First time. Beautiful and sofisticated restaurant, flawless service. I ordered Mexican Burrata and a Tuna & Fries. It was good, too much black spice. The Ravioli with Tuffle was better. As desert the O.dette was delicious. Problem is to park. Very limited with valet.
We went blind with no idea what to expect just that it was a good place. We arrived and saw no parking guess what? they have free valet parking! Everyone was attentive the food is 4 star because the french toast is TOO sweet and the capucchino is delicious but is a tiny cup :( the steak and eggs is a must have and benedicts. The other thing I loved was the ambiance was so nice my baby could sleep during the time there even with live music. So is like perfect but to have brunch and have no coffee variety or macha was not good. Still recommended!
My 1st time here and let me tell you I loved it! Everything was yummy and the restaurant so gorgeous. One thing to notate the service was a bit slow but since they have bottomless brunch a lot people go which is understandable.
This recently opened restaurant (formerly Mitre) is beautifully-designed, with great and attentive service. The food was good (except for the Lobster Roll) and the atmosphere is nice and the restaurant was full on our Monday night visit. Though as other reviewers have noted, the music may be too loud for some diners. There is an open-air Tequila Bar upstairs. Great wine selection.
Pretty cool spot in the city. Vibes are on point. Drinks were perfect. Music was great. Had a great time. Stayed til they closed. Definitely recommend on Friday nights.
This got to be my top spot as of right now in the DR. We had the Tenderloin, aguacate and tomato salad with a risotto parmesana, and it was just out of this world. The staff is incredible and accommodating, and the ambiance was lively and comfortable, if you choose the terrace you are at the mercy of the drivers on the road and their horns but that only adds to the whole experience. It is not pricey if you compare it to a similar place in the US but maybe a bit high for the locals but worth every penny. Will definitely visit again.
I really enjoyed it here; the food was incredible and the service was alright. I came here on a Thursday night, and even though it wasn't really busy the food took longer than I thought. At the same time, it was way cheaper than I thought, so either way, it was a win win. The only think I didn't particularly like was regarding the music, it was way too loud in certain times.
