Not sure what the reviews were talking about but this food was just mediocre. Churasco steak was tough and in flavorful. Lobster had been boiled in an oily substance and the drawn butter was not butter at all. White sangria was watered down.

We ordered kids pasta, empanadas and paella Then we haven’t seen anyone in an hour I understand paella takes time, but kids pasta and empanadas? Empanadas we’re ok, but paella was one of the most disgusting dishes I’ve ever had (and I grew up in post-soviet Russia) - rise was burnt on the bottom and undercooked on the top, all seafood in paella tasted like rubber. And on top of that that charged us a 20% service fee.

Daughter fell asleep and didn’t eat, overall lost appetite waiting for so incredibly long…drinks and food were good but too long to wait. Even getting the bill took 20 min…told they were understaffed although kept seating people…

The food was pretty good. The seafood paella had good flavor and it was not overcooked. However, there is an image of their snapper that supposedly includes a red sauce, but we were told AFTER we received our food that they have never served it with the sauce. The mixed drinks are subpar, but the bartender's efforts are commendable. As for the noise, there were two dogs present. One of them was quiet the entire time (he was awesome), the other dog was not. I had to get the manager to address the problem something no guest should be forced to endure.
