Una excelente opción para relajarte y pasarla agusto fuera de rutina. Todo es pura naturaleza. Tiene amplio estacionamiento, la música es agradable y la atención al cliente es insuperable.

No pensé que los encontraría aquí para poder dejar mi reseña... Soy amante de lugares así, paso muy a menudo por aquí y un día lo ví y llevaba tiempo diciendo quiero venir ... Pues me tarde ... Honestamente esperaba poco y mi sorpresa fue que cruzando el portón un lugar verdaderamente precioso, muchos animales cuidados ... Cuenta con estacionamiento, no me había fijado que era buffet , los precios considerables a mi criterio, la comida al menos la que yo probé riquísima,consomé de borrego, con tortillas recién echas, juguito de naranja y café uffff el café de olla exquisitamente delicioso acompañados de ese precioso lugar sin duda volveré . La atención del personal excelente .

A hidden gem on the side of the highway. I have come to this place 3 times already since I discovered it about 4 months ago. The place is clean, wide-open, and has a great atmosphere that really invokes the "Hacienda" they were going for. There are plenty of animals to feed around the property and these same animals are used to produce eggs, cheese, butter and more, all of which are made in-house and served at the buffet. The animals are kept separate but still within eyesight of the dining area so watching over your kids while you talk is relatively easy. The food is always warm and ready to be eaten at the buffet from 9 AM to 6 PM with a consistent quality and a friendly staff that is ready to solve problems and take care of you; they can even prepare things like eggs to your request. The place is also extremely cheap compared to some other places around the city without sacrificing the comfort and flavor of a homely restaurant. My personal favourite is the cheesecake, which they also make here.
