- OTOpenTable DinerVIPIndiana •25 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoAmazing ! Unique atmosphere, truly an experience. Our waiter Luis was attentive, made recommendations and provided excellent service. Our only issue was my medium well beef tenderloin was undercooked. They did take it back to the kitchen, however for me it was too rare. Others in my family will eat will eat a medium piece of meat. Popcorn shrimp. Lobster with pasta, truffle mashed potatoes , burrata salad and carrot cake did not disappoint.More infoLa MadalenaPrice: Very Expensive• Mexican• Cancún•4.7
