Located next to the main cobblestone square of Tlalpan, this long-standing establishment combines high regional gastronomy with the constant activity of live acoustic songs. It occupies the upper part of a mansion, characterized by having wide corridors, wooden tables, and black chairs on a terrace where musical activity takes place under dim lighting overlooking the center of this borough.
Although its daytime reputation is based on traditionally prepared Yucatecan dishes, the place operates at night as a crowded stage for trova, pop ballads in Spanish, and bohemian-style guitar. Musical weekends regularly present local singers, and even organize complete themed nights that pay musical tributes to iconic figures of the Hispanic ballad and to great exponents of South American and Spanish singer-songwriter music.
The venue is a meeting point that convenes large families, adult couples, and neighbors from surrounding neighborhoods in the southern zone. The environment is deeply traditional, warm, and highly safe for long after-dinner talks. The sound level of the guitars allows groups to dine and converse without having to raise their voices while listening to the chords bouncing off the high walls of the mansion, accepting the entry of families with any relaxed or casual dress style.
Management suggests checking their schedule in advance on social media and reserving a table by phone to ensure a space during weekend nights, or particularly when special tributes are announced.
