El lugar super lindo, y la comida deliciosa las atencion exelente. Pero al ser un sitio pequeño la musica del DJ debe ser un poca menos alta.

We were a party of six and decided to order all plates to share because they all looked fantastic. We were not disappointed. The food was excellent. My favorites were the Edamane humus, Tchurrasco, and the sushi rolls. The waitress was super friendly and explained the dishes well.

We came here for a late dinner before a night out and it was EXACTLY what we were looking for. Great food that wasn’t too heavy, crowd/music were the perfect vibe, and our server Alexandra was amazing and tried her hardest to help us English speakers navigate the menu 😅 We all said we’d 1,000% come back here next time we travel to Puerto Rico! 🔥
