We were a large party… the service was great, everyone enjoyed their food and everyone thought their drinks were very good. I had red sangria and it was delicious! The only thing I would suggest is to change the phone numbers online to the correct one. It was a little difficult to reach someone at the restaurant

Great vibe and ambiance. Not much room to dance if the mood strikes, which there was a very good DJ at the time but other than that food was delicious, Wait time was normal & aesthetic was very a cool retro Hip Hop vibe.
