“The food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent.”
The place was packed yet we never felt rushed and our server was very attentive. We were celebrating birthdays and they went above and beyond to make our evening special. We will be back!

“Such a delicious dinner at this delightful Latin restaurant in downtown Lakeland.”

“The churrasco was marinated wonderfully and cooked perfectly.”
Great Food, Great Bar, and Great Staff. The owners are always working to ensure a great experience for all of their guests. One of my favorite things is to sit at the bar for dinner and drinks. The bar staff is amazing and the drinks are on point.
