Menu is totally marked incorrectly - it is super unclear and our server was not very helpful. There are things to eat but I wouldn’t go back due to the stress of being unsure.

I ate here a year ago and then again this week. The menu shows only a couple of gluten-free options and no gf entrees so I was a bit concerned. I had written into the restaurant a month ago to ask about gluten-free options, but did not get a response. Fortunately, my server was on top of things and let me know what I could eat. There are many options that are available with modifications to the written menu.

My husband and I shared the octopus appetizer, which was delicious. We followed that with the miraflores salad which we both enjoyed. For my entrée, I had the lechon without the crispy pork skin. Know that the fryer is shared so that any fried items are not safe.

I went because I wanted to go to a restaurant with live music that was crowded. I had a great experience, but know that it is loud and somewhat difficult to communicate with your server.

The meal I had was delicious, and I will probably return and have the same thing again.

This is not the most logical place to go as celiac, but I really enjoyed it

Menu seems to have changed. Limited options and not super accommodating. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re looking for a meal bigger than a salad and sides

Amazing experience! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and put my worries at easy in minutes. They made modifications to the ceviche which was one of the best I’ve ever eaten. I ordered the lechon which was delicious. The music and ambiance was tough to beat. Would absolutely come back here!

I had the lechon. It was delicious and they had the chef come and talk to me about what is in it. I have multiple severe intolerances including celiacs and nightshades I did not get sick. Plus it was delicious!

So so so good!! Live music and great vibe. The first thing the waitress said to us was “does anyone have any allergies” ..music to my ears! Tostones and maduros are fried in a separate fryer. They were very knowledgeable about gluten
