An exceptional dining experience right in the middle of the San Sebastián Festival. The staff delivered on every front, offering impeccably crafted drinks, a breathtaking view, and an atmosphere that felt both elegant and enchanting. The cuisine was nothing short of extraordinary, and the attentive service put it over the top. This is a place that effortlessly blends sophistication with a touch of magic—a true gem that leaves a lasting impression. Don’t rush it. You will miss the amazing ambience!

Drinks and appetizer were good. The main entree was bad and not many options. The chillo frito no have condiments (ej. Salt) and the steak taste old as smell not good. The mofongo with shrimps was very spicy and do not have the option to remove the sauce.

I went here once before and really liked it. I recently went back and the food quality went way down. I had the lobster toast and it was not really special. The pork belly was overly saucy. The streak tartar and caviar was nothing special and didn’t taste that great compared to other caviar I’ve had. The ONLY good dish we had was the shrimp empanadas. Very tasty and crispy. Overall very overpriced for most items and it was very low quality. Disappointed in the date night vibes it gave. After spending over $100 we still needed to go eat after that meal as it didn’t fill us and it was not good
