Open Table let me make this reservation. When our party of 6 people arrived, we were told that this restaurant isn't on Open Table and they had NO reservation for us... They were very nice and found a table for us but we had to wait 35 minutes.. Now I will be anxious about making a reservation on Open Table... do you mis-represent the restaurants?????

The first dish I ordered was the first dish on the menu. It was a French fries, onions, beef, tomatoes. My comment on the dish was that it was too salty. I also mentioned this to the waitress. Her comment was oh really. I saw other diners eat some seafood so I ordered a seafood chowder to take back home with me. Wow, was it delicious. I should have eaten this at the restaurant.

My girlfriends and I went here for a 4:30pm get together. While sitting in my parked car at the restaurant, I noticed that you enter the parking lot one way and exit out the other end. I saw vehicles driving up the exit lane and then trying to turn around once they realized that a car had entered from the other way. The parking spaces needs to be clearly marked as do the entrance/exit way. Once I got inside, I stood by the counter assuming that they would seat me only to have a young lady, possibly a waiter/server walk pass me twice without saying anything. Finally, she stopped at the counter and asked if I’m ordering. I told her that I need a table for 3. The young lady told me that I can sit anywhere. They should have a sign informing patrons of this. It’s a small dining area and appeared to have only 2 waiters/servers at that time. It appears that there is an upstairs dining since I saw a group of business men leaving out with to go orders. We sat at a table for 4 and another waiter/server came over to take our orders. She was more polite, friendly and even recommended some items for us to try. We started with appetizers first. The seafood ceviche was a very shareable size as was the yucca fries with yellow sauce. For our entree’s we tried the shrimp in yellow sauce, half chicken with french fries which came with a side salad. We also ordered a side of rice and maduros(sweet plantains). After eating the yucca fries, I barely made it through the shrimps and plantains. The food was inexpensive and portions were great. My girlfriends couldn’t finish their plates so they took it to go. Our server is the one who made our dining experience pleasant.
