Do you want an incredible experience?? Do you want incredible food?? Are you ready to try new things?? STOP PLAYING AND COME AND DISCOVER WHAT I FOUND, a hidden gem in the community!!!! I can’t believe how good it was, I am still thinking about it and I tried it for the first time last month... YES! That is how good it was I can’t stop thinking about it or craving it, my respects to the Chef, although I am just a normal guy passing by I needed to take some time from my day to praise this place! It may get a little loud at night but you will indulge and reflect. You’re welcome by the way...

Absolutely loved our experience! The seafood was fresh and delicious, the prices were fantastic, and the atmosphere was perfect. Ricardo, our waiter, made the night even better with his excellent service. Highly recommend!

It was a fantastic experience, and the food was beyond delicious. From the salsa to the sauces and the main dishes, it was so good. By far one of the most delicious mariscos I have tried. The party atmosphere was pretty awesome when I went at night. Only gripe I had is there was no area that wasn't being blasted by the speakers to the point where I had to yell my order to the waiter and pretty much yell to have a conversation, and the one area that looked like it was a bit quite, they refused to have us sit there. Over al good experience and I will be trying lunch there for a hopefully more peaceful meal.

Today was our second visit. Our first visit was pleasant. The service provided by Christian was above and beyond, todays visit was also pleasant. Zenaida was also very good. She was attentive and very friendly. The food is refreshing and flavorful. The ambiance was ideal with non stop music.
