All were excellent especially the seafood and very unexpectedly large portions- so lots to take home. Our waiter was easy to work with as we were having fun and requesting information about many items. The owner stopped by as well. We hope to return soon.

                                                            Loved this restaurant before Covid and just now returned to find everything just as wonderful as before. Pollo Agra Dolce is my choice always. Others had pasta. Everyone was happy and eager to return. A++++++++

                                                            It was good. The service was friendly and prompt but the food… it was good but not great. I’m looking for that second mouthful and I didn’t get that here.
