The food is not real latiamerican type. I went three times for dinner and the food was OK but for the price asked; meaning the value was not there!!! Also the service is not as good. Drinks are good and at a fair price.

The food was excellent. The service was fabulous. I really could like this restaurant. But there was a DJ playing Hip Hop and R &B in the bar area. I came in at 8pm on a Wednesday night, for a quiet dinner. Jazz or Salsa would have been appropriate to the atmosphere. Everything was perfect, except the music.

Need to try at least once: The food was great. I ordered the clam tapas (sauteed in garlic & herbs) which were great. Enough to for an entree. I also ordered the Empanadillas (appetizer). It's a little pricey; and I don't think it was worth the value (but close). Great atmosphere and service.
