Music at pool or party next door was very loud. We had a hard time talking to each other in a normal level.

There was one vegetarian entree option on the menu and while it sounded interesting it was tasteless (and also tiny). Environment was nice. Just wish food was better.

I’ll keep this short and sweet. The food was excellent (pan fried red snapper as main course-order this, it was amazing). Restaurant was nice, hostess polite, etc… all the things you would expect. However, our server,Jose was phenomenal.!A polite gentleman, personable, knowledgeable about the dishes, good recommendations. I can’t share enough accolades about this guy. Caña, take notice and recognize him. He is the sole reason I am sharing this review with your prospective diners.

We ordered croquettes, wine, chicken and fish entrees and dessert. Our waitress was very nice . There was a bit of a communication problem. The croquettes were very good and the wine was fine. The food arrived and it was bland and not flavorful. We had to pay for the drinking water and a serving of plain rice ! Much ado about nothing . Another place next time

Not a great exoerience. Food pretty good but not great. Service just ok. I ordered an Aperol Spritz and it was made with ginger beer. Asked twice if the fish was coated in flour, was told it wasn’t (I’m GF). It arrived coated in flour. Surprised because it has a James Beard Award.
