    It was a very nice evening and delicious food. Plus, an entertainment that was happening at the Lobby added a special note to the evening. Very nice place and great atmosphere!

    We had a great time! Jose H. was a very friendly, helpful, and engaging server. My partner and I split 3 different and delicious sushi rolls and enjoyed the live music from the cabaret.

    I had to go to the bar to order drinks 4 times, they had no change to provide. The waitress never came to check in in our group. The beer and drinks were way overpriced. The sushi was good. The show was great! Other than those two things, nothing really special. I wouldn’t go back.

    Melina León muy pobre su show. El sonido malo, la forma en que acomodaron el espacio, peor y si esperabas la Melina de siempre pues no, ahora es baladista. GAD había DJ y otra orquesta para amenizar la noche.

    If there are activities such as live music for which you pay a ticket for the show and you pay to have a table seating; you expect to be able to see the show. There were people who did not paid for seat and were standing in front of us who paid double for entrance and seating. The Melina Leon show was really good; I wish I could have seen her without obstruction. Also, they need to have more servers. Ours was fantastic but was tending too many tables.

    I made a reservation to see Melina Leon, but I got a table at the lobby where we couldn't watch the show. The manager, Maria, was very empathetic and took steps to accommodate us. Fortunately, she was able to get us a table that fulfilled our expectations. Not only that, later during the evening, she came by to ensure we were doing well. Jesús Hurtado, our waiter, was very pleasant and efficient. He suggested some plates on the menu when he saw us hesitating with the order. These two employees achieved making what started as an unpleasant evening into an excellent night out.

    I have to say compared to the pictures and videos. It is not the same. A bit underwhelming the band played 3 songs between 10-10:15pm and they packed up and left. So it was a huge disappointment
