We were there for lunch. Had the crab and artichoke dip for appetizer which was wonderful. We both had the crab cake ( very good) with safrito rice (too much cumin for my taste) and a mixture of vegetables perfectly cooked. We didn’t have dessert. Our server was very pleasant and did not rush us off the premises. Will of course be returning!
