Really enjoyed the place and the food! Our waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable!Food was really really good! We simply did not enjoy the staff talking out loud with personal matters- takes away from the experience.Also the music on the background was from the radio and played the commercials which can be annoying. We plan to return!

Amazing meal at Mario Pagan. Food was fantastic and creative. Special Kudos to our waitress, Mar, and the kitchen staff for their heroic (and ultimately successful) efforts to accommodate our very picky and vegetarian 10 yr old daughter. It was a really lovely time all around, and well worth it. Very glad we went. My only suggestion would be to turn down the AC - it was chilly in there!

Very nice place with lots of space around tables, friendly staff, and amazing food. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth it. They have an all-day brunch menu. We had the linguini, the chicken breast, the steak with monfongo (churrasco a la parilla), and the chicken and waffle sliders. That last one was delicious. Recommended! I had a coquito and a snow mojito (mojito with coconut soda). The coquito was tasty and the mojito was not too remarkable. Not bad, but not the best.
