Friday was my first time to Ceviche! I loved it! I met some brand new friends for the first time. I just had a side salad and it was great. Absolutely loved the ambiance. I will definitely be returning!

Great service...thanks, Jae! The Cuban music and decor create a fun atmosphere! Oh... And the food is just like you find in Miami. There are many things on the menu to try...we will be back!

I was in town visiting some friends when we decided to stop in here. Food was AMAZING, drinks were FANTASTIC although I think a lot of that had to do with our amazing bar tender Adrina. She was super quick with the drinks and made the best expresso martini I've ever had! Thanks Adrina/Civeche
