Worst dining experience I have had in a long time! I don't even want to waste my time on them more than I have already so keeping it short: extremely small portions, very expensive (think half sliced red snapper for $53 and a lobster tail for $42), 20% automatic gratuity, and 3% automatic kitchen appreciation fee!! Food was honestly horrible and drinks were mid at best - a dive bar could make better drinks both taste and presentation wise! After spending $250 and leaving hungry, I feel like a total idiot for trusting the reviews here. What pissed me off the most was that a specific dessert was mentioned in the regular dessert menu but apparently only available if you chose the pre fixe menu. So the people ordering à la carte aren't worthy enough for you to serve that dessert? So my over
The plants in this restaurant, the lighting, it’s so beautiful. Very cool decor. The rum flight was delicious! 3 to choose from. Best value on the menu. Food is on the high end cost and menu size of casual dining. There were so many good flavors but many fell flat due to other elements. The calamari plate was so tasty but the squid was so well done the squid was tough/chewy and fried served col/room temp. But excellent heat salt textures and so pretty. The fish (Spanish mackerel) was very pretty, delicate and crisp. The Cesar salad contained ABrussels sprouts and a heavy anchovy dry dressing and tasted like its ingredients. Dried fish and Brussel sprouts. The coconut foam sponge cake lime dessert dish was beautiful and scrumptious. Lime real coconut. the flan was very decadent.
I understand why this place has a great reputation. Very welcoming restaurant with delicious food and cocktails. The Plantain dish (first course) was incredible and the steak (main) had a delicious sauce. I read one recent review that complained about portions (and I warned my group about that when ordering) but this was not the case. Everyone in my group felt the portions were appropriate or big. Everyone left full and happy.
Excellent food. I got the lamb shank which was very tender and flavorful. Our group tried almost all the appetizers and they were all good. I am picky with my steak tartare but theirs was also good and well-flavored. Highly recommend this place.
The atmosphere was wonderful — beautifully designed and very inviting. The food was absolutely delicious, and the cocktails were incredible. Every dish we tried was full of flavor and clearly well-prepared. That said, the portion sizes were extremely small for the price, which was disappointing. For what you’re paying, you expect a bit more value. Unfortunately, the service really impacted our experience. It was very slow, and our waiter did not seem to multitask well. We were left sitting with menus for about 15 minutes before being acknowledged, and later had dessert menus sitting in front of us for another 15 minutes without anyone checking in. We never received a check-in about how our food was, and we saw far more of the food runners and bussers than our actual server. It was frustrat
