    We enjoyed the crab cakes appetizer which was our server’s suggestion. The lunch we each ate was awesome. Our server and trainee were attentive and fun. We want to go back in the spring and enjoy the outside seating and the marina. Really beautiful view!

    I enjoy this restaurant. It’s a great place to take the family. The drinks are generous and well crafted, the food always delicious with a Latin influence, and the ambience is perfect with just the right amount of noise to comfortably take kids but not too loud you can’t hear. The staff is attentive and particularly good when you bring children with a generous kids menu. I recently had the pork chop with an adobo sauce and poblano pepper polenta. It was fantastic, cooked perfectly.

    Our server was excellent in advising about the menu & what was available. Didn’t have to ask for beverages to be refilled & other staff was also right on top of removing plates when needed. The food was excellent and our server made our visit even better. The food is top quality.
