An above average Chinese food restaurant, in a large high ceilings dining room with plenty of plants. Quality and service are good. It is not Chinse food as in mainland China, but rather an American recreation. Flavors are very tasty, often spicy, more Hunan and Shezuan than Vantonese, thus it appeals to the Mexican apetite.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Cantina decoration to its smallest detail is great, makes you feel like you're traveling in time. This is somewhat what a low income bar used to look like, along with the pop sport then, box fighting. No, with great staff and affordable prices, this is a must-visit place if you're touring around San Angel. Be there early, gets full pretty fast
