    The venue was nice. Thought it would be a bit more upscale but it has a more casual vibe as we sat outside on the patio. The service was just okay. Nothing spectacular. The waiter sort of rushed us from start to finish. The food was good overall. The octopus ceviche was very good, the traditional chicken soup was decent but not fantastic as it lacked some flavor, the fish main was delish. The Abuelo cocktails were very good.

    If you love bold flavors and unique experiences, the digustation menu is a must. Every dish is prepared intricately and offers a memorable dining experience. Eric is amazing at describing each dish and its preparation. 5Star experience.
