Once our entrees arrived, the two waitstaff who had introduced themselves as Ernesto and Tomas, never checked in to see if the food was satisfactory or to offer refills for our clearly empty drinks. What made the experience even more frustrating was noticing that adjacent tables, which were seated after us, received far more attentive service. Despite being at Table 57, located right next to the kitchen, where the waitstaff passed by us multiple times, they never stopped to check on us. We understand that restaurants can get busy, but this level of neglect is unacceptable. Basic attentiveness is essential to a good dining experience, and we hope management addresses these issues to ensure better service for all guests in the future.

Grilled octopus appetizer is a must and Chilean Sea Bass was phenomenal. Serving portions are large so sadly we didn’t have room for dessert. Good option for a special occasion.
