    La arquitectura del lugar está imperdible. El servicio es muy bueno y la comida ni se diga. Parada obligatoria si te gusta experimentar la alta cocina.

    Une adresse qui confirme sa belle réputation. Trois visites en une semaine témoignent de notre engouement pour cette table qui sait allier raffinement et créativité sans ostentation. La chef propose une cuisine précise où la subtilité des saveurs se conjugue à quelques audaces bien maîtrisées. Son approche, à la fois respectueuse du produit et ouverte aux influences contemporaines, offre une expérience gustative sincère et mémorable. La constance de l'exécution mérite d'être soulignée – qualité rare dans le milieu de la restauration. Un établissement qui s'inscrit avec légitimité dans le cercle des tables de référence, et qui justifie pleinement qu'on y retourne

    Platillos planos, las salas están exageradamente perfumadas lo cual afecta el sabor de los alimentos. Servicio muy lento y precios elevados, para la mala calidad en general

    Joya Culinaria à Mérida : Une Expérience Gastronomique Exceptionnelle Niché au cœur de Mérida, ce restaurant s'impose comme une véritable révélation gastronomique Nous y sommes retournés à deux reprises tant l'expérience nous a enchantés, séduits par la cuisine mais aussi par l'atmosphère singulière des lieux. Ce qui distingue cet établissement est sa capacité à élever la cuisine mexicaine traditionnelle à un niveau d'excellence mondiale. Plus besoin de se rendre jusqu'à Mexico pour découvrir une table de classe internationale - Mérida abrite désormais ce joyau culinaire qui marie avec brio créativité et produits locaux du Yucatán. La chef démontre un talent remarquable pour surprendre ses convives, jouant avec les attentes pour mieux les transcender. Chaque plat raconte une histoire, révèle un aspect inattendu de la riche palette gastronomique mexicaine. À recommander sans hésitation pour cette cuisine qui célèbre le terroir yucatèque avec une sensibilité contemporaine.

    El lugar es espectacular; pero muy pretensioso; el valor mayor es el edificio, con extraordinarios detalles, la terraza con bonita vista, buen servicio, la comida bien, el precio, el lugar y la experiencia merecerían mucho mejor menú, la atención bien, pero reitero, algo pretensiosa; sin duda vale la pena ir, pero habrá que mejorar algunas cosas para regresar
