    We were four people celebrating my birthday. My waiter was Maykel and he was fantastic. Everyone who works there has a great attitude, all willing to help the other, which is very unusual for a restaurant like this. It was a pleasant surprise and made my birthday super special. The food is meticulously done in such nice taste. Everything has a beautiful presentation. This is not the restaurant where you come starving because the portions are small but delicious. Every bite is an explosion of taste in your mouth. We ordered 12 different appetizers all amazing. The most impressive thing about this restaurant was the service and the energy inside. It’s just a great ambience. There was a fire dancer. The mood is fun. Thank you so much for making my birthday special.

    When Advertising Golden hour until 8pm, you commit to take order until that time. We arrived at 6pm ordered drinks and food and paid the check around 7:20pm. We decided to hang around some more and ordered 3 prossecos and crispy rice salmon at 7:34pm. The server indicated to us the golden hour was until 7pm. We asked to speak to the manager who hardly speaks English and confirmed despite showing the menu scanned from the table, that he was not allowing for us to take advantage of the specials. After insisting he said “ok I give you another 20 minutes!! We still paid full price on the drinks!!!!! Change your menu and get your people trained on how to make customers happy.
