    Initially we waited a little while to be served, but soon after service greatly improved. We ordered and were quickly brought appetizers and then the entrees. All enjoyed their entrees. The lobster quesadillas which on the special menu were delicious. The desserts we shared of churros and tres leches were very tasty. Excellent Mexican cuisine enjoyed by all.

    I always enjoy coming to Dunns River. The music is good, the food is amazing and it’s the only sit down Caribbean experience that is top tier compared to the normal hole in the wall establishments with the plex glass separating the customers. Home run for date night. My only wish is that the music isn’t so loud all the time. It’s so hard to have a conversation. I stayed away from Friday & Saturday and picked a weekday date night thinking it would be a quieter background noise kind of night. Nope. We were still shouting at each other. After our meal we ending up walking around in the rain so we could hear each other lol. Something to consider for management maybe.
