    It was very expensive and our food came in a plastic bowl. I would recommend it as a poolside restaurant. Service was very good although.

    We had a very good meal. The salmon tacos were amazing. We enjoyed a nice visit with friends over a leisurely lunch while sitting in the shade of a cabana - how perfect. We must do this again - and more often.

    One of us was vegan and they brought salmon tacos when we were excited to try the cauliflower. Waited 30 minutes for chocolate chips cookies. The bill we signed is not itemized which is odd.

    We had reservations for 11am expecting a brunch menu however we were surprised that there was only a lunch menu which began at 11am. Food was very good but wanted some brunch options

    Not a great new years dinner. One server for umpteen tables?? I felt bad for the sweet waitress who was clearly over her head. And the young bus boy who was literally running from the tables to the kitchen and back… It took forever to be served warm martinis. We were with good friends and made the most of it but sadly it was a bad night for chi chis.
