    As a restaurant manager myself, I tend to scrutinize dining experiences with the precision of a food critic and the paranoia of a health inspector. That said… this place knocked it out of the park! The food? Unreal. The service? Impeccable. The atmosphere? A perfect blend of lively and cozy. Let’s talk about the seafood paella—so good it could make a grown man cry. The crispy calamari? Hands down, the best I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a lot). The meat and cheese board was a masterpiece, setting the stage for the grand finale: the Brisket Montaditos—little bites of pure flavor explosion. Every dish had me questioning why I don’t eat here daily. Our server, Ashley, was a rockstar—attentive, friendly, and somehow always there before we even realized we needed something. She kept our table pristine like she was setting up for a Michelin-star review. And let’s not forget Oliver, the manager, who clearly runs a tight ship. He and his team are absolutely killing it. Perfect spot for date night, impressing friends, or just treating yourself to a culinary adventure. I’ll definitely be back—and probably ordering everything on the menu again.

    Great food. Service was off only because of it being VDay weekend. Would definitely comeback when it’s less busy. 5:45 reservation didn’t get food until 7. Servers were overwhelmed but tried their best.

    My dining experience was Excellent. The ambience is sexy. The service was top notch. The Jollof Rice dish is a winner. One of my favorite restaurants. Drinks with appetizer and main course for 2 will be, at least, $100. Fantastic Value!!
