Had the best time with friends. Had fried fish botana and crispy shrimp botana which tasted so good. They have live music now and it’s a very fun night. Had the blue berry lemon drop so good one of my favorite drinks.

I like coming here for the food it is delicious. The ambiance is great. They have live music, which is a plus. In the summer we enjoy the seating outside. But for the colder days, we get a table inside. I highly recommend.
