My entire dining experience was fantastic! The ambiance to the excellent customer service & scrumptious food I must say this restaurant is A1. Our server Diego was truly the personification of class & professionalism, nothing was to big a task and his dining choices were on point! I had the red snapper which was nothing short of delicious along with the turmeric rice and black beans, I also tried the steak which was . Would I return definitely, would I recommend ABSOLUTELY!!

I ordered the 1/2 Peruvian Style chicken with yellow rice and black beans to go from the counter. Service was super fast but the chicken - compared with other Peruvian Style chicken I've had at other locations - was merely passable. It wasn't particularly juicy or flavourful - and the white meat was actually pretty dry , the rice was rather gummy and the beans were swimming in water -straight from the can? You can't really complain when a passable dinner is only about 10$ - but maybe for 15$ they could have done something to make you WANT to come back? It seemed like there was no effort coming from the kitchen - make something halfway decent and maybe they'll come back since there aren't that many other options in the immediate area - seemed the philosophy. In fact there ARE other options so they need to get their game up .

The food was VERY good. We split tapas after having a tough time choosing as there were many appealing options. Mac n cheese with shrimp and clams was delicious, plantain nachos were excellent, and cheese and asparagus was very good. Seafood paella entree was excellent but a small portion for $26! Drinks were inventive and the short wine list has basic options. I recommend the Tempranillo although wines were priced higher than expected (even for Restaurant mark ups).Service was excellent, we've never been made more welcome. Our server, Danny, was great! He was friendly, personable, knowledgeable and seemed to be a genuinely nice guy. Other staff were also pleasant and helpful and practically fell over each other to thank us for coming.Why only 4/5? The price, frankly. I know good food with good ingredients isn't cheap but small portion tapas ranged from &12-$15 each. Too much money for the plantains, the small mac n cheese and absurd for eight spears of asparagus with garlic and some melted cheese.We didn't have dessert.Restaurant has free parking, nice decor and is only three minutes off the Belt Parkway on Cross Bay Boulevard.Again, food and service were great, but if portion sizes don't increase to match prices, or prices don't come down a little we will only visit occasionally after payday :).

This restaurant came up on Groupon after checking the reviews we decided to go...I love eating tapas style its a great way to pace your eating... The plates come to the table as the chef prepares them...no rush...and a pitcher of sangria helps the experience.,.the food is priced well and the flavors jump off the plate this place is cosy and has good atmosphere no doggie bags here and the service is polite.... neighborhood is very transitional so no excellent rating sorry not your fault
