    This was my husband’s and I first time at this specific location and it was AMAZING! We were celebrating a late Valentines. The ambiance of the restaurant is gorgeous. The valet was friendly and costs $15. We was greeted by a nice man entering the restaurant whom held the door for us which was nice. We arrived early for our reservations so we had to wait a little but that’s okay. We enjoyed the lounge / bar area. The noise level was a little over moderate but not too loud. There was great music and people dancing. The vibes were there. Everyone looked happy. Shortly after, we were seated and the staff at the front were super friendly. We were in section D which was nice we can see the city line and it wasn’t too noisy. The tables are a bit small and close together but we made the best of it. It was cozy and romantic. We were sat next to a nice couple that actually interacted with us so it wasn’t so bad. Our waitress Kaylee was the BEST! She was very friendly and knowledgeable. Her aura was sweet and warm. She definitely has great customer service and we wish her all the best. She was very attentive and efficient. Thank you !!! :) The food was DELICIOUS! My husband ordered the roast pork with yellow rice and I ordered the skirt steak with black rice. The food was flavorful. The drinks were tasty and gets you “nice”. My husband had 2 Long Island iced teas and tropical storm drink. I had 2 pretty in pinks. We loved that managers came around to shake our hands and make sure we were well cared for. The music was a variety types of music. Had us dancing in our seats lol - we enjoyed our on the house coquito shots! It was so tasty! Overall we had a great time and we will definitely be back! (For dessert too lol) Thank you so much!!!!!!

    This was our second time here. It was just as great as the first time. The food and ambiance was great. What made it extra special was our waitress Jade. She was awesome. She was attentive,our water cups were always full and she was very patient in explaining dishes and drinks to us. She even swapped out one drink my wife didn't like at no extra cost or hassle. Jade made our Valentine's dinner that much special. She even took pictures for us.
