Service was beyond excellent, food was fantastic and the atmosphere was cool… intimate, lil dark if you catch the wrong seat, even though romantically lit by ah little candle on the table top. But 4.8 outta 5 total experience. Ordered the shrimp mofongo, best ever!! Talk about wanting to drink the sauce, and lick the plate clean… sheeeeeesh.
We’ve had sangria from a ton of places. By far Millie the bartenders sangria is bar far the best and Jorge the server was on point as always. The food top notch!!

What happened to this place? Food is down. Service is even worst! Where have the good servers/bartenders go? And the knowledgeable servers? Are they even paying attention? My friend made I joke we could have literally just walked out, and yes, we could have. We didn’t, but it’s a pretty big difference then what I remember, they had a little garden area inside, unique vibe. This time we asked for it and were told it was closed. Food did not taste good, nothing bad, but just subpar. Might as well go a little further for the real deal. Wish they’d fixed this place, good food and good drinks again, and friendly people. Not all of us speak Spanish. It’s very uncomfortable to have people yelling around in Spanish while you’re trying to flag them for the check. 😞

Everything we ordered was delicious, and both our hostess and server were exceptionally attentive. This easily could have been a five-star experience if not for the mishandled oysters. Unfortunately, whoever was shucking them seemed inexperienced…they were slow, left behind some grit, mangled several, and served many upright, which caused the wonderful liquor to spill out. However, we did get lucky that there was happy hour oysters at the time we went. So happy surprise. The chargrilled oysters were tasty, but at $23 for five, they felt overpriced. On a brighter note, the lobster rolls (both hot and cold preparations) were incredibly fresh and flavorful. Easily among the best I’ve had in a long time!

I went here last weekend for the first time with my boyfriend and we had the best experience. We started with a mojito and lychee martini which were both perfect and so fresh. We got the oysters, baked clams, crab guacamole, and lobster bisque. Everything was delicious and I would go back for the lobster bisque alone. For entree we did the lobster roll and mofungo which were again incredible and full of flavor. I don’t understand any rating less than 5 stars. 10/10 and highly recommend especially for a date night. Atmosphere is so cozy

This was our first time. We will be returning. Melina was our server - very professional and willing to explain the menu to us. She knew when to be attentive. The food was terrific! We ordered the fried calamari to start. It was fresh and crispy. Truly delicious. We had the fish and chips, shrimp Mofongo and the early bird special - Cesar salad, salmon and a dessert. There was lots of food. Everything was cooked to perfection. Of course we all had dessert to end a perfect meal. Give it a try! You will agree it is worth the visit.

Had dinner here and was able to catch the $1 oyster and clam happy hour! Also discounted glass of Sauvignon blanc!
Oysters and clams were fine - you get what you paid for I suppose.
Special Thursday snow crab legs were the best thing we had that night - delicious and great dipping sauce. Also had the fish tacos and linguini with clams but don’t have much to say about them.

Wanted to go here for years since I live nearby. Menus were sticky. Vibe wasn’t great. Got the warm lobster rolls and the meat was overdone and the bun was charred to the point where it tasted burnt. Everything a little too oily.
Unfortunate. I really wanted to like it. Maybe the other items are better.
