   The waiter was not very friendly. He not once checked on us once we had a meal. He did not come and clear our table. He was basically worthless.

   Food and drinks were great….service, not so much. Thank heavens we were seated right on the Ocean Blvd sidewalk, the people watching definitely passed the time as our waitress rarely checked on us. They automatically add a 20% “service charge” with the option to add a custom tip which I normally will always do as long as the service warrants it. Our waitress clearly thought it should be added regardless of her service. As we all paid our bills and the waitress noticed she wasn’t getting any additional tips we instantly got attitude and rolling eyes from her.

   The restaurant is large and very much on the main beachfront drag. The food was excellent (and not terribly overpriced!) and our server, Jennifer, was attentive and friendly.

   Nice ambiance before the show. It's extremely loud if you stay to the show.

   It was my friend’s 50th bday I discretely asked the hostess if they could sing for her as a surprise and she said sure We finished our appetizers and no one came to greet my friend. Asked the waiter what kind of red wine does he recommend and he said the wine menu is there We just ordered the appetizer which was delicious but did not want to spend more time there. I would probably find another Cuban restaurant next time. The service counts for a lot
