"This restaurant/cantina is located in Calle Monte Albán #63, Letran Valle. CDMX 03650 This is one of the best restaurant of its type: Mexican food. It is a family oriented place, although beers and cocktails are served. The main especiality is "cabrito" (young goat). They also have all kind of meats: beef, pork, poultry, and fish. Their menu is very extensive. It is a good place to meet with family and friends. When we arrived the restaurant was partially full, but when we left there was a big line waiting for a table. It has a big outside area, a big saloon, and a private party room. Surrounded by many TV screens. The service was excellent and our waiter told us that this place is owned by a Mexican and Spanish couple. On their uniform they have the flags of Mexico and Spain."

"Excellent traditional bar, it has amazing food and classic cocktails. The service is superb, only outshined by the delicious food. Ask for the "cabrito", or "lengua al albañil", everything is delicious."
