The server was new and clearly being trained (she had a shadow following and instructing her) but she did a wonderful job- attentive but not hovering or intrusive. Drinks were perfect, I’d come back for just those any day. The grilled octopus appetizer was cooked perfectly (it had been recommended as a “must try” by a coworker) though the plate was drowning in this weird “yuca sauce” that had no taste whatsoever- just this mass of white pudding-like stuff. But still, the octopus was amazing, so we continued to be impressed. Sadly, main courses was where it went off the rails. I ordered the garlic shrimp, my friend had the jambalaya. The flavor on his was amazing, but for one small problem I’ll describe in a moment. Mine didn’t taste at all of garlic. The potatoes were mealy and slimy, the garlic sauce had been burned and congealed to clumps. In both dishes, the shrimp were a disaster. Cooked so hard that they looked like plastic, they required a knife to cut. The thin ends were actually so bad that they couldn’t be chewed with any amount of effort. At $23-30 dollars an entree, one expects better execution. There’s no way the chef didn’t know by looking at the poor things that something had gone terribly wrong. It was super disappointing.
After years of living in the the area found this nice gem. Great place with out door sitting and live music! Food was good the drinks were great! Looking forward to going back!!
I REALLY wanted to give this establishment a 5 star rating. They have the right attitude and energy, but not enough to go over the finish line. The food was truly delicious, but my disappointment came in the portion compared to the price. I ordered the $30 Paella, which I have ordered many times at other Portuguese restaurants, and I am always overwhelmed by the size and portion of the serving. This time, not at all. Besides being served in a soup bowl sized plate, there was no lobster in it at all! The description states lobster sofrito, and even though sofrito is a spice/seasoning, you would think there would be some lobster in the dish as well. Not even a half a tail! Nothing. There were about 6 really tiny clams with little meat in them and three shrimp. While the flavor was excellent, don 't order this thinking your taking some home with you. My wife had the Cod which she loved, though again, the portion is small. We split a Carne Empanda (2) appetizer, which again, were delicious, but had I known the main portions were so small, I woulds have ordered my own appetizer, maybe even two! We finished off our meal with a flaming desert. While it was tasty, the presentation was awkward and troublesome. I was waiting for the pan to fall off the burner the entire time. Drinks were small. I had a Mango Margarita and the shocker (to me anyway) was that there was SALT on the rim, and not sugar. I know salt is on a lime version, but I 've always had sugar put on my fruit versions. Tried the white sangria which was also outstanding, but small. So, the bottom line is that this is a very good restaurant, Over priced in my opinion $110 for two people. And the portions are jusssst enough to sate your hunger, and there won 't be any doggie bag. If they bumped up the portion size on food and drinks, and kept the prices the same, it would be a winner. Until then, there are many other places in the Lehigh Valley that outperform this place.
Food was very good as usual. I do feel that they should serve bread and salad for the prices of the dinner . Vegetables are also sparse . Love the music and service is good Friendly atmosphere
