I stopped here with a buddy to get food around 1pm. The menu was for brunch but we wanted something more hardy. The manager I believe, if not owner, gave us the dinner menu very eager to keep us to stay and make sure we were happy. The food was amazing. Grilled shrimp and octopus over a bed of amazing hummus. The bread served with ricotta whipped crème and olive oil. That spread alone was amazing. The short rib plate was insane, melting off bone and the pasta unbelievable. Had a skirt steak as well and the potatoes served in small portions were crisp and flavored with garlic. We definitely over ate and had to pack to-go. We ended with the strongest coffee I ever had, and yes it was good too. Honestly we expected to pay more than the bill was so we tipped them good. I’m now re heating the left overs. Highly recommend if you love your tastebuds. Great environment. Very caring staff. You will thank him and then me. Your welcome.

Went here for lunch on a Weds. no wait for a table it was pretty empty. The oysters were good that was the tastiest thing we had. The Ceaser salad was good as well. The octopus was good but it was a very small portion for the price. Only one piece. The crab cake wasn’t tasty and was overpriced and the salmon tartar wasn’t the best either. It needed like plantain chips or pita or something to go with it.

Stephany and Luis were the GREATEST experience Bartenders ever. Not only did they make sure my food was fantastic, my drinks were cold and that we were just having a great time. . The pizza was fantastic, but in reality we came here for the atmosphere and both Stephanie and Luis made it a five star/6 star experience

I came here for a quiet Friday night. I sat at the bar and waited 20 minutes for the menu. The bartender was talking to some girls, and I barely managed to get his attention. I ordered drinks, and they were the worst I've ever had this restaurant. They took forever to bring them, and the food too. I waited almost an hour. The bartender, Pedro, tried to compensate me with a shot. I didn't say anything; I just paid and walked away and thanked him. The service was terrible, and they still charged me 18%. I wanted to try the Sunday morning brunch , but the service was terrible again. The bartenders seemed new they had to go to the kitchen to ask the chef about the ingredients The girl bartending drinks were awful I ordered one, and it smelled awful, rotten. She spent most of the time talking, apparently to her, I think, friends. I had to go get my own utensils and napkin. They didn't even bring me water so I had to ask for it. I asked if they had any drinks One was a Bloody Mary and the other was made with grapefruit, and they didn't have any, so why were they on the menu? The food was very decent The most disgusting thing was watching my bartender sneeze and wipe her nose with a napkin. And she didn't wash her hands or wear gloves when she picked up the lemons mid-service. Very disgusting. And I thought the outfit was super indecent, showing half of her buttocks. I didn't feel comfortable, and she took a couple of shots with her friends. What a shame, unprofessional. I was very disappointed with this place. It's completely lost its essence. It used to be a a gem a good place to meet people Now I don't know what to say I hope things change, but I won't be back. It was a very bad experience twice in a row. The level of the drinks and service I had in mind dropped considerably. How would I recommend someone to something like what I saw or was treated? Mmm no!!!

I went in to have lunch and the vibe was off the hook. I enjoyed my meal and the service was excellent. Nastassia and Stefany were very professional. They knew their job and did their job the way a person in their profession should do. I would definitely recommend this spot.
I had a good experience and enjoyed my dinner. Food and service was really good.

The food was good, I had a zucchini chip appetizer and the branzino and veggie special they had for the day. The drinks were no good. I had a mango mojito, could have went without it honestly. My friend had a coconut mojito and it tasted like milk and soda. The waiters were attentive, but it made us feel rushed. We expressed that we wanted to eat before drinking and our waiter came to the table three times before the appetizers came out asking if we were ready to order drinks. And then another time after the appetizers arrived. We finally ordered drinks when the main course arrived and were extremely underwhelmed by the drinks. Another waiter came to our table and began to remove our plates once we received our drinks and we had to stop her because we weren’t even half way done with our meal.
The ambience of the restaurant is very cute and intimate. I would have returned for a date, but I was just so thrown off by how fast they were trying to get us out of there. There were three tables in the dining room, including us so we weren’t sure what the urgency was about.
