I had a pleasant experience. I was with my family, and it was a good ambiance. I ordered the salmon, and the plating had a spicier sauce that I had to stop partaking in as it was too hot for me. Overall, the Restaurant threw in a cake to honor my MBA completion, and I thought that was such a sweet touch. Thank you to the staff.

Service started a little slow, but our server had many tables and it's a Saturday night in DC. Fine after he turned some tables. Food was excellent and came out at a nice pace. Look forward to coming back!

The decor, variety of seating choices (e.g., booth, high top, regular, bar), and ambience captivated us when we entered (and this was only the lower level/1st floor). The food was authentic Latin cuisine, fresh, and well presented. We highly recommend this restaurant!
