Un lugar super agradable con comida y bebidas de calidad. Cuenta con musica en vivo, y una pista de baile amplia. Se diferencia mucho de otros lugares similares. Cumple con todos los protocolos de bioseguridad. Se puede pedir canciones y saludos al grupo que toca.

Me encanto agradable ambiente buena musica un lugar para divertirse cuando visites Huancayo música en vivo y variada precios razonables lo mejor entrada libre... Recomendado 100%!!!!

Fabrizzio Barragán

Los grupos que se presentaron tocaban bien, el problema que presenta el local es el volumen de la música ya que usan equipos de sonido que son utilizados en exteriores y no para interiores y esto hace que no se pueda ni conversar bien, ya que el ruido es fuerte y no te deja conversar. Me pareció excesivo el precio de las bebidas ya que no son muy buenas.

Guisela Castillo

Excelente lugar para disfrutar de música latinoamericana en vivo, de bailes tradicionales. Ofrece un variedad de bebidas y piqueos. Los fines de semana se paga entrada, el resto de días es ingreso libre. Es limpio y acogedor el lugar, con decoración rústica, posee además pista de baile

Jesus Antonio Cardenas Aguado

Un buen lugar para compartir con los amigos, conocer y disfrutar de bailes típicos de la sierra peruana y latinoamericana, y disfrutar de tragos típicos de la región.
