" The place was buzzing with energy, and it felt like a community! The friendly staff made us feel welcome immediately. The ceviche was the best I’ve had in ages! Each bite had fresh and zesty flavors that delighted my palate. However, the dishes came out staggeringly, so we did have to wait a little longer between courses. But overall, a fun vibe and delicious food. I would totally recommend going here for a meal with friends. " (*Curated Review*)
