Everything was good. My only complaint is the volume of the music was very loud. I have been there before and the music wasn’t that loud. Looks like they forgot to pay the sound engineer because they were not in their booth. It was hurting my ears. I had to leave early because of that.

Great place to celebrate a special event or just go for a date! The food was delicious. Our server was attentive and professional, and always had a smile on her face. The manager and a few servers stopped by to congratulate us on our anniversary . The salsa lessons and entertainment were a big plus ++ highly recommend.

The prefix menu was terrible and not worth the money. The food seems batched cooked and not made fresh. The manager was rude and didn’t seem to care that we were unhappy about the food. The music and ambiance was decent. Overall it was not worth the money.

Would have 5 five stars. My cousin was disappointed she wasn’t shouted out for her Bach, even though it was added in the reservation notes.
