We got there very early (5:30) on a Wednesday. We decided to have a drink at the bar for happy hour before sitting at our table. We had so much fun trying drinks and ordering appetizers at the bar that we never sat at our table. We ended up staying for a bit of the Flamenco band that started around 7:30. Great place, highly recommend.

We were told to go there by my brother in law the next time we were visiting Miami. Well the 38 minute drive was 1000% worth it. Don’t even think about going, just get in your car and drive to this place. You won’t regret it, I promise! We ordered the peanut butter and blueberry/lemon pancakes! Both ridiculous! Shoutout to Olivia for exceptional service (good luck with your studies ;-) and to Wakim (the owner) who came to chat and say hi! 12/10!
