This restaurat is near the historic the Center of Bogota, barrio 'la Macarena' Like the name suggest: the place is packed with old toys and gives is a kind of Alice in Wonderland look. However, since it is a restaurant let's talk about food. This is a meat restaurant where vegetables are just decoration. Served of a stone or iron... More

This place has to be seen to be believed. It is decorated with a collection of old toys and carnival paraphenalia from the floor to the rafters.... and the steaks are good! The menu is simple but good and well presented.Tables were set with party hats and sweets, as in a kids birthday, for groups celebrating together.

I've been here twice and have never been impressed with the food. The concept of the restaurant is inventive, but it disappoints once you taste the food and drinks. The coconut lemonade I ordered was without flavor and the chicken was a little dry. There are so many other great spots to eat in la Macarena, why come here?

I ate a churrasco which I ordered medium and was brought to me well done. It had a good taste but was over cooked for my taste. The decoration was, how do I say it, different in a creepy but interesting way. I passed by it, went in and the next day just had to eat there to experience the... More

The staff and food were good but the place was full of creepy toys including dozens of naked, "Chucky" type dolls on the ceilings. The place felt ripe for some voodoo. I wouldn't go back.

A very nice place with a unique decor, good service and a very good "lomo al trapo". Reasonable prices for spending a pleasant time. This in a traditional neighborhood (La Macarena) of Bogota, known for its restaurants and nightlife.
