    The service was great, the staff was very attentive the ambiance was amazing. However, my steak was very dry. I asked for some sort of sauce and was told that they do not serve anything with my specific meal. The rice was dry and the portion size was small.

    This was one of the greatest experiences I’ve had. The ambiance was really pretty and the food was delicious. The customer service is welcoming. I had the chicken Alfredo but substituted for salmon and it was mouth watering. I’m he ceviche was very good too. I will be back.

    The food is very good, the cocktails are ok (nice presentation), and the music is too loud. I had a reservation and still had to wait 40 min. Has a very small parking area.

    The food was delicious with generous portions, but the service was frustrating. The server pushed an unexpected $280 drink without informing the group about size or price, and water service was abysmal—taking 45 minutes and requiring multiple requests for cups. Tracking down the server afterward was difficult, and when found, he was dismissive. While the mariachi entertainment was enjoyable, the poor service put a damper on the celebration. Advice: arrive prepared, avoid unexpected items, and manage expectations for service delays.
