    My skirt steak was cooked to perfection. My husband's steak was overcooked he felt. He was not as high on the restaurant but I would go back.

    So many delicious things to choose from on the menu. Everything was great. Don’t skip dessert. The flan and the chocolate mousse were both delicious.

    Food and service were very good. If you are seated in the room with the high ceilings and faux fireplace, it is extremely loud when busy and you will not be able to have any type of normal conversation with your dinner companion(s).
