First time here. Came early on a Friday and place was empty, great for us. Loved how it’s decorated on the inside. Modern decor. Sat at the bar. Drinks were made quickly. Bartender was attentive and knows how to actually make drinks. Great happy hour special! Lemon drops were made to perfection and strong!!
The chicken bites and calamari were tasty. The salmon was ok, a bit dry. Broccali, rice and skewers were really good! Our server was great.
They had an erotic poet event that night which we didn’t know about and it was sooooo fun! Loved the energy. I will be back for happy hour at some point soon. I do recommend to give this place a try.

Maybe this just isn’t the place to go for happy hour food. The pictures of meals online (like the whole fish) look good, but the food we got was not. The HH drinks are a great deal $5, and HH food was $7. There is no happy hour menu online, so hopefully this review helps someone else make better choices than we did.
We got the calamari, fish bites, jerk chicken, and the ceviche later when the dinner menu was available. All of the happy hour food was plated on a ton of raw spinach, which didn’t add anything but bulk. When we were done, it looked like an entire bag of spinach was left on the table. The calamari and fish bites were cornmeal battered, which is not my favorite but worked a little better for the fish bites. The calamari was overcooked and a 2/10–by far the worst calamari on the square. Just take a look at the pics, I would not have ordered this if I had pics or a happy hour menu, or description somewhere to reference. The fish bites were ok, the salsa was just out of a jar and not very good. Maybe 4/10 for those. The jerk chicken and marinade were the best thing we had, my husband would get it again and gave it 7/10. I’m a ceviche lover, and this ceviche made me sad. It was bland, one-note, didn’t have much marinade at all, and the parsley clashed with it. Maybe some cilantro, red chilis or something would help. The tostones were good. I do not recommend spending $17 for this appetizer.
We were the only table, but service was very slow. We were not in a hurry so it didn’t really matter, but we would have ordered more drinks during the happy hour window if the server came by more often. The table wasn’t bussed until it was too full for another dish, which was not pleasant. We were just sitting around for quite a while with 6 empty glasses and mounds and mounds of raw spinach.
They do have oyster specials on Wednesdays, which is the only place on the square that ever does $1 oysters, so I’ll probably try again on a Wednesday and see how it goes.

The service and vibes were excellent. You would be lucky to have Nia and Jasmine as your waitresses. The food was delicious and would recommend ordering the Jerk chicken skewers and the Ceviche as appetizers. For an entree I recommend the island blaze chicken. There working on some dessert cheesecakes and let me tell you. If they feature the key lime cheese you will be coming back for more.

The food and drinks were absolutely top – full of flavor and crafted with care. The atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous, with elegant decor and a warm, inviting vibe that makes you want to stay for hours. The DJ was on point, setting the perfect tone and keeping the energy just right throughout the night. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the overall experience felt effortlessly luxurious. A perfect spot for both special occasions and casual indulgence. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful brunch experience! The ambiance is was beautiful from the decor to the music selections. Destiny and the rest of the team provided amazing service and the fish and grits entree was top tier! Not to mention the drinks checked all the boxes. I’ll definitely be back!

I went here on my birthday. The server was the hostess. We placed our order for appetizers and drinks. It took a little while for that to come out. The food was bland. We had the stuffed plantains, jerk chicken skiers, and calamari. the calamari was cornbread no sauce came with it then I ordered the meal. I had the Venezuelan scramble. There was no seasoning in it. There was no sauce that should’ve been with it. We ordered the French toast with the bananas and all the little decorative stuff on it. None of that came on it. We also had burnt bacon all in all the food just was not good. I spoke with the manager and told him my concerns, he just said if you ate it, you have to pay for it no consideration that I had about 20 people that came and all the food came out just not seasoned at all , he did say that he only had one Cook he was looking for workers. He offered me a drink at this point. I was just over it I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. I don’t mind paying for good food, but you will not get that there.

I wanted to take the time to give a detailed review because, like others, I check a restaurant’s reviews before visiting. We were a bit skeptical based on the reviews we saw but decided to give it a chance after seeing a few personal reviews on Instagram—and I’m so glad we did!
Atmosphere: The décor was just the right touch—elegant but not over the top, perfectly fitting for the area. It wasn’t overly packed for a Friday night, which my husband appreciated. The old-school R&B playing in the background created a chill and inviting vibe that made the experience even better.
Staff: Our waitress was exceptional—friendly, professional, and attentive from start to finish. I’m not usually a big tipper, but she went above and beyond, ensuring we were comfortable throughout our meal. She even updated us on how long our food would take, which is a rare but thoughtful touch.
Drinks: I had two Amaretto Sours, and let me tell you, the bartender did her thing! I usually stop at one drink, but it was mixed so perfectly I had to get another. My husband had the Berry-Rum Collins and enjoyed it just as much.
Appetizer: We both ordered the jerk chicken skewers, and they were juicy, flavorful, and seasoned just right. My husband especially loved the chef’s special jerk sauce on the side.
Dinner: I had the Island Blaze Chicken, while my husband went for the Tropical Tango Sensation. Both meals were packed with flavor, and we appreciated the generous portion sizes—especially since many restaurants have started cutting back. The presentation was also impressive, making it feel like more than just a regular restaurant meal.
Overall, we were thoroughly impressed and will definitely be back for more date nights!! Highly recommend checking out if you are in the area!

Wanted to go to a little lounge type spot to watch the NBA 3 point contest and Dunk contest. The drinks were made very well, tasted great, and there is a vast variety of alcohol to choose from. I ordered the Jerk Chicken skewers, as well, and the chicken was juicy and full of flavor. The staff was very professional, and did a great job on making sure I was comfortable. Definitely 10/10, will be coming back here for sure!

We planned a date night, booked a baby sitter, and booked a reservation at this restaurant online for this evening. The reservation was confirmed via email by the restaurant, but once we arrived we saw that the restaurant was actually closed. There was no phone call, email, or anything to notify us of this. This is very disappointing as we had to find another restaurant at the last minute.
