Don't write this off as a tourist-trap only restaurant. The food is very good and the atmosphere creates a tropical haven for cold New York winter days.
My parents’ favorite place to eat in NYC. Start w/ the Macadamia Crusted Goat Cheese. Get the Parmesan Crusted Sanibel Chicken w/ CauliflowerPotatoMash as the main. Finish w/ the Piña Colada Cake.
Went back for the second time in less than a week! Loved the goat cheese and scallopsliders. Mahi mahi tacos were good, and pineappleyuzumojito was lovely, as was the painkiller drink.
Beautiful decor. And wonderful ambiance. Super friendly wait staff. Highly recommend the shareable appetizer, hummus and feta cheese with pita bread... it is so delicious.
They have live, chill, acoustic music here (I'd call ahead to confirm which days, I believe it fluctuates, but I'm remembering Tuesdays and Saturdays). Drinks and food are top notch!

Host was rude when asked for a table: "Sure. *looks at me twice / fake smile* Can't say no, right?" — We were this close to leaving, but we're glad we stayed: food was amazing! & Waitress was lovely!
