The reviews for the restaurant offer a mixed perspective. Some found the food to be subpar and overpriced, with one reviewer feeling ripped off by the cost of an average bottle of wine. Others were disappointed with the service, finding the staff rude and inattentive. The loud music and overall environment were also noted as negatives by some patrons. However, there were positive comments as well, with diners praising the welcoming decor, reasonable menu prices, delicious food, and excellent service. The steak was highlighted as particularly tender and juicy, and the cassava was freshly prepared. Overall, while some had a less-than-stellar experience, others enjoyed their meals and would return to the restaurant.
