Description

The kitchen relies on natural ingredients to prepare traditional dishes like grilled meats and ceviches. While the food itself draws local support, the in-person dining experience is frequently marked by service inconsistencies and surprise fees, such as charges for to-go containers and unannounced taxes on lunch specials. Visitors note that while table service and order pickups can come with staff friction, ordering delivery has run smoothly for off-site diners.
