    I love this place but I only dine there when Barbara Zamora is there! She's spectacular. So much fun. Wait staff could be a bit more attentive but the food is great too.

    I have been a loyal customer of this restaurant for many years, but the overall experience has significantly declined. The quality of the food has worsened, the service is poor, and the presence of homeless individuals outside the establishment negatively impacts the atmosphere.
