    Beautiful place, but it was loud! Both inside and outside. We kept asking the waitress and hostess to lower the music. We couldn’t have a conversation even sitting next to each other…. It was like nightclub volume! Food was tasty. From the appetizers- we had empanadas, both ceviches, truffle fries, and sliders… we had the salmon, parrillada, stuffed chicken for entrees- all very good! It was a little overpriced considering we could have gone the the neighboring restaurants in the neighborhood for the same food and less $$. I guess you’re paying for the ambience. I give 3.5-4 stars just because of how loud it was. Bring Tylenol. Servise was ok … kinda slow. But the girls were very nice, polite and professional. I guess they were super busy because we had to keep an eye out for them to order or get an extra drink. Overall, it was a nice time with good food and great drinks!! They were superb!!!
