  We got drawn in by the man standing outside offering discounts. The drink prices looked good and for a free round of drinks why not.
  
  The drinks where really good. After 2 drinks everyone in our group felt it. They had a happy hour special going on for $5 cocktails. We all got a round of pin-a colada's and margaritas. They serve the frozen drinks from one of those big pre made blenders.
  
  When I read all the reviews I was very nervous about the service. Our server Stephanie was so wonderful, she constantly checked on us and brought the drinks very fast. I would her 5/5 stars!
  
  The food however was just average. Nothing gave me that wow factor. This seems to be one of the cheaper options on the street and to be in the atmosphere of everything I would say its worth it.

  We ordered the calamari and it was not good. Service was ok. The only good thing was they did have $5 glasses of wine and margaritas but you get what you pay for. We were only here for a round of drinks and left after being disappointed by the taste of cheap drinks and overpriced poorly cooked calamari.
  
  Don't waste your time or money here for "$5 drinks."

  Is this place a joke? Came on a not busy at all Memorial Day afternoon (we were one of three tables in the entire place that were occupied) and the experience was not very positive. Ordered water, margaritas, salad with ahi tuna and a curried shrimp meal.
  
  We were sitting waiting for 15 minutes before we even got our water and half melted frozen margaritas. The ahi tuna was totally over cooked, dry, tasted like literal cat food. The dressing was salt salt salt. Shrimp curry consisted of overcooked mushy frozen shrimp and the side was literal potato sticks from can dumped onto the plate. Oh the mushrooms in the salad were obviously canned.
  
  Expensive, trash food.

  This was my first time here, the food was really good. I liked very much the Tuna and the Shrimp plates they have. I do not remember the name but they were Delicious. I recommend to dine and get a caipirinha drink.

  I knew not to eat here because of all the negative reviews, however, the waiter outside got us to sit down with promises of $5 cocktails. I ordered a round of Caipirinhas. Although these cocktails were delicious, and relatively strong, the amount of time for us to receive our two drinks was INSANE. Unbelievably slow. Not only that, but the staff never even checked up on us, I had to reach out to finally get attention, I decided to get one more round and ask for the check at the same time. The second round of drinks took the same time as the first round. But I guess $5 is a good price to pay. If they would serve us quicker, I definitely would have ordered way more drinks.
  
  It's cases like these that make me upset that a place automatically adds gratuity because the staff did not deserve that tip whatsoever.
