There were two of us at Jake’s last night for dinner. We started with a couple of appetizers and each of us had a margarita. Well, the appetizers were so fantastic that we just stuck with a variety of appetizers (6 total) all eve. I highly recommend the crab cake and mussels appetizers!! It doesn’t get better than these. Also, I want to mention that our our server was AMAZING. We are both gluten-free and he was so attentive to that requirement that he graciously went to the kitchen several times to ensure that all was GF. He even suggested ways to alter a dish to make it GF and then instructed the kitchen in ways to accommodate our needs. A very enjoyable evening!

The location is great; outside on the patio. It was Wednesday lunchtime so it was relatively quiet. There was a good mix of sun and shade. The service was terrific. The server was well versed on the menu and made some wonderful recommendations, when asked. He was very warm, friendly and considerate. The food was fresh and tasty. Two of us shared the Salt & Lime Salad with Shrimp, as well as the Cerviche Yucatan. Both were delicious. The shrimp was large and a decent amount. We shared the Lava Cake and the Churros for dessert. Good portions of all food. Delicious! Plan to come back and try other options.

It can get busy, best way to make sure you get a table is to make a reservation. Ordered a few things to try, Lomo Saltado, Macho, Beet Salad and a Ceviche Mixto. The ceviche was great probably a tad bit more salt and it would've been perfect Beet salad... Beets.. The Lomo was a tad salty for me but the meat was very tender and a good size portion of food. Macho was my favorite a good variety of seafood and lots of flavor.
