Amazing food, excellent service, and a great atmosphere. Arianna went above and beyond making sure we are good, service is good. The dishes are full of flavor, beautifully prepared, and made with fresh ingredients. The staff is friendly and attentive, making every visit a great experience. Definitely one of the best restaurants in the area-highly recommended! Of course I’ll come back!

Birthday weekend decided to hang out with friends and family grown,professional,and sexy. The esthetics are gorgeous inside,the bar area super cute, my table.had a server named “Javi” his job performance was OK. He did not introduce himself when approach my table and asked us to move according to him the ENTIRE bar and tables were reserved so.ething that the hostess did not mention so I let it be and we move to the dining area near the restrooms there, Javi approaches my table again and still does not ask if it was our first time there, did not bother to elaborate on the menu or the type of fusion served still no introduction. So I ask what’s your name? What type of food is served here? And let him know we have never been there he did not even offer house drinks nohing at all it was like going to so.eone house but they dont want you there.Everyone orders we get alcoholic beverages, appetizers, food I mean we went to enjoy and celebrate ME. The food was OVER THE TOP EXPENSIVE and SUPER BASIC. Ceasar salad 18$ plain fried calamari $22 salty, my drinks $18 super small glass ,and very minimal alcohol. After we finishe eating we want to stay consume,spend,dance,laugh but we find out that EACH PERSON IN MU TABLE had to PAY $15 for an event we had no idea of mind you we were ALREADY THERE so I ask what’s the $15 per person for? I was told a DJ will play 90’s music so I ask is it like a Popular DJ or FAMOUS the answer was NOOO local DJ who plays at house parties so wait $15 per person to listen to someone ay musoc that I can do at my house on YOUTUBE MUSIC. Then the other side there was a Birthday party and only their guests cam go to that side so here we are can go to one side or the other the only option was to stay at the bar thats the size of a master bedroom. NOOOOOOOOOPE food suzs amd MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO COORDINATE BETTER WITH PRIVATE EVENTS. I DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS PLACE TO EAT BUT IF U WANT TO SPEND A LOCAL CHILL NIGHT WITH UR GIRLS AT A CUTE PHOTO OP BAR THIS THE PLACE. I ADVICE owners and management go to like a hospitality training and servers alike. Because the LACK OF EXPERIENCE is pretty obvoius.

I can only review the waitress and the lack of competence as a vegetarian I asked was there any meat or seafood in what I ordered she was not knowledgeable at all. Thank God I don’t have a anaphylactic reaction to animal product I definitely got nauseous and irritated.

We recently visited Florida as a party of six to celebrate my mom’s birthday. Although we initially had an issue reserving a table online, I was able to call and make a reservation without any trouble, which we appreciated.
Upon entering, the restaurant is absolutely adorable. It’s divided into three different rooms, each with its own unique vibe. We loved walking through two of the rooms and taking photos—such a fun touch. The room to the left was closed due to repairs and possibly low occupancy, which was understandable since it was a Tuesday and didn’t affect our experience.
Toward the end of our visit, salsa music and reggaeton were playing, which we really enjoyed. To top it off, they surprised my mom with a happy birthday sign and dessert, which was a very nice and thoughtful gesture.
Now, onto the food—since that’s often the main reason for dining out. We started with a round of drinks and shots, which were great and served in super cute cups. For appetizers, we ordered the calamari and the tostones with short ribs; both were good and enjoyable.
For our main courses, we ordered the 3 Grill Boss, Lomo en Llamas, and El Rooster. The Lomo en Llamas was flavorful and served warm, which we appreciated. However, one of the Grill Boss steaks had to be sent back because it was ordered medium and arrived very pink. Unfortunately, even after it was returned, it came back barely more cooked, and the guest ultimately couldn’t eat her entrée. Additionally, two of the Grill Boss dishes came with mashed potatoes that were very cold, which was disappointing and not something you’d expect when dining out. The steaks themselves lacked seasoning and were topped with a butter that didn’t add much flavor.
The chicken dish was also quite oily and didn’t reflect the wine sauce that was described on the menu.
Service-wise, we noticed that our waters were not refilled, even after asking. This stood out especially since the restaurant wasn’t busy—there were about 15 guests total, and our group accounted for six of them.
Overall, I truly see a lot of potential here. The ambiance, drinks, and appetizers were enjoyable, and the birthday gesture was a lovely touch. I would love to see improvements in food seasoning, temperature, and attentiveness to guests, as these details can really elevate the dining experience.
I would definitely return for drinks and appetizers and would be open to giving the food another try in the future if improvements are made.

Food was delicious, creative and I found the portions nice sized. I’d love to go back for their brunch. Drinks were expensive but honestly that is what we are finding all over.

this is the worst place I’ve Eat The size of the meals are like a kids size, the food didn’t have any flavor the prices that are extremely high.
It was better to buy food at Mcdonals ,
is not Worth spending the amount of money we spent in a place like that one.
Then after we finish our meal, there was an event in the dining area and they literally told us that we had to pay to stay or we had to leave.
Need better food !
Horrible, horrible horrible!
