    Was highly disappointed that with 15 open tables, they wouldn't sit me while waiting for the 2nd person in my party. So I left. But have been here otherwise. Meh, it's okay. Outside seating is nice.

    A-MAZE-ING churrasco appetizer and sugar cane capirinha! Dissapointing service by the wait staff. Do NOT order white sangria pitchers, order water-it's cheaper and tastes the same.

    Has good latino music but they discourage dancing and service staff will ask you to stop dancing and is very rude to you.

    Attempting to be seated before your entire party is here is a nightmare even when countless available tables are visible.

    Eh, if a couple orders the ceviche taster and two entrees with drinks... You may want to comp the extra tortilla chips. You might not lose another customer.
