Food was great. Had the whole Seabass which was moist and flavorful. Potatoes were also tasty. Cold Seabass carpaccio appetizer was good. There was a party in the central dining area which made it kind of loud. Love this place. I will be back.

What a wonderful find this restaurant was! Beautiful setting, warm, attentive service, and some of the freshest flavors ever. The salsas, the flavor of the food, the burst of lime in the margaritas —everything we sampled was bright, fresh and delicious. I can’t wait to go back.

Bottomless spaghetti and meatballs and bottomless chop salad was excellent, especially the salad. Our server, Luis, was prompt and efficient. Reservation/seating timely. Noise level was a bit much. Quieter atmosphere would have made conversation easier for our table of 4.
