Took a good friend out for her birthday and it was our first time dining here after seeing a show at the Broward Center just a short walk away. It was absolutely amazing! The ambience was classy, quiet and festive for the holidays. Our server was amazing and he even fulfilled my request of a birthday song/acknowledgement with a candle on my friend's dessert! The food was delicious and the Dinner with Benefits Menu was great value for money!! Will definitely come here again!! Highly recommend going here!!

Spectacular as always. There were six of us for dinner on Monday night and they handled it effortlessly. The food was spot on as always and the service quick and attentive. The live entertainment was quality and of course the "entertainment" outside was exciting as well. Although ultimately pricey, it is well worth the cost. We've been here a number of times from Boca Raton and will continue to take the trip. We had out of town guests and they were blown away. Keep it up Ibiza!
