We had a magnificent experience at this wonderful restaurant! The service, cocktails, food and overall ambiance were all simply wonderful. Our waitress was extremely helpful in navigating the cocktail and food menu and her recommendations were all superb. We moved a bit out of our comfort zones and were glad we did. We highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!

Marcel was an awesome waiter! He was so friendly and helpful. Everything we got was so yummy. Fried cheese appetizer had a wonderful guava salsa that we literally licked clean. Cuban sandwich was like the ones I grew up eating in Miami! The pork mofongo was very flavorful. Arroz con pollo was excellent. All the food was fresh tasting and very good. Would definitely recommend. A little pricey for locals maybe, $100 for dinner for 4 and one person had an alcoholic drink, the rest had water. It was 👍🏻 great overall.
