   Swanky restaurant in a lively location. We were greeted promptly and sat near the kitchen. Our server made excellent drink, appy and dinner suggestions! The kitchen staff is amazing, working all meals over an open flame. Absolutely delicious!

   Simply put - best meal in Puerto Rico we had. The Cesar salad was so different- yet so perfect - the crispy chic peas is what croutons should be jealous over, the beef tartar which I’m guessing was with quinoa was the best we ever had- the surprise dinner rolls were buttery but with a hint of salt matched with a basil garlic butter- never knew I needed it. The filets were cooked to perfection- truffle fries were crispy and flavored but oddly enough the star of the show was the chicken!!! Perfectly cooked- amazingly juicy and flavorful- I don’t think I’ve ever had or will ever have a better piece of chicken in my life. We were hesitant to book this place as it was fancier and not as authentic as some of our other choices- but this- by far was the best meal in PR and maybe one of our favorites ever. Top it off with fantastic service- hard earned money well spent

   The food was fantastic. The octopus was the best I have ever had. The steak was incredible l Service was fantastic. The only disappointment was that when I made the reservation I filled in that my wife and I were celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary and asked for a little something to remember our dinner with your restaurant, such as little card or menu with a little Happy 35th Anniversary written on it. I guess someone didn’t read that part. We thoroughly enjoyed the ambience, the wait staff and food. We left a good tip for the waiter as my disappointment in the above mentioned oversight should not penalize the waiter.

   El lugar es divino, el ambiente inmejorable, el mesero se portó espectacular. Deben mejorar algo la organización de las host, esa primera impresión es supremamente importante. Lo demás fue excelente!!!
