    The food was OK, nothing special, but the service was terrible. The portions are small and expensive. Would not go back.

    Great vibes and good food. While service could be better, they make things right when they are moving slow.

    The rooftop view was a nice getaway but the service and food was lacking. The taste of the food was bland but edible. We were planning to have dinner there but the appetizers kept us from staying for it.

    This place is scammers! We went on 13th of October, at the evening. When we first came they didn’t say a word about payment types until they brought the check. They don’t accept cash or tap payments, we had only cash with us. They finally we figured out how to pay, it was around 164$, but the next day I see that they charged us 214$! This is insane, when I tried to call them no one answered. I would never come back to this place!

    The esthetic was definitely there but the food was very poor. The appetizer crab cake was good (the base salad should have flavor since it’ll add texture to the crab cake), as I cut into my pork chop it crumbled like an eraser (no flavor at all), the chimichurri was horrible! I make this on a regular so I know the texture and taste and it was overloaded in oil with no flavor, no taste of garlic at all! Only think that was good was the rice & beans and the sweet plantains. Rice could’ve definitely be cooked a bit longer as well. Dessert were churros.. I’m not sure how you mess up on churros but these were OVERCOOKED to the point we couldn’t bite into them! I took one bite, my husband just touched them and only eating the few strawberries on top. Our server was amazing and explained different items on the menu, no issues at all. Would be come here again? Likely not. The drink wasn’t even tasteful, very bitter. You can only come here for maybe finger food and how nice the area & setup is. I came here before for a dinner party and didn’t like it but my husband wanted to try it out and wasn’t pleased with the outcome. Flavor in the food is really needed here, REALLY!

    I was pleasantly surprised by Sal y mar! Chef Jonathan and Chef Tony were able to make my food a certain way to accommodate food allergies which is always appreciated. But they also did it happily with a smile on their face! Not all restaurants are willing to accommodate to I truly appreciate this. The food was good, the server was very nice, and the restaurant is beautifully decorated! We sat inside and even though there’s loud music outside, you can barely hear it inside which is great if you’re going to be talking with friends! Great music outside too,

    The drinks were great but the food was not. I ordered a filet and it was the worst steak I have ever had.

    The restaurant has nice decor. Daniel was a good server, but both dinners and our shared appetizer were LOADED with salt, almost to the point where that were inedible. There was a group of young women there, about 30, who made so much noise I couldn't hear myself think. Not my idea of a fine restaurant. Red wine should be served chilled, especially in a high end restaurant. Room temp in Florida doesn't do it.
