Definitivamente que la solitaria fachada no le hace nada de justicia al interior agradable y con un ambiente familiar digno de una sobremesa cálida y sabrosa por ese menú digno de cualquier visita, el escaso personal que atiende es demasiado paciente y atento, las vacaciones o el pasar el rato en Huejotzingo no es lo mismo sin comer aquí, cierran a las 6 PM
