TERRIBLE! It pains me as a Puerto Rican to rate one of our own restaurants poorly but this place was just that bad. The waiters completely ignored us and we had to have the manager come take our order. It is never a good sign when the manager who takes your order doesn't write any of it down. 1/2 hr later, a waiter came to our table telling us they "accidentally" dropped our entire order on the floor and we had to re-order our food. The food came out roughly an hour later and it was NOT worth the wait. They definitely sacrificed quality of food and service for decor. I'll never go there again

  • my son took my wife and I there last night for our anniversary. as we waited to be seated two of their employees got into a bloody fist fight. i had to jump in to break it up. my wife and son's girl friend were horrified. the manager came up front but never apologized to or seemed to care that the affect on his customers. The food was great. the waiter was great. the bus boy needs training. He kept reaching across the table. Never going back.
