    Our experience was GREAT, except our table was directly behind the musicians, not a great view. I normally ask to move, but my party did not support me.

    We enjoyed the experience of the music, ambience and atmosphere. The service was fine too. The food however was terrible! Had the foie gras for an appetizer and the toasts were not fresh. Foie Gras was passable. Had beef empanadas which were barely enjoyable. Ordered their Prime Rib which was supposedly legendary. Couldn’t even finish half as it was just not good. Only the sautéed mushrooms side was decent. This is a great place for the ambiance, service and atmosphere to be enjoyed with a few drinks, but dinner quality was poor.
