love this place!!

I went here to celebrate a best friends birthday and it was the perfect atmosphere for a great time with friends. From the outside you can't tell how amazing this restaurant is but when you first walk in you can feel the energy and authenticity. There decor is colorful and the theme is seafood which is perfect because the seafood is fantastic.

They are famous for their red snapper and ceviche. We ordered a few ceviches and a grilled assortment of fish to share. We were all blown away by the freshness and taste. There were many unique condiments and spices to try as well.

This place is so reasonable for the amount and quality you will receive. The service was also amazing. We were seated right away and they allowed us to bring our own cake. It is a very popular weekend spot so there might be a wait but they seat you as soon as they can. Pitchers of Sangria are also really inexpensive and great.
