Best time to visit is before the dinner crowd, which starts about 5:30pm. Service was mid, as our waiter was hard to locate for the first 20min after seating. Then he took for ever to bring out our soup & salads. Our chef Pepito was amazing! If I could have fit him into my pocket to take home, I would have. Food was flavorful & he didn't mind any of our special request in regards to adding cooking time on to certain items or adding a little extra garlic butter for flavor.

This restaurant chain has been around for many years . The chefs could do other routines. It's not fascinating anymore. I bought my 4 year old to be excited. Also, poor cleaning. The bathroom was messy and dirty. No toilet tissue. Our waitress, Gabriel, was amazing. Very attentive. Anticipated our needs. Made the other party at our table special. It was their 1st time and birthday celebration. Overall, 4 stars because of the waitress and food was good.

Was seated with 3 small kids that made a lot of noise. Food was barely seasoned & mediocre at best. Paying $115 didn’t help either. The only thing I really liked was the strawberry lemonade.
