“1/3/25…in town for one night, never been here, never heard of this place, just decided to try it. Stopped in around 5:00. The host asked if we had a reservation, we did not. She said “I’ll work you in” and seated us immediately at the bar. The bruschetta was the bomb! The fried chicken was totally out of this world! The service was outstanding! A must go to place!“

“The service we received today was exceptional! Our server, Juan, along with the manager, Alan, did a phenomenal job. They were attentive to every concern we had about the menu items and were happy to make any adjustments needed. For the Conchas a la Parmesana, we found the cheese to be overwhelming, and the scallop was unseasoned. Overall, the music, the ambiance, the service, everything was top-tier. We will definitely be back! We’ve dined at many restaurants, and this is by far the best service we’ve ever received. Thank you, Juan and Alan, for making our experience such a memorable one!“

The service was beyond amazing and the staff made us feel like family. I am usually extremely picky and always find at least one fault….i could not find one and this place. It makes me want to move to Florida. I can’t wait to go back!“

I also like the atmosphere its simple not loud and if you sit at the bar you can watch TV. My only complaint is you get so few fries. Its right down the street from my office so I've been there a few times and would go back.“
