    Just got done eating last night at this so called restaurant, but my reservation was at 8:30 got seated quick but food didn't come out until 9:30 a whole hour later crazy. Food was just mediocre and no flavor. Don't I repeat don't get the ARROZ MELOSO had 2 bites and legit got disgusted from the flavor. A restaurant I'll for sure say is heavily influenced and filled with dishonest reviews while having and hearing waiters ask for good reviews exchange for complementary desserts. And the view of the freeway is amazing from. the restaurant? what a disappointment if I could, no stars would be given.

    This was our second year visiting for Valentine’s Day and our server, Christine, made it more special than the first. She was kind, quick with help, and took good care of us. 10/10 service. Food and drinks were a 10/10 as well!
