    I had the Salmone Entree, it was cooked perfectly and the taste was amazing, it came served on a bed of rice which complimented the meal nicely. I usually opt for the salmon dinner at most restaurants for the nutritional value and in historical comparison this was the best Salmon i have tasted. Additionally, our server was quick and made sure we had everything we needed.

    Todo estuvo muy agusto, solo algunos platillos de la comida no fueron del total agrado. El postre de Guava le falta sabor, el mesero César el comentamos y nos lo cambió el otro estuvo mejor. La música muy agusto a un nivel de ruido correcto.
