    Food is always fantastic. I have been to Fauna several times and notice that they almost always serve braised lamb. Wish they would serve more of the steaks such as rib eye or New York. Value is great because there is no way you can experience this level of experience and food in the states. Also, wish we would have gotten some greens. The pairing of the wines with food needs to change the Bruma wine is not the best.

    Grandes vinos y excelente comida. Solo mesas comunales y es ruidoso, para grupos grandes es ideal.

    Such a wonderful experience!! The food was delicious and innovative and the service was fantastic! We had several allergies and it was handled beautifully. We had the chef’s tasting menu and a bottle of wine which was recommended by the sommelier and it was spot on. Such a memorable night!!

    La comida y el servicio inmejorables, probamos el Caracol, la Lubina y el Salpicón de Cerdo y nos encantaron. Las porciones son vastas. Probamos dos cocteles con mezcal y también fueron una gran elección. El lugar hermoso, está cerrado por lo que no sufres de frío si vienes a finales de octubre. Sin duda regresaríamos, 1000% recomendable!
