Nice place where you’d least expect it. I was pleasantly surprised as I entered the building and the surprises kept coming. They have a hot rock option where you can cook your meal on a real hot stone. I got the filet mignon and the tuna and the cuts of meat were perfect and so fresh. Everything cooked beautifully as well. Also be sure to try the desserts if you still have room.

This place was recommended to us by our air bnb host, and we are so glad we went here for dinner! The servers were super hospitable and friendly. We had apps (the shrimp and scallops in a garlic sauce, plus the clams in the garlic sauce). They also bring out bread and olives and a fabulous salad to share. Tried a few Portuguese wines; and had the chocolate mousse, flan, and affogato. Everything was exceptional! Would definitely return.

What a rare find!! I picked this place because it was close to the hotel. They have an area for dine in and take out. The take out section is all that you would want. Plenty of drinks and deserts to choose as well as the full menu. The food is superb!!!!! What I liked most was the service and employees. They are super friendly humans. They are very warm people with good spirits- all of them. Go here after work for a relaxing vibe to end the day, or stop by on your way home to pick up dinner for the family. The portions are big and the food is good.

Just don’t. I ordered delivery online. Spent $50 and even left a $10 tip before trying the food and… major regrets…there’s no seasonings. No flavor. Look at the brocoli. There’s no pepper, no salt. And while the portions were HUGE the food is unpalatable because there’s no flavor. And since the tin containers were piping hot and the food was NOT that means its been siting idle and they just warmed it up. They also provided ketchup and hotsauce for pasta meals?

This is a great place for take out or dine in. I normally get the BBQ (no sauce) chicken or ribs. Today I went with the red snapper and skirt steak. Both were very good but if I had to choose one over the other I would pick the steak.

Farewell dinner for one of our favorite coworkers…food was very flavorful but I had the stuffed salmon…I’d argue it was a little overcooked and the mashed potatoes tasted boxed. The garlic sauce from the shrimp appetizer was DELICIOUS. They should bottle it for real…As a decaf coffee drinker, the coffee was AMAZING. That said, i’d return and ask that the salmon spend less time in the heat. Atmosphere was cozy and elegant, yet a little noisy. Beautiful design. Waiters were attentive and got our order right for a crowd of 15. Impressive.
