    Food was delicious and half portions were fine unless you are really hungry. Service was only fair; the dishes were delivered as soon as they were ready (hot was hot and cold was cold), but our cocktails arrived after our salads and only after asking where they were. However, we’d definitely return!

    The food was fantastic. Their Spanish octopus appetizer was outstanding, along with the Diver Scallops and Chilean Bass. The server, Ricardo, was friendly and helpful. Definitely a keeper for dinner.

    Great service and location. Old fashion and key lime pie were outstanding. Sea bass was awesome but accompanying rice was okay.

    My hubby loves the baked scallops! Actually craves them so we try to come often. I love the clam chowder soup!! He also had the ahi tartar and I had the salad wedge. Our waiter was amazing too.
