We had an amazing night. Went to celebrate my friends and my birthday. The food was so good and so were the drinks. Had a great time and left without a voice.

unfortunately, while enjoying last night my family and I went through one of the worst treatments we have ever been through in the entire United States, I made a reservation for 8 people, and we were there from 8pm enjoying their food, we ordered buckets of beer and cocktails, at around 12am a rude person arrived, he pretended to be a manager, stopping us from the table, we didn't understand absolutely anything, they started to remove the chairs, the man made extremely rude movements with his hands and when we understood what was happening it was that we couldn't be there without buying a bottle, the truth is for clients who spent almost $700 in his place, it wasn't right, in the reservation they never told me this, nor when we arrived, they never let us know that they were going to take away our table for not buying a bottle and give it to a person who arrives at 12 at night, without a reservation and only to buy a bottle. This place is beautiful, the food is very good, we would have consumed much more but the treatment we received in the end was horrendous, rude, we would not return! I hope they can improve the service and let their customers know what the system is for the tables from the first moment one arrives at the canteen.
