Food: Dishes that may impress the untrained tongue

Duck Carnitas steals the show, often likened to top chef-quality, while the Egg Benedict impresses with its poached eggs and a truly incredible sauce. However, the menu lacks creativity and variety, leaving guests to ponder if the higher prices justify the experience.

  • Okay Taste

    Some found food to be average, decent, others enjoyed it without specifics.

  • Small Portions

    Portion size was tiny, detracting from the overall dining experience.
