We recently had lunch here last week. The service was perfect. We all really enjoyed our meals too. I thought the price for the amount of food was right on par too. We will definitely return!

It is a place where you will always be greeted with a smiling face, a pleasant voice, followed by a wide variety of delightful and refreshing drinks, and very tasteful dishes. They never disappoint.

I frequented the Plantation location for 15+ years and loved it. A few years ago go, they moved yo a new location and a friend said they changed the menu and that it was no longer good. Sadly, I believed them. Last night, my wife and I decided to give it a try and it was excellent. Same as it always was, but with a new modern, upscale esthetic. The food was spot on. Ther service was friendly, inviting and attentive. I am cuban. The food is good.
