There aren’t a lot of places that serve pulpo tacos, so I am very very happy! They’re my favorite, and Cliffdiver’s are delicious! The drinks are lovely too!

Made a reservation on Open Table for lunch at 1:30, It was confirmed and I even got another text to confirm. I arrived at restaurant at 1:30 and went thru the side door where a worker asked if he could help. I indicated that I had a 1:30 reservation—he said we’re not opened yet. We don’t open till around 3:00p. I showed him my confirmation and he said tat he didn’t know, but he was the only one there. I was extremely disssapointed and this should never happen on OT. If the restaurant is not open for lunch, then they should know that!

We come here pretty regularly as the food is outstanding (Lobster Enchiladas anyone?) Staff both in the front of the house and back did a great job with the huge crowds in Mother’s Day. Props to them! Food quality was great as always! We saw 2 other families we know who went based on our recommendation and loved it also. See you guys next time!

I loved this place. My only issue is that I could smell the cleaning solution the restaurant uses. It smelled like Fabrisioso(?) I will come back and sit outside.
