    Get early by metro or if you drive. Now parking is crazy due to construction...so get their in rush hour and park if you drive but what the meters. The drinks are good and so is the music...

    Get a mojito with an exotic flavor. The Mango and Blueberry Mojito's was my favorite. But they have several other variety's and they are all delicious. Definitely mix it up a little. T

    Restaurant by day, hot latin groove by night. Be prepared for busy crowd during happy hour (til 7:30). Manager (Juanita?) Was great. We will definitely be back again soon.

    It's 4 dance floors each playing their own music, mostly Salsa, Reggaetone, Bachata and Dancepop. There's good crowd beyond 12 on the weekends. But it's not your regular Salsa place.

    Price Points: Beers and cocktails are discounted at happy hour (4 to 7:30 Monday through Friday), meaning $3 for a Sagres beer from Portugal or $5 for a mango mojito. Read more

    SUPER nachos are DELICIOUS. Also try the Caribbean spicy chicken wings and the fried platanos during happy hour. It's a great balance between spicy and sweet.
