The service was great and really attentive from the moment we walked in til the moment we walked out, we were certainly well taken care of! The music and energy was so lively, it created a great environment for having a fun night out. The drinks were really good! I really loved the mojitos, I had strawberry and passion fruit mojitos. I loved that they came with a sugarcane which was a nice touch. I had the tuna ceviche which was served in a coconut shell and the portion was really large for an appetizer. It was really fresh and I loved the coconut flavor which I’ve never had with ceviche before. I also had the salmon and cilantro rice and the cilantro rice was absolutely delicious! The salmon was cooked exactly as I asked and was well seasoned. I would definitely come back for happy hour or a girls night out!
