"Lovely ambience under the shade, ceviche was amazing so fresh 🥰 But since I eat very plain, for me rest of the main dishes were way too salty. My friend who went with me, was very happy with food. Chilly crab was the kick 👍 Mojito was sweet and makes me so high. Love it love it 🫶🫶"

"Best restaurant on the island (and that's saying a lot). Try the chili crab or the black pepper crab, which are both exceptional.
Every server tried to tell me that the crabs are quite large, and one is plenty for two people. I didn't find that to be remotely accurate - we are not large people and we easily ate three of them in one sitting."
