Excellent service by Camila Andrea
Very nice spot for dinner, really liked the fried yucca that came with the seafood. Nice atmosphere. Camila was very friendly and accommodating. The rest of the staff as well were friendly also.
It's okay, but nothing more. The drinks were okay (more on the level of an all-inclusive hotel than a restaurant), the food was okay (very small portions and nothing special), and the atmosphere was okay (a loud restaurant with a DJ booth). For the price, there are many things in Cartagena that are more worthwhile, in my opinion.
The place is nice, the food is very good, and Vanesa's service is excellent. It's a place to eat well and feel at ease. The only thing is that the live music is a bit annoying, but luckily it was brief.
Everything was excellent. The Cartagenero Bowl was delicious, and the Coconut Cheesecake was special. 😋
Nice place, superb service, and fascinating. The food was top-notch. The drinks were amazing.Take special care of Humberto, who was incredibly attentive and his recommendations were perfect. Thank you very much.
Great fish and seafood cuisine, well plated, friendly and helpful service. Music not as loud as in other places so we can hear each other. Service is good and swift. Alejandra was very friendly and attentive.
A very nice place, with good food, excellent service, we were served by Angelica and in my opinion it was impeccable service and very attentive
I really liked the service, the kindness and attention from the person who served us, Angelica.
