   So for 1:30 hour we had to sit and listen to Kids Pop music at its highest volume. After several request to the manager to lower the children’s music, It went unheard. Not until others complained then action was taken. For my first experience I was totally dissatisfied with the management and will probably never return. FYI We also waited 1 hour for our food that came separately! Never again!!!

   The appetizers potato ball and empanada were delicious. The jibalta bisteca sandwich was a little hard to eat since it was very tough and chewy but had a good flavor.

   Love their trifongo, in my opinion the absolute best! I’ve tried several things & all delicious from appetizers of empanadas, alcapurrias, sorrullitos de maíz to main dishes of el chillo, rice & beans, steak, pork, & chicken, very tasty! Deserts & drinks are also good, my favorite is el limbs de coco & drinks mojito!

   The food was delicious but could have been a bit more flavorful. The grilled onions on the chicken were a bit bland.

   My family and I were there to celebrate my 67th birthday. The place was amazing. The waiter, Julio was amazing and the food to die for. It was worth the 35 minute drive. We will definitely go again without hesitation.

    I made a reservation about a week before December 31st and even called the restaurant the same day to confirm the reservation because I needed to adjust the number of people attending. The reservation was confirmed on the phone, so I was looking forward to dining at this restaurant. When I arrived at 7:30 PM on December 31st, as scheduled, I was shocked to find out that the kitchen was closed. To make matters worse, there was no one at the door to greet or assist me. I waited at the front for a while and eventually had to go look for someone. When I finally found a waiter, I was told with an attitude that the kitchen was closed. This experience was especially disappointing because we were not only celebrating New Year’s Eve but also our anniversary. While I understand that unexpected situations can arise, the way this was handled was incredibly unprofessional. There was no prior notification, no alternative offered, and no genuine apology for the inconvenience. The lack of communication, poor customer service, and dismissive attitude left a very bad impression. A restaurant that values its customers should ensure better planning and communication, especially on such a significant evening. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this place based on my experience.
