   Great food, ambience and servers were kind and professional. They did not have enough waiters or waitresses on staff to handle the volume of customers.

   My family and I had a 3pm reservation. The restaurant itself was nice, vibrant colors, soft music, was seated immediately. The service was very good, staff was very friendly and attentive. The drinks were ok, a bit watered down, we had a few drinks on the rocks and it didn’t taste the way it’s supposed to. The food was decent, the let down was the marinera paella. Didn’t taste nor look like the traditional paella. Overall a fair/good experience.

   La comida fue con precio elevados y mi esposa y yo fuimos para esperar el año pensando que iba a ver música en vivo pero solo había un cantante con música de fondo grabada y de verdad pensábamos que iba a ver un grupo musical sino no hubiéramos ido ya que el gasto fue muy caro para dos personas lo único positivo fue el servicio

   Everything was horrible! The food tasted bad, the wait staff couldn’t be worse, the singer (not band as promised) sang terrible off key and the ambiance left a lot to be desired.

   A friend of mine recommended this place , I love Cuban food and was willing to try it . My overall experience was good but not amazing . Would I be back that’s too be determined . But try it out if you want to mix it up a bit .

   I read great reviews but wouldn’t go back. The food was ok, which isn’t fair to judge because everyone has different tastes but beer wasn’t really cold, I get it’s a hot day but this is an indoor place. The air conditioner didn’t work and it was super hot. The waiter was nice but dripping in sweat which concerned me when bringing the food. I wouldn’t go back.
