   The appetizers were delicious,the actual food or entree not that much. The drinks were great. I will be back for appetizers and cocktails.

   Our server was excellent, but the food was not that well prepared. My husband got paella and the mussels were not cooked. Great place for a drink and the view, but not to eat.

   The salad with fruit and shrimp was really good. The chocolate cake was delicious.

   Although our waiter was kind and knowledgeable the food lacked flavor, with the exception of the empanadas. They were great! I ordered paella that lacked flavor and the seafood was overcooked. My grandson wanted a Cuban sandwich without mustard and pickles. We were told sandwiches could not be made to order because they are premade and just heated up. We knew they were working with a limited menu, but what was offered could have tasted better. I wouldn’t return for the food, but this is a great place for a drink, empanadas, and an absolutely spectacular mountain view.

   You really cannot beat this place for casual, fun, and great views!! Menu is pretty limited but what's there is really good and the prices for the atmosphere and location are fantastic.

   We were very excited about our dinner reservation before our trip to Asheville - we're always in search of good Cuban food. The restaurant was a little hard to find - no idea it is located in a hotel. We waited for 6-7 minutes at the host stand to be seated (not even acknowledged before seating). The menu is VERY limited - many of the offerings on the website are not available - no maduros, no yucca, etc. When I asked about the difference in menu, the waiter said that they still weren't getting deliveries since "the hurricane". Not sure about that one...... Food was just ok, service was very slow, the only ambience is the view - large windows allow good view of the mountains. There was a buffet setup on one side of the room - appears it is the breakfast room for the hotel. Not sure if we'd go back. Not great, not awful - just so-so.

   It just wasn’t anything special for the price of the food, nothing fancy or different about it. Just okay food that is over priced

   Service was good, everyone was so nice. Food was so, so and my goodness, it was TOO LOUD! If you want to hear your conversation, this is not the place to go.

    We had to wait a long time for food and drinks. The plantains were burnt and the black beans were not good.
