We were a party of 6, and tried 5 of the main courses. My wife and I both had the Snapper. The Red Wine sauce was a little sweet for my taste, but the Snapper didn't need any enhancement . It was very tasty seasoned as it was. The mixed carrots and squash were cooked al dente, leaving the taste that is sometimes steamed out of vegetables. The mashed potatoes were smooth and tasty. My 10 year old granddaughter had the most tender and tasty churrasco steak that I have tasted in the Miami area (I had to try it), and it was the first time she has ever finished that large a steak. My 12 year old grandson had the Seafood Risotto, and he polished that off in record time. My Son-in-Law had the Salmon, and he seemed to enjoy it. My Daughter had the Filet Mignon, and she enjoyed it to no end. She didn't like the arrugula vegetable mix, but my Son-in-Law did. The only thing left on our plates, was some of the yellow rice mixed w/peas and veggies on my Granddaughter's plate. Although she complimented the taste (this from a girl who would rather have plain white rice), it was too large a portion for a 10 year old girl to finish. The bread was a little coarse in texture, but with a chewy crust that I enjoy. The oil and pepper accompaniment for the bread was spoiled by a dollop of vinegar. My Grandson's shrimp appetizer consisted of 4 very large, tasty shrimp. My Garden Salad had a little too much vinegrette dressing for my taste, and I will remember to ask for dressing on the side, the next time I go. My wife and Son-in-Law enjoyed their Mediterranean Salads. My daughter doesn't like coconut, so her Flan, though good, was about the same as the excellent "Lila's" flan that abounds in Miami. My Granddaughter had the Chocolate Cheesecake that had an Oreo cookie coating -very rich and satisfying. It is somewhat pricey for us to use as a routine eatery, more of a special occasion type restaurant. We will be going back.
Pros: Very romantic and the service is excellent
Cons: A little pricey for routing dining, more for special occasions
