The prices were definitely a little high. The place itself was alright, nothing particularly special. However, the empanadas were quite disappointing; they were incredibly thin, and there was a very small amount of both meat and vegetables inside, with the dough making up the majority of the filling. The steak plates, on the other hand, had a lot of nerve! The flavor of both the empanadas and the steak plates was okay overall.

Great place for enjoying live music with friends and family. This is the second time we dined here. It was a Wednesday night when the 4 of us had dinner here, live music is on the weekends so the vibe that evening was a bit subdued but we had a great time. We ordered: - Ceviche de camaron y mango (6/10): The mango salsa is quite sweet, wish more acidic. - Lomo Saltado (7/10): good - Sangria Roja (6/10): too sweet for my taste, not fruity - Mofongo Roasted Pork (6/10): luke warm, rather bland - Lechon Asado (8/10): quite tasty and flavorful

From the service to the food, everything was delightful. Greeted with a warm smile Ordered the yucca cheese balls, which were chewy and cheesy with the green sauce, so good. Ordered the chicken plate, which was tender rice & beans cooked perfectly With thier house sauce The rice pudding for dessert had the right amount of cinnamon and wasn't overly sweet

First time Coming here . Met with some out of town friends and someone had suggested this place . I was not blown away. Inside it smelled like cigar smoke. The host was not very friendly and the service from waiter was iffy. I think he was also the bartender at same time ? Food was kinda pricey and I was not blown away by my ropa vieja. I didnt even finish it. I took it home and gave it to stray cats. The Sangria was good and that was about it.

Food filled the gut. Oxtail was not flavorful. Dark and loud. Had the wave people down. To get our water filled. Hot sauce never came. Tail meat was 20% . First picture was ALL THE FAT and bone.
