definitely go again!!! the bartender Elizabeth very attentive and friendly, excellent drinks by the way, the atmosphere very... comfortable with DJ music, I really stayed at La Quinta Inn but since everything is connected, it seemed like an excellent ideato do it, the terrace is divine and you can comfortably observe the sea and the stars at night why not!! Hillton and La QuintaInn took a great idea to connect everything I love it???? Read more

Staff is friendly, attentive and helpful. Booth, table, bar, counter height table seating available. Good food available during... breakfast, lunch and dinner. Service takes a bit long to serve, but it's worth the wait. Parking lot is mainly full from HiltonGarden Inn guests. Breakfast served from restaurant is the one included in your stay at the Hilton Garden Inn if your stayincluded free breakfast. Food is spicy depending on your taste. Read more

It took a bit for a food because it was pretty busy, but other then that it was a very nice experience! Everything was such a... vibe; our food, and drinks were great too! On top of that our bartender, Liz, was super friendly and great to talk to! Will comeagain Read more

Good restaurant in general. Food is greasy. If you are not used to it, it can cause you to be sick to your stomach. Nice... place. Friendly staff but lack of prompt service, they are a bit slow when you order something. They require tips of 18%minimum. Varied lunches: Omellets, Eggs to taste, fruit, pancakes, waffles, refried beans. Lunch and dinner. Similar case,varied food but all greasy. People coughing possibly sick of "something" and don't wear a mask. Nobody says anything to themeither, there were people coughing in the restaurant and nothing happened. Nobody told them anything.

The food was hot, fresh, and super flavorful. Everything was delicious. Staff was very friendly and attentive. They also have... the best chips ever! Their margaritas were also really good, and strong. My only criticism is to maybe offer different types ofsalsa with the chips - they only have one kind, which was way too spicy for me, but my husband seemed to like it. Read more

Food was super delicious. I just felt my steak was a lil dry and not as juicy, but was still delicious. The mojito cocktail and... the brownie ice-cream dessert was out of the world. Will come again. Read more

Stopped by for dinner and everyone loved their meals! I ordered the birria tacos and my only regret is not ordering more. The... waitress was wonderful, we certainly had her running at one point for refills and extra things but she was great. The best part?The tacos. The worst part? When the tacos were gone. Read more

This one was kind of hit and miss. Sunday was really good eats (pics posted) brisket tacos chicken tortilla soup and chicken... ranch fajitas. Everything was fresh and tasty. Went back on Thursday and we were pretty sure that we were eating leftover riceand beans from Sunday. Overall, still pretty decent for a quick dinner. Read more
