Ignore the 2 earlier reviews done many months ago when they opened, these are not accurate today. Food, service, value and experience were ALL EXCELLENT. We enter and the dining room was empty. The hottest asked if we'd like to sit inside or out, we asked her recommendation and followed here to the outdoor patio where there were numerous people, a bar and live music. WOW, were we surprised. And it just kept getting better. A basket of bread was served with four types of sauces, wine was great, food was even better. Of note, we appeared to be the ONLY tourist here. The crowd seemed local, families and upscale. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Do not order takeout! (Especially during Pandemic)…read more I placed an order for pickup, when I got there the hadn't even placed it in the system. Both waiters that where there dissapeared the whole 40 minutes I was left waiting, without any explination. When they finally came back, they didn't even apologize and were very condescending. It's ridiculous they couldn't even bother to aknowledge the situation. During Pandemic they should be on top of it when it comes to takeout orders!Such a shame since food is good, and if you dine-in it is always a great experience.

They have a wide selection of items and is a great restaurant for a large party. I ordered the salmon dinner. Each meal is served with their house salad. The dressing they use is delicious! It's a honey mustard base but it's not overpowering and is very light and refreshing. If you get anything from this review please please please try the crujiente de platano for dessert! It's so delicious, has great texture from the crunchy cookie/wafer crujiente, and is still very light! It was definitely the table's show stopper for the evening. The service is incredible. They are generous and very attentive. They have menus in both English and Spanish. I believe our waiters name was Alejandro. He was very kind and did his best to communicate with us in casual conversation throughout the evening. I'd highly recommend this establishment!

Always a favorite with the business men and late dinners. They have a vast wine selection and tequilas. Service is fast and efficient. They start you off with complimentary fresh baked bread that is crispy outside and soft inside and dipping sauces. For lunch I enjoy their sangria made with berries wine and tequila. Its very refreshing and light. Great ambiance in Plaza Gourmeteria with ample parking. Bummer here is traffic sometimes. There are a couple locations all with excellent service. Today I was around this side of town and stopped here. But you can also eat at Plaza Andares and Punto Sao Paulo. Come hungry and enjoy. I never make it to dessert lol. :)
