I am told that there is salsa dancing here on Thursday evenings. There is outdoor seating available, and they letus bring our dog to sit outside with us. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating and answered our questions about the menuclearly. The food was delicious. Our waitress brought us these complementary plantain-like things that came with a tomatosauce. For an appetizer, we got oysters which are $1.25 per piece, and you can order as many as you want. However, they are onlyavailable Tuesday-Thursday. They came in a spicy sauce that wasn?t too spicy and tasted similar to sushi. For my entre, I gotthe Carne y Uchuva which is essentially fillet mignon on top of a corn-flour pancake. The fillet mignon was savory and tender,and the pancake was sweet. The flavors complemented eachother beautifully. For dessert, I got this strawberry meringue cookiewith tres leches, which was also delicious. 10/10 experience.
