What Diners Say

★★★★★ Trevor Do 4 years ago

Amazing. Super experience. The cocktails were amazing. We ordered four, two each. Tried a variety. The food was spectacular. The quality and quantity was perfect. The service and outdoor diner was above expectations. The pattella was more than enough, the pork belly was succulent and flavorful.

★★★★ Gralyn Jacques 2 years ago

I like the food bar. Alcohol selection is a bit limited, but over nice staff. Only been here once for a going away party for a friend. Crowd was light, friendly, and liked to dance. So that's always fun. Bartenders are great!

★ "Worst chicken corn soup ever! Very watery and tasteless! Can't believe they can't even make proper soup 😫

★★★ Tom Elrod 7 years ago

Neat little place where not many other restaurants are nearby. Decent food. Ok selection of beer. Friendly staff... when they’re actually talking to you. Unfortunately, a couple bartenders oddly ignore you... one was busy texting with her back to the customers.

★★★★★ Mila Gelman 9 months ago

It takes a few minutes to order your food or drinks when it’s busy, but that’s part of the fun. Great Cuban social dance classes there too, on the 3rd Friday of every month, offered by RuedaConRitmo! So much fun, and great vibes!
