Everything was delicious! The food was exquisite, the atmosphere was cozy, and everything tasted very fresh. The waitresses were very attentive, and the food runners were just as kind and pleasant. Special thanks to the manager, Alex, for taking such excellent and outstanding care of us. I would definitely come back again and again!

Great place! Our server Ricky was awesome. We had a large party of 14 for which I was able to make the reservation earlier in the week.
The table was ready when I arrived. The server was friendly and warm. The on duty manager checked on us regularly.
Live music played in the corner. We enjoyed it. At one point a few people were up dancing
Dislikes…. whatever the shot was that comes out on fire-terrible. Lol. My rice in the Arroz con Pollo was a mixed of cooked and not full cooked rice. Everyone enjoyed their food though. The empanadas, pan, Cowboys Steak were all good. Snapper was superb!

I happened to stumble upon an online reel of Muraya’s brunch and decided to give it a try for our anniversary celebration. We went in excited to try their dishes and everything far exceeded our expectations!!! The food was absolutely incredible and matched with the most outstanding service. Valerie and Alejandro were so warm, kind and generous. This place is truly a gem! We can’t wait to return and try the dinner menu and hopefully on an evening with their live music.

The restaurant ambiance is incredible. Staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel welcomed right away. My server, Ricky is very knowledgeable about the menu and the culture. We traded wonderful culinary stories and he became a friend by the end of the night.
The Arroz Con Pollo is literally one of the best I’ve had since I first tried Latin cuisine, the checker was perfectly flavored, done to perfection and set on a perfectly cooked bed of arroz. The rest drop peepers and a really wonderful zest to the entire meal. I highly recommend ordering with Maduros (Sweet Plantains).
Fo Dessert, the Secretos de Cacao is just REDICULOUSLY rich and delicious! The house made caramel sauce is a special treat m, the chocolate dome melts and creates a wonderful pallet of textures and smooth notes of chocolate that doesn’t overwhelm but soothe the end of an incredible meal.
10/10 I highly recommend

This place was an experience from start to finish. As soon as we walked in, dim, cozy lighting with a stylish, intimate vibe, and music that was the perfect volume to enjoy conversation while still setting the mood. It felt upscale but still relaxed and fun.
The service was truly exceptional. Our server Valery was warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive. Every recommendation she made from drinks to food was spot on, and everything came out perfectly timed. We felt genuinely taken care of the entire night.

Tried this place last month and finally making a review. I loved the atmosphere and the food! The live band was nice and our server was so sweet. I would definitely love to come back and try other dishes. I wasn’t a fan of the matcha martini, but that’s an acquired taste.

We were very well welcomed from beginning to end, and the service was excellent. The staff was attentive and polite throughout our entire experience. The food was well seasoned and flavorful, which we truly appreciated.
However, there were a few points that could be improved. There were three different types of music playing at the same time, a live band and other music coming from separate speakers, which made it difficult to connect with the atmosphere and even have a conversation, as the volume was a bit too loud. In addition, although the rice was well seasoned, it was undercooked and hard, and the meat came out very burnt with a bitter taste.

Ricky was our server and made the whole night. The food and drinks were spectacular, but he helped us select from their amazing menu. The food is so well-thought-out and the cocktails came out quick but well crafted. It was our first visit, but we will be back again.

Diana was our waitress this afternoon for our girls brunch!! She was amazing!! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave some excellent suggestions. She appropriately checked on us and made sure to keep our glasses refilled without disturbing our meal. She was courteous and attentive. The food was so AMAZING!!! The pistachio pancakes are a must try!! We also ordered the chicken sandwich which was delicious and a burger that was also very good. The atmosphere was simply gorgeous and had a lovely vibe to it. Next time we will try to come for dinner. This is our first time being here but we will definitely be back and will make sure to ask for Diana. Her bilingual skills are amazing as well!!

Went here with some friends and my partner. Got seated pretty quick for a Saturday night. Waiter was on point and attentive. The food was great, the empanadas were delicious as well as the arroz y habichuelas. A friend ordered rh 60oz steak for the table, asked for med rare and it came out rare, a quick chat and they corrected it. Steak could’ve used a bit more flavor but it was good overall. The churros! Made the night for me. Whew. The live band added to the atmosphere which was nice. Easily come back here.
