Been here twice now, and have enjoyed the food off the happy hour menu. The rum drinks are definitely something to check out. While the servers are friendly, management needs to improve how orders are delivered to tables. Both times, the food delivery staff have no idea which table ordered what food. Nearly every 5 minutes, some one would come with food asking if we ordered it. Since theyre relatively new, maybe this will improve. Overall, great food, friendly staff, but needs a little service refinement.

I stopped by here for lunch on weekday and it was pretty slow so no worries on getting good service. I tried their tostones for an appetizer and they were delicious. I had the Cuban and adobo fries for the main course. The sandwich was good and while the seasoning on the fries wasnt my favorite, it was definitely different. My only complaint was that the waitress didnt point out I could have had several other choices for my lunch combo side.

Our server Angela gave us excellent service . She took care of our large party. The food is fantastic The plantain chips and the root chips were really good. It was the first time we have eaten them. The virgin watermelon drink was refreshing. I order the Mojo Sockeye Salmon which was an interesting infusion of flavors. Everyone enjoyed their entrees. We will be back for more . Thank you for accommodating our toddlers.

I work nearby and come here occasionally for lunch. The lunch combo is usually a pretty good deal, and I go for the 2 tacos+side most of the time. In my most recent visit, I found the tacos to be lacking in flavor as all I could taste was the lettuce and tortilla. Maybe it was the lack of chicken in my chicken tacos? Happy hour here is pretty good. They have apps and flavored mojitos for $5.

I really enjoyed the food and it was HUGE portions! I had enough for two meals. I would recommend getting the Guacamole, as it is a slam dunk for the taste buds! The only draw back was the mojito. It felt a bit weak and boring to me, I was not particularly impressed by that. I would definitely recommend going back and taking your taste buds for a Latin American taste tour!

This is a new dining venue in our area. We tried it on a weeknight. Large bar, they also have an extensive drink and wine list. The food is upscale latin/south american. We found the food quite good with some interesting flavors. The service on this visit was spotty, server was nice but disappeared too much, I hate having to wait and wait for drink reorders.

Not as popular as the sister location in Downtown at Crown in Gaithersburg. This can be a plus because seating is available. If looking for a quiet intimate restaurant, this is it. Check with Happy Hour speacials for drinks 1st. Food amazing. Wish they had more bilingual servers. Clean place. Parking is a block over so will have to walk a bit.

Friendly although not good service, waitress got orders mixed up (important when you have opposite tastes how meat should be cooked), forgot several times requests for drinks and food was average all around. We were a group of 10 friends,celebrating a birthday, and a quick survey among us did not give this place more than two stars.

Its okay. Weve been here twice because I was trying to convince myself Id like it. Started well with good drinks and a friendly staff. But then the service took forever and I didnt like any of the food at the table. The Argentinean grill was mostly rice and didnt taste grilled. May come back for drinks

Favorite spot for my wife and I during the week. Probably the best happy hour (5-7pm) for our tastes. We always get drinks, fish tacos and yucca fries. Always receive great service too. Dont bother parking on the street in the evening, just use the lot around the corner.

Food was decent, small platters for the price at happy hour - approximately the same/ slightly less cost as when its not happy hour. Service took a long time - understandable as they were busy. The manager was very responsive and she is working to improve service.

This is probably the best place to grab a drink near my office, but its decidedly in the "okay" category. The food is good enough but if youre looking for something authentic youll have to travel elsewhere. The good thing is that happy hour prices are pretty nice.

Came here for a drink with a friend and loved it. The atmosphere is great and with outdoor seating, perfect for the weather to come! Their happy hour specials include probably some of the best mojitos ive ever had! Would definitely recommend.

Guacamole. Awesome guacamole. Their spicy guacamole is pretty great. You should probably try to the guacamole. Thats it, everything else is too oily and greasy. Dont go for the calamari.

Only came here for drinks but hear good things about the happy hour. Bartender was attentive and mojitos are delicious. They have a selection of virgin drinks that look just as good.

Our favorite Happy Hour in the North Bethesda & Rockville area. Great appetizers with large choice and wine. High tops only or outside. Free parking lot across the street is a plus.

Attended a group event here recently. Food replenishment in the trays should have been faster so people were not waiting. The wait staff was very nice.

Cozy and clean. Love the food and the service. Parking is the only issue. Street parking is hard to find. There are garages in close proximity.

I absolutely love Latin food and this place was great. Try the jerk chicken skewers. They only give you about 3, though theyre really good.

We went for brunch. The duck confit and several other dishes were among the best things we have ever eaten. Highly recommended.
