto a favor es que tiene precios económicos y una carta de jugos especiales espectaculares, nosotros probamos el antigripal."

"Le puse 4 estrellas porque la comida es deliciosa, la variedad aunque no muy extensa es exquisita, el precio es más que accesible y el lugar es agradable. El servicio deja mucho que desear, la actitud de los meseros no es la mejor, es como si estuvieran obligados a estar ahí, es mucho personal y no están bien organizados, no saben o no guardan su orden (comanda) y cuando llegan con los alimento aún siendo no más de 4 personas en todo el lugar te preguntan si es lo que habías ordenado, se la pasan caminando de aquí para allá platicando entre ellos y no tienen la precaución de establecer los lazos necesarios con el cliente, si usted come ahí, no se desespere, la comida tarda en llegar porque la masa y los guisos son frescos y vale la pena la espera, solo haga de cuenta que no tiene quien le atienda, por lo demás todo muy bien, ah hay un brincolín y juegos para niños, lo que le garantiza un ambiente familiar."
