    Food was great, but make sure to ask for an itemized receipt before adding tip. We were 5 of us and ended up with double-tipping them. $60 tip for $170 bill, not fun.

    First, the food was fine, but nothing special. My biggest complaint is the method of presentation. Your steak is brought to you on a hot stone so you can have it cooked the way you want. Sounds like a great idea, right? Wrong. For starters, the server tells you to slice off a piece of your steak and how long to cook each side to get the temperature you want, but what about the rest of the steak? It’s still setting on the same hot rock cooking while you eat each bite. I like my steak medium rare and the one I ordered came to me almost entirely done to my preference. So, while eating it, it became a piece of shoe leather from sitting on the cooking surface while I ate it. Bringing a plate to put the steak on could’ve avoided this problem. My single biggest complaint is the fact that the dining room becomes the kitchen with this method of presentation. The floor was slick from grease spatter and by the end of the meal so was our table and my shirt. So, don’t wear anything you care about here. There’s a reason grill cooks wear aprons, it’s messy. Imagine coming here for the first time with your special someone and leaving with them covered in grease.

    Service was very slow. The steak had way too much fat and grizzle. We were 3 quarters of the way through the meal before we could get our ice teas. Not impressed

    We went here for our anniversary dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it. This was the first time ever being at a restaurant like this and will likely go back. The service was okay (didn't really check on us much) but we received our food fast and it was delicious.

    This place is definitely worth trying. The stone grill is a fun new experience. My husband had a sirloin and I had the lamb. The steaks come out on the stone and the staff show you the best method for cutting and searing on the stone. The plantains were also sweet & delicious. We also had the chorizo empanadas.... great flavor. Save room for dessert! Spanish churros & ice cream!

    They’re obviously understaffed, but they’re trying.
