Restaurant was on the smaller side, yet very comfortable. Food was good, both apps(calamari and elotes) were well prepared, presented nicely and tasted great. Entres (Seafood Scampi and Steak Frites) were both very tasty and a decent sized portion. Overall food was very good. Wine was good and reasonably priced.
