    The food was delicious, well-served! It tastes like home, for those of us from Latin America, and it was nice to try typical desserts from Venezuela (delicious!). Everybody was kind and gentle, specially our server Manoli. We felt welcomed and are definitely coming back! Thank you :)

    We went there for the South African Lobster tails. It did not disappoint. We had brussels sprouts and truffle mac and cheese as our sides. The brussels sprouts did come out a little cold and they immediately gave us a fresh hot plate of brussels sprouts. They even took it off the bill. We ordered two dirty martinis with blue cheese stuffed olives. I forgot they are known for their old fashioned so I will order those next time. A little bit too dirty for me (too much olive juice). We had banana fosters for dessert. The absolute BEST banana fosters I have EVER had. The cake was absolutely delicious. They had a nice flame going around it. A definite must restaurant to go to.
