We had an amazing time celebrating my parent's anniversary and my mom's birthday. One of the highlights was our waitress Camila, she went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and even explained the menu in Spanish! Thank you for a fantastic afternoon ❤️

When making reservation (from USA) I thought that at 1:00pm I was making a lunch reservation. Only to find they only do afternoon tea on Sat and Sun. They did give us lunch but told us that we’d need to order one afternoon tea since it’s their policy! So an extra unnecessary cost. Not impressed by that, the very least it should say that on open Table. Staff were nice and apologized for the policy!
