    The Aquarium is beautiful. There are no bad dining seats. We thoroughly enjoyed watching God's beautiful creatures during our meal. The entrees were beautifully plated. And delicious. I have food allergies and our waiter, Rashun (ruh-shawn) was so helpful, attentive, kind. A great server. The chef, Jackson, and Jameel the manager both made sure my order was safe for my needs. We definitely will go back. Thank you all for a lovely meal in beautiful surroundings!

    Celebrated my birthday Saturday night with 14 of my amazing friends. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, the staff is friendly and the ambiance was beautiful. Tiffany who’s in charge of group reservations was amazing to work with, she was very detailed and communicated well in helping set up my party of 15. We had a variety of the appetizers, sushi rolls and the entrees were a great portion. I will definitely be back.

    For date night this was an amazing experience. Live music Cuban style. The menu was great. The drinks were very tasty but very pricey minimum of $30 per drink no matter what you ordered. The cloak and dagger speakeasy feel was amazing.  it reminded me of the continental hotel from the movie John Wick highly recommend recommended.
