    The front reception, the girls that work there are not friendly. The food was okay. The rice was a bit hard. And the beans have no flavor. Will not return.

    This was the absolute best place i have ever been. The staff was amazing. The food was delicious. The bathrooms were clean. The service was excellent. Everyone was so attentive to all of our needs. The manager really is doing a great job and doesn’t need to change anything.

    I personally think the food was pretty mid. The ambiance was very nice and the place was really pretty but the food could’ve been better. I honestly could find better food trucks than an actual restaurant. Also there’s a 18% gratuity automatically applied which I guess is applied because I wouldn’t give a tip since I didn’t like the food. If you’re brown and have a spicy palette of taste, I wouldn’t recommend. Honestly thought it would be better than it was.

    My wife and I went to the restaurant to celebrated our anniversary and as we came fifteen minutes before the scheduled reservation the welcome host told us to go to the bar section until our table was ready and WHAT A MISTAKE because we were attended by an very UNPOLITE bartender that not only not welcomed to the table but beside that the draft beer sucked he not even say thank when i paid the bill and of course this restaurant charged 18% for anything for the bill but not only that he t throw the bill on the table and not said thank you never saw anything like that in any restaurant in this country. Also I asked to speak to the manager and though she apologized for the situation that we experienced at least I though we will received some kind of compensation but it did not happened something that I believe would happens at any other restaurant. In conclusion the waitress Valentina was very good and understood our frustration and the food though very expensive and small portion was very good.

    This was my 3rd time here, but my husband and friends first time, the experience was amazing. Our waitress Camila was phenomenal. Our food was absolutely delicious. Manager came by the table and delivered our drinks, made sure we were good as well ! We will definitely be back when we visit from Miami.
