This cute little spot.. you would never know the food was phenomenal. It was downstairs essentially from where we were staying. They sometimes have live music too, although we didn't' get to see this. The grill has exceptional service and offers poolside dining during the day. It also has AMAZING beach views. Each morning, we enjoyed espressos before our walks.​ The food is outstanding. The steak was a highlight--perfectly cooked and flavorful. I tried the pesto salmon, and while the flavors were delightful, the salmon was slightly overcooked. The tempura was a standout--crispy, light, and not at all greasy. The bruschetta was also delicious. They have a huge menu and plenty to explore if you're staying for a while. Note: they are closed on Tuesdays! We were bummed about that, but happy to have had it one night during our stay!

A bottle of wine and our appetizer arrived promptly. The salad quickly followed. Then we waited. And watched the place get very busy. And waited. At 8:00 I called our waiter over and politely asked if our entrees were near. I was assured they were. At 8:30, I caught his attention and asked (with much frustration) what was going on. At 8:45 (2.5 hours after ordering), I told him to cancel our entrees and bring the check. At 9:00 pm we received our food. I first told him to take it back, but then relented. THREE hours after arriving. It's not the miss, it's the response. No one seemed to care at any point. The GM or chef didn't show up with an apology. No entrees were comped. This also happened to us last Valentine's Day when they were swamped. I told them I would never be back and promptly cancelled our reservations for today, Valentine's Day 2026. We have friends visiting over the next months and have cancelled plans with them as well.

We ordered unagi nigiri, gyoza and spicy edamame for appetizers. The edamame was not spicy at all so heat is not an issue.

We sat outside on the decking overlooking the man made lake and changing lights on the lush foliage surrounding it. Unfortunately the water light show was not operational this week but the setting was still beautiful and romantic. Eduardo was our estute waiter who spoke perfect English and made wonderful recommendations. We started with a couple of appetizers: the edamame and the ribeye asparagus rolls - both were delicious. Then for our entrees, we had the black cod and the Chilean Seabass. Both presentations were mouthwatering and the fish were extremely fresh, extremely flavorful and flaky. They came with bowls of steamed white rice and a choice of two soy sauce variations. The citrus variety was my favorite. We had amazing cappuccinos from scratch made for us. Another two options we could have done was hibachi or Korean BBQ. Both looked like fun experiences maybe on a future trip. Thank you Gong for making our dinner experience so memorable.

We must have arrive early as there weren't a whole lot of people there and basically got a personal waitstaff experience as we were basically the only ones there. It felt very V.I.P. We ordered some drinks and our meals and as we waited it was wonderful just heading the waves crashing in as the sun began to set. There was awesome live music right in front of our table. The music at the time had a Caribbean/Jamaican vibe mixed along with the local contemporary Mexican club music. We sat there sipping our blue hawaiians, mojitos, and pina coladas as the sun slowly made it's way toward the horizon on the sea. The sky turned ever-changing wonderful shades of orange, peach, pink, chartreuse, blue, and purple. That....is when the feeling of being on vacation sunk in. The waitstaff wasn't overpowering either. I didn't feel like they were rushing us by any means and really allowed us to take in the surroundings. I had order a light meal of the plantains stuffed with black beans with a chipotle mayo dipping sauce and a side of black beans. Oh my gosh it was so good. Just perfectly fried and a mix of sweet, salty, and savory and with the mildly spicy chipotle mayo, it was really wonderful. I will also say that the drinks are big and they are certainly do not skimp on the alcohol. My friend's mom had trouble finishing her mojito as it was so big. Overall though, if I'm ever in the area again, I will DEFINITELY be going here again. It was just a wonderful experience with good friends & family that I'll never forget.

The food was satisfactory but timing us everything. We had young children with us. So the adults had to eat their dinners in haste so that the children could go to bed soon. This was a bad experience.

The food looks and tastes fresh, but the quality is not ideal for making sushi. The most important ingredient, rice is poorly made and from really low quality. The rolls are loosened, and the taste is bland. I ordered several things looking for something I could like but at the end my stomach was full of tasteless things. The talpico was just white water with sugar. The owner, always there, looks happy but he is on the wrong direction for the business. The service is really good, but the food not.

Also they were handing out 10% off coupons outside the restaurant. After we ate and tried to redeem it they said it's only valid for delivery. We will return for a drink but we will eat elsewhere.
