    Nice location. Staff was amazing. Our server Marivel was great! She was quick and very spot on. They gave us table after booking with Open Table on the app. Table was at the front of the restaurant. They gave you the right portion sizes. Music and vibe was good. They even gave us a top on the table under the umbrella in case it rains. The seafood was as advertised. Definitely worth it. Although price was just a tad higher than my expectations. My opinion only. They also force you to pay the 20% tip included in final price. But Marivel deserved it and also the entire team of servers there. Definitely would come back. My family loved it!

    Fettuccini Alfredo was bland. The Greek salad was good.

    Decent experience. I’m not a picky person but certain things bothered me. Food was average, Mahi overcooked (I’ve eaten so much Mahi in my life), charged an extra $4 for Makers Mark in the Old Fashioned, stating it’s “premium,” which it’s not (same price as Bulleit - really bothered me). Lastly, when the bill came, not only did she charge my card but also charged the wrong table in addition. She explained that it was quickly refunded, which it was. However, not something you do. I would tell tourists to go because it is a nice place but for locals, far better food.
