the quality and authenticity of the food was impressive. everything came out hot and quickly. the garlic shrimp was so delicious and it paired so well with the tostones and fried yuca. everything was such a hefty portion for the price too. the service was also great. i'll definitely be coming back :D
LOVE THIS PLACE! parking is easy, place is clean and quaint. service is great and food is awesome! we both had the Grilled Churrasco, the dinner and lunch portion.
Always been curious about this place, finally stopped by for dinner. Fabulous!!! We'll be back soon to try other menu items! Pleasantly surprised!
Excellent food. Kinda off the beaten path but well worth the trip. The parillado plate was a great combination of different meats! Short rib, skirt steak, chicken, sausage, blood sausage , other guys tried the braised shortrib, the tilapia. All of the dishes were very good. Would recommend this place in a heartbeat
Service and food were outstanding here. The chicken with grilled seafood entree was very unique and also excellent. The atmosphere was fun and family friendly. We really enjoyed our appetizers, meals, and of course margaritas.
