    The restaurant was amazing. The food was great. Especially the appetizers. We had ceviche and foie gras. The foie gras was the best we ever had. We sat at the bar and the service was excellent even though the restaurant was very busy. The host was a little arrogant. We arrived early and he said they were booked except for the large tables and he wouldn’t seat two at a table for 4. Our reservation was for the bar, which was empty, so I asked why we couldn’t sit there. He responded, yes, any seat at the bar is fine. We sat at the end and ordered drinks. The host came over and rudely said we had to move because a regular customer was coming and she liked these seats. We didn’t mind moving but didn’t like his rude attitude.

    Dinner at Iguanas is always a great time. The setting is relaxed and open-air, but the highlight of the night was the service—truly top-notch and incredibly attentive. We started with the vegan meatballs and the sampler platter, both solid choices to kick off the meal. For mains, the mofongo stole the show. You can choose (if available)between yuca or plantain as the base. My mom had hers with steak, Elliott opted for the garlic shrimp, and both were flavorful and perfectly cooked. I went for the chicken chicharrones with a side salad—crispy, well-seasoned, and satisfying. Iguanas might be casual, but the food is thoughtful, and the service takes it to another level. A great spot for a laid-back dinner that delivers on flavor and hospitality.
