We were very hungry because we hadn't had breakfast so we looked for something quick and delicious, we found these drowned cakes and I can say that they are the best in Queretaro. Very friendly and quick to assist us, plus the prices are super good. The delicious spicy sauce and the quality of the meat is top-notch. You definitely have to go try them. Thank you.

Very good place. The food is very delicious and the staff is very friendly!

Pretty good tortas ahogadas. Fast service.

The best drowned cakes in Queretaro, excellent Service

very good service, highly recommended, the best drowned cakes I have ever tried

Deliii, it was the only place that was open on a Sunday in that area, but the service, the food was very good, as well as the portions and if you bring your dog they let you in, obviously we stayed in a place where we wouldn't bother the diners but I really liked it!

Excellent place, the cakes are delicious. The hot sauce is one of the best I've ever tried, it's very spicy but it's delicious. The drowned tacos are also highly recommended, exquisite flavor and quality!! at a very good price
