Beautiful spot, loved the vibe. Ask for the Cindy [I hope I wrote it right] but she is so patient and sweet.Parking: You can park in front of the location but if is packed there won't be any parking in front. Wich is common sence.

Good brunch deals , bottomless mimosas and different dishes for about 39.99 and hookah for like $30. Music was okay expected a bit more Latin songs to dance too, it was a mix of top 40s and old school. Food portions were okay, still hungry...Read More

This establishment is highly disappointing, both in its practices and treatment of customers. They seem more focused on exploiting every opportunity to charge customers rather than providing a welcoming experience.
