Good food and good service. Price considerably low, when you think about the location. A little more variety of food would make me give it a 5-star score.

Vale muito a pena. O cardápio possui muitas variedades. A parte de saladas é muito diversa também. É self-service mas não dá caro colocando um pouco de cada. O meu deu 35 reais e eu comi bastante (meio quilo). Ganhei um suco natural da fruta mesmo. O ambiente é decorado com quadros antigos. Tem música agradável tocando. É no coração do Espinheiro. As atendentes nos tratam muito bem.. eu amei e quero voltar sempre.
