About the restaurant

Bistró Sin Fronteras.
Les comparto los sabores que he recolectado del océano, el valle y la granja. Combinaciones que te harán viajar a rincones del mundo sin moverte de la mesa, desde delicias del mar con los mariscos más espectaculares, pastas hechas al momento con la frescura que mereces, los sabores propios de la granja, con los cortes más jugosos y exquisitos.

Excellent table service, excellent cuisine and excellent drinks! Great place for an upscale lunch/dinner with friends or a date. This is NOT a tourist attraction, so please dress business casual.
