Everything was great except the dessert. Pass on the sundae. Not worth it. And the Mexican chocolate ice cream is a loser. Basically all the flavors are vanilla with only a hint of horchata or cocoa. But otherwise we had a nice meal.

Everything was good and right there on Ocean. I would have liked if they said no valet or validation on their sign at the curb. Instead it said $12 w validation. When I was talking with the parking attendant, he was confused and so was I, lol. Everything else was geeat.
