Amazing food, shrimps with rice and patacon, Three milks cake, and Potato Locro. All in abundance, amazing flavours and service.
Very good, had a nice Wednesday night buffet 15, very satisfied...
Excellent restaurant service, even though they got a mistake in the order, the waiter didn't charge it and all the time gave us an excellent service.
Staff was penomenal even though they spoke little English. Food was the best on Malecon.
The food here is very good. They have enough variety to please all family members from picky kids to adventurous eaters who want something more local. You can walk down the boardwalk to find other restaurants, but it really isn't necessary. The service is good. Having some Spanish is good when talking with the servers, but the menus are translated into English.
TOP service, delicious DISHES... Best recommended to eat on the terras during the evening.
