   Gave me my correct bill of $109 then took my card and swiped it on their portable machine. As the server bolted away I got a notification from my credit card that they charged $308. The manager fixed it right away, but the way the server moved so quickly through the screens on the payment system and ran away so quickly after I signed leaves me suspicious.

   Food was excellent. Extremely loud music making it difficult to have conversation. Seemed a bit short on servers. Took a fair amount of time to get drinks / water. Make sure to ask about prices on drinks. Ended up paying $41 for a margarita because I asked for a Grand Marnier floater which I’m convinced was not in the drink (at least not as a floater). I asked the waiter and he insisted it was in there. Live and learn. It’s our first night in Miami. Definitely worth going for the good.

   Enjoyed our visit. Only drawback was length of time it took for meals to come out of kitchen, but when it did it was delicious

   Food was delicious! Location was great! The price of the food and the service was not worth it!

   Great food, lovely servers. We went a little early which is why it was slightly quiet. Classic margarita was great. Highly recommend!

    We xome a group of us every year to celebrate in April. The staff are extraordinarily welcoming and it’s become a tradition. Cuban food in Miami Beach (believed it or not) is hit or miss. Some Cuban restaurants “modify “ the recipes for the tourists and to cut costs and forget their Cuban roots. Not so here. They are the best in South Beach.
