Very good place, but when we arrive at the table we are not informed of the time we have to leave, so we order more drinks and beverages, after that the waitress informs us that we have to leave the table in 20 minutes, already bringing the bill and informing us that we have to leave the table, without being able to finish eating our food and having our drink!! I do not recommend it
