Jam was the best server I've ever had. We went to have a sisters night out and to celebrate our youngest sister's 21st birthday. The food was fabulous. We let Jam pick out menu for us and he really tailored the menu to us. Our mojitos were well paired with our dinner. We will be back again and again.

Mojito Mondays are the best. Half price Mojitos, including pitchers or glasses, and appetizer specials. Have enjoyed great food and drink every visit. Looks like it gets busy but they have fast service and a good amount of seating so we never so a big line at the door.

Our waiter was excellent; his recommendations after asking us a few food likes/dislikes was spot on. We enjoyed several tapas plates and various drinks.

Great food and service. All the dishes we ordered were delicious. Very different flavors. The waiter was a little controlling over what to order, seemed more of a demand to order a dish than recommendation, however, the food he "demanded" were all fantastic!

Came here for a birthday on a Tuesday night and pretty empty but food and ambience was good though not great. Our waiter seemed very disinterested which was disappointing and the lack of people made it a lil boring but maybe it's better on Monday nights when they have half price drinks. I would give it another chance or go with a bigger group.

Kind all across the map. Thought the empanatas were very good, chicken wings good, ceviche OK. Waiter forgot to bring the scallops. For entries, thought the the braised pork and cod were above average, the braised pork OK. Ordered sorbet for dessert, and after a long wait, were told they didn't have any "ice cream." Check took a long time for change to show up. May come again, or look for other Cuban restaurants to compare.
