"Conocimos el lugar por un reel, y es un acierto, arroz delicioso, habíamos buscado el típico arroz chino que venden en Colombia los chinos y este está buenísimo, comimos arroz paisa 100% recomendable tenía trozos de chicharron, pollo, platanito y un sabor , recomendado por la persona que nos atendió ya que también pedimos chuleta que viene con otro arroz igual de rico, la verdad fue mucho, pues son bastante abundantes, trae pasta fritas caseras y no nos pareció caro, tiene otras cosas a la venta, arepas, chorizo, pandebono. Algunas cosas son para pedir en domicilio así que preguntar bien y el pago es en efectivo lo anuncian en la caja. Hacen domicilios pero se paga aparte. Pagamos 35€ olvide la foto del ticket"
