Service was the worst I've ever seen . Took 20 minutes just for drink orders. They had 1 bar tender , she didn't know how to make drinks . Pretty sad . Spent about 3 hours there , they had a lot of people doing nothing. Food was bland , very little flavor but looked pretty . The so called sushi was the best tasting thing they had . Atmosphere was extremely too loud , loved the music but had to scream at the person beside me just to have a conversation. Spent $180 on food that sit in my refrigerator just to be thrown away . Will never go back

The atmosphere is incredible! The crunchy mofongo became one of my favorite dishes ? Alejandra was my server, her attention was 10/10. If you want to have a good time with your friends, it's the ideal place, and even more so if the DJ is there??

I’ve been here 4 times and it’s been pretty good each time (food wise) but the prices are RIDICULOUS. My boyfriend and I ordered an appetizer, the omg entree, the skirt steak with yuca fries, and a VIRGIN piña colada. Our total was $98. I feel so stupid because I had to remind our waiter about my drink and was charged full price ($14) for my NON-ALCOHOLIC drink. Their tables and chairs all wobble which paired perfectly with my overcooked steak that I had to cut through.Normally when you go to restaurants in large groups, 15-20% gratuity is included. Surprise!!! They include it for all parties. Probably had to implement this because people weren’t tipping due to horrible service (check the other reviews) $15 added to the bill for poor service, and overpriced food.

**Keep in mind for this review we were the only 2 people in this entire restaurant**The food was the least of our worries, it gets so much worse. Read until the end.Food:The appetizer “mofonguitos” was more salt than chicken to the point that it burns your mouth to take a bite from the amount of salt and everything was soaked in grease and fat. The 2 appetizers for our table of 2 arrived at the table 10 minutes apart after being ordered at the same time and we didn’t wish to begin eating without our friends revived any food yet and it took 30min total to receive drinks.Service: Even speaking fluent Spanish the waitress looked more confused to be there than I was, as Spanish is all she spoke. We ordered lemonades and appetizers and she proceeded to take all our menus so I explained that we had only ordered appetizers so she said ok and commenced to collect all our menus except for 1 for all of us to share. She had noted the 3 ordered appetizers down only to return to ask questions several times. 20 minutes after ordering she returns to inform us that they actually don’t serve lemonade and instead recommended their most expensive cocktails to which we declined and asked for waters that we received another 10min later. After asking for the check we waited another 10min while the waitress was sitting down eating, we walked up and requested it again. She hands us the check with an automatic gratuity already generated which went against the policy printed in their menu (please see photos). We requested it be removed and the waitress said it can’t be removed to which I pointed out the policy in she spoke to the fellow waitress and they said the manager wasn’t there and we could wait while they tried to call her. They then handed us a new check with 50% off everything for the inconvenience to which we handed them our card only for them to hand us our receipt with the initial price which included the gratuity that had initially been given to us. Very sneaky, deceitful and disgraceful business management. I asked them if it was some twisted joke only for the manager to be called again and saying over the phone to just give us $4 in cash out of the register. Never going there again is an understatement. 2 hours of our anniversary wasted.

I have eaten here a few times, the food is good, but every time I go, the service goes from bad to worse, today I was waiting for about 20 minutes and no one came to serve us and we decided to leave

Great presentation but below average taste and quality. Definitely overpriced! Empanadas for appetizers were good. We tried the burger but was overcooked and dry. Lomo saltado sushi didn't taste great. Piña colada had large chunks of ice in it. Overall the place has a great potential but currently the food and drinks quality are not that good and prices are very high! Music was very loud too.
