Excellent service!! Even though there were quite a few people waiting, the transition was quick. The attention of the waiters at They give you suggestions on dishes, house specialties and drinks I have gone on several occasions. I always choose different dishes and everything is exquisite

Reservations are needed here but it’s absolutely worth taking your time to book and come down and enjoy the delicious food and drinks and outstanding service. My cousin picked the perfect place for this family reunion we had here yesterday! Zenaida was our server she made us feel super good her welcoming was so sweet...starters the house offers a deliciously spicy seafood broth with bread or saltine crackers for you to enjoy while food is being made. They have an enormous amount of different drinks to choose from we had Margaritas Mango, strawberry, lemon, tamarind,maracuya and also Pina colada and horchatas. Our main dishes were all absolutely beautiful delicious and fresh! You have ti we all order different things to give each other a chance to try, but there’s so much to choose mainly seafood but there’s other things for those who don’t like seafood also so don’t get discouraged. The deep fried fish chicharron platter is stunning the way the serve it, it’s a huge red snapper curled up and deep fried some of the meaty fish has been cut into big chunks for you to enjoy dipping into their side of guacamole, whole red snappers cooked and steamed with a huge portion of mixed seafood is also so yummy this comes wrapped in foil they open it right in front of you! The coconut shrimp are good crispy and delicious...their garlic fish filets served with mashed potatoes and spaghetti cut veggies looked so tasty, the Steak Alambres is thick chunks of grilled steak sauteed in lots of colorful green peppers and onions and melted Oaxaca cheese on top served with tortillas. I picked their jumbo shrimp with sauteed mushrooms and garlic lots of azafran shrimp comes with the head still attached and served with a delicious crispy salad that has cranberries and peanuts and goat cheese with a tangy dressing and a side order of rice with veggies. They do have a kids menu, my nephew enjoyed some chicken nuggets and fries...there’s also a great kids zone for the little ones to enjoy playing in while adults are being entertained with live music and and abundance of great vibes. Cuban decor throughout the beautiful restaurant and it’s definitely a great choice to come celebrate a loved ones birthdays or any event. So if you happen to be in Mexico and you want some delicious and exquisite fresh seafood and more this is the place..coffees and desserts are amazing too their tiramisu and cappuccino coffees are great delight I highly recommend this place for anyone to come try and enjoy the great service and tasty cocktails and outstanding food choices the only downside is they only accept cash and deposit into their accounts which while traveling I find that a bit uncomfortable especially if you’re wanting to treat your family while you’re visiting from international travel. Lucky enough their was cash available prices are very reasonable for the portions served and once you do the math you know you’re getting a deal while traveling and splurging family and yourself so don’t forget make your reservations look at the menu and pricing and bring cash...I’ve expressed that need of changing that for travelers in my opinion Zenaida Gracias por tu excelente servicio a clientes fue mi primera vez de comer aqui y definitivamente no sera la ultima vez...todo absolutamente todo nos encanto desde el caldo de cortesia y cada uno de nuestros platillos exquisitos deliciosos estuvieron para chuparse los dedos y tu hospitalizada nos hizo sentirnos muy agusto y gozar el ambiente y musica al igual disfrutar nuestras conversaciones en esta reunion familiar que ya nos hacia mucha falta a ambas familias. Todo me encanto menos el detalle de no poder pagar por tarjeta especialmente si uno viene viajando y no esta acostumbrado hacer transferencias me informaron hasta cuando hibamos a pagar gracias a Dios llevamos dinero en efectivo pero ese siento yo que para extranjeros seria la unica faya del Restaurante cuando uno de visita quiere invitar o pagar la cuenta para nuestros familiares de Mexico espero Me entiendan por la seguridad de uno.
