    Took my good friend out for her birthday and surprised her with some other friends joining us. We had a very good time. The food was great. The dishes just kept coming. We all enjoyed it very much. We were very surprised when a few waiters started singing happy birthday in Spanish and brought a piece of cake with a candle on it. A very special touch by the staff. Highly recommend this restaurant.
