   We went specifically for the dueling pianos — not what we anticipated as it was more of a Cuban party vibe with backing tracks and keyboards rather than pianos, and very limited piano playing. But we enjoyed ourselves as a cultural experience with many people dancing and singing to the music. Food was excellent. Pricing however was too high compared to equivalent dining/cocktails across the street.

   Second visit here. Food was very good and service was also very good. Missed the cabaret/show - guess they have that at weekends now. Still, a good atmosphere.

   This place was amazing the food was outstanding and the atmosphere is great, some of the staff working the floor should smile a bit more I know it’s hard working in the back but that shouldn’t reflect on the floor, customers like me pick up on that. Overall great restaurant.

   Our evening with the family was absolutely spectacular! The show and music was fantastic and the food was outstanding! Our server did a phenomenal job serving 21 people at our table and didn’t miss a beat! Great and friendly service and the entertainment was amazing. My family and friends from out of town were impressed with the food and ambience! Fun place to spend the evening with a Latin beat!

   This is an extremely lively place. Think of going to a loud wedding venue or similar. The entertainment was excellent during dinner, but just know if you go you cannot talk to the people in your party. It's a great place to get up and dance to some salsa, music and other kind of Spanish music. The maître d' was very accommodating and sat in a nice booth in the back a little bit away from the noise. The food was excellent a little pricey, but very good. Our service was fair. I decided on ordering a Spanish wine by the glass. after I ordered it, it took the server about 20 minutes to come back to tell me that she didn't think they had it, and then another 20 minutes to come back and tell me they didn't have it. While everyone else was enjoying their drinks, I was just sitting there. We were celebrating some birthdays and at the end of the meal, they came out with a big Roman candle and desserts with happy birthday written on the plate. When we got the bill, they not only charged us for the dessert, They charged us for the Roman candles . The desserts for the birthday were charged for which was fine but then they charged us six dollars each for the Roman candles. Something we did not ask for. Overall, it was a one time experience if you're looking for a place for a dancing and live music with some good Cuban food. This is your place.

   I originally booked an outdoor table but they seated us inside. Initially not an issue but then the band started and the music was so insanely loud. I did not see anywhere on the reservation page that stated music would be happening during our reserved time. We got our food and couldn’t even speak to one another without shouting at the top of our lungs. So I went and asked if there was anything they could do and they offered to move us outside, which helped tremendously. I apologized for not correcting the seating issue sooner but they said it wasn’t a problem. They kindly moved all our food to the outside table and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was fantastic so just be aware that at least on Friday nights they have musical performances and while it’s entertaining, it is unbelievably loud inside the restaurant.

    The cod croquettes appetizer was mealy and watery; the seafood was overcooked in the paella which was not seasoned well. Happy hour drinks were good. Our server Cindy was great. Manager was shocked when we gave her our rating of three. Usually a comp or deduction would be applied, but nothing. Even after requesting a table for the following week to return with visiting friends, still no joy. Winter Travelers
