"Came here on a very busy Saturday with my family while visiting utrecht. The service was wonderful and the waitress was very friendly and spoke fluent English. Very attentive.
I got the pork tacos and my dad got the beef burrito and tequila shots with beer. Everything was wonderful, 100% recommend."
