This restaurant is relatively new; Now that another business group is managing it, the changes for the better are noticeable. The service went from expected to surprising; The food is served faster and now hot . It is spacious, beautiful and clean; It is located above the Plaza Oriente parking lot and on one side is Parque Tezontle. Be careful at 10 in the morning it is already full for breakfast service. Parking space left over (paid). And even if they are cousins, they do take each other to VIPS on the street.

A fairly quiet place to dine. I really liked the chilaquesos, although the habanero sauce is not as spicy as I expected :( The churros were very delicious and so was the pot coffee. Very happy with my visit.

The Christmas dishes are delicious, the enchiladas were good, and the cocktails were excellent. They definitely have good service. The bathrooms are clean. The staff is very friendly. I didn't know they offered complimentary parking. I'd like to know if they have a branch in Puerto Escondido, so I can go there for New Year's Eve dinner. I highly recommend it.

I had very low expectations, however, I was surprised by the richness of the options at Maravillas Culinarias. The mole enchiladas were delicious and the Motulenos eggs were a gem. I completely change my opinion.

After its last renovation, it was beautiful and I can say it feels a different atmosphere. The service has been excellent the last 3 times I have been. The extra requests I have made have still been kindly attended to and well, the star of the dinners twice now was the chiles en nogada. What a delight!!! The flutes too, but the drowned ones. Reco for non-heavy dessert: Mini churritos or normal churros. There are 4.
