- Mari MariFebruary 22, 2013The food is excellent and the music is great. My issue are the females...they have the worst customer service if you are a female too. Youll wait and wait but if a man comes in..theyre all over itUpvote4Downvote
The Flan is reasonable at times. Mangu in the morning is fresh. Water is more expensive at night. Empanadas suck almost always. The girls working are chongas!Upvote3Downvote

- The quality of food has declined drastically. Customer service is slow and plays favoritism.Upvote1Downvote
- Don't care who it belongs to. It is still isn't the greatest place to eat. The food at time is tasteless and at times been out for hours.Upvote1Downvote
