“ The food was really good, we got some tacos and cocktails. The cocktails have funny names and are delicious. The service was incredible. The waiters were attentive and kind the whole time. The ambiance was great, good music, and a good place to go dance to Latin music. ”
“ The bartender did my drink rite on the spot!.The Quesadilla appetizers were delightful! let's not forget about the Chorizo! ”
“ Great food but the a bit expensive. The cocktails are amazing as well but the music is mostly always too loud. It's good for groups and they have had outdoor seating in the past. ”
“ at first the waitress wasn't helping us and the place was pretty empty, but once she did she was taking care of us! We got a pitcher of red sangria - delicious! guacamole comes w/ both plantains and yuca chips - recommended! pulled pork sandwiches on happy hour were also a must try, we ordered another round (also they were piping hot which i LOVED) wings (are breaded to note) but also piping hot and crispy and seasoned perfect. We actually got them plain and asked for the sauce on the side - try it this way so the wings stay crispy! Also got this crabmeat, chorizo, bacon guacamole that was stuffed in an avocado - we didnt know how it would be and ordered on a whim, but it was also great ”
“ Great quality food and staff is super friendly. This is a great happy hour meal. The price and food thumbs up . ”
“ The good: This is the spot if you want good appetizers and great Spanish music (old school salsa, merengue, bachata). Everything in town was fully booked so we tried our luck here getting a reservation at 5pm for 7pm (for 2 of us) and we were accommodated. I'm not a big meat or seafood eater - but I was intrigued by their Aguacate Relleno (stuffed avocado with crab meat & bacon) and it did not disappoint!! We loved the Mofonguitos too! Our main entrees were both big enough for 2 people (we could have totally just split one main dish). FYI - they add 18% gratuity. Our server was also quick and a good attendant. The bad: They lose a star for 1) their tropical sangria - a while pitcher did nothing for us and 2) their slick way of adding a $4.95 "non cash charge" on the receipt I needed to sign, without warning simply for paying with a debit card and not cash, which I think is total B.S.!!! I would have paid cash if they had forewarned us. ”
