    Enjoyed the live entertainment! The salad was very good, however my friend, who’d ordered the same, and I were disappointed that both of the dressings were sweet and there was no savory dressing. Not even oil and vinegar. We asked for lemon, which was better than nothing. And, not the restaurants fault, but just too hot on the patio, so I wouldn’t/couldn’t sit out there again. Which means we couldn’t enjoy the live entertainment, which was the main reason we were there. The fan close to our table didn’t oscillate, so that was no help.

    What a fantastic menu! I ordered the tallarines verdes with lomo saltado and it was superb. Topped it off with a wonderful slice of banana cake. Excellent food and a wonderful, relaxing ambience as well (and great decor, too).

    Read about recent gluten-free additions to the menu, but was informed by server they were abandoned due to costs. As a result, the only gluten-free items on the menu are ceviche and salads. Yawn. Ceviche was very good, but can’t return without more GF choices. Service was also very slow considering how busy the restaurant was.

    Had a nice experience at Cafe de Martin. Food and drinks were good. The entire party never been before and were all satisfied. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. We ended up taking pics in the garden area which was lovely! Will return.

    My first issue was we had a reservation and were sat at a tiny table on the bar side of restaurant with absolutely no room at all. I was bumped multiple times by staff and costumers trying to get thru that NARROW opening. The people waiting outside in front of us in line had no reservation and were sat at a bigger table. Secondly our waitress was almost impossible to hear as she spoke so softly and her knowledge of the menu was shockingly uninformed. It seemed like it was an inconvenience for her to be there.Thirdly our expensive seafood entree was seriously lacking what was represented on the menu. There were no scallops at all in the dish, and only two shrimp it was mostly the over abundance of under seasoned fish was disheartened. On the upside the two appetizers were very good and the dessert was the highlight of our dining experience.

    The food is always fantastic and the atmosphere is ok inside, but fantastic outside. The servers are always nice, but it's always a bit slow, so be patient.
