Vinimos a las 6 de la tarde y tenían un rico menú! Por $7000 incluía fondo abundante y delicioso (pedimos pechuga de pollo en salsa de champiñones con puré y pastel de papa), ensalada surtida fresca, vaso de bebida, pancito caliente y con salsas para untar. También incluía postre, pero como habíamos quedado muy bien con las porciones, lo rechazamos y nos ofrecieron té o café. Se recomienda muchísimo. Atienden de 10am a 8pm, tienen desayunos, menús y otras cosas ricas. No sé lo pierdan, es una excelente opción para comer en Lautaro junto a la plaza Jorge Teiller.

Lugar pequeño, 5 mesas. Confunde al decir “café”, ya que también venden churrascos, completos, pailas de huevo, lazaña, guatitas, otros. El lugar es Bueno y Barato. La comida rica. Hay un par de estacionamientos justo fuera del local. Hay baños.
