"This place hands down has the best soup I jave eaten! It was SO good. Now ask if I remember the name of it haha! But I have posted a picture to show you all! The fish was really good also though and something id definitely order again! It wasnt dry and had just enough crunch on the outside for my liking. We finished our meal off with some sweet corn ice cream! Haha never heard of it so thought to try it out. It was good. Not my favorite but good. The staff was very friendly and attentive to everyone around! While we were eating the line got a little busy but the people had to wait maaaybe 10-15 mins. Not too long. Would highly recommend!"

"I had a lovely meal on Valentine’s Day. I started with a half order of guacamole (pay attention because it’s a lot) and a lovely glass of white wine. I ordered the grilled shrimp which came with the usual vegetables and rice but the vegetables were perfectly cooked and the shrimp were lovely and bathed in a butter/wine sauce that was just delicious. The shrimp were sweet, the butter was, did I mention the butter? Get some bread to go with it! I got some sweet corn ice cream to go and got out of there for about $575. Going back again soon. Best meal I’ve had in town."

"I've walked by this restaurant so many times and finally tried it out, it did not disappoint! Love the atmosphere, the staff are all very kind, the seafood was amazing and FRESH most importantly. We had the red snapper (very popular) and the coconut shrimp, there was nothing left on our plates, that says it all."

"Came here as part of a tour group and we had the fish ceviche tostadas and octopus with garlic sauce on bread. The octopus is a main dish but they made it into an appetizer for us. I also got the hibiscus tea. I really enjoyed the good, the different sauces and the overall atmosphere. Best thing was that the prices were very reasonable!"
