    Great location overlooking the party strip. Good music and the service was amazing. There are what seems to be everyone on the staff serving you , refilling your napkins and attending to your ever need. They even escorted me to the bathroom instead or just pointing to it. Went at night but the view during my night day outside of the strip, the ocean and the lagoon must be amazing. They offer large amazing drinks, American menu and Mexican menu. All the food like old delicious and has pictures to help you decide. You will not be disappointed. Prices are very reasonable. It is on the top floor in the Mall where the Hardrock Cafe is located. Don't let the difficult to find location deter you. I wish everyplace in Miami was like this. I will come again.

    Tandoori taco

    T'was Christmas Eve and all the fancy restaurants in the hotel zone was full. My party of 9 was hungry after a long day at Chichen Itza and really just wanted to eat a meal somewhere. We decided to check out this place which had bouncers in the front trying to get people to come eat. I think that is a little off putting and when we arrived inside, it was nearly empty. This was also a rooftop restaurant that was playing top 50 music. I mean I felt like it was going to turn into a party late at night. Hence our party of grandmas and kids felt a little out of place. However, you should never judge a book by its cover. I will honestly say this place offered one of the friendliest and best service I have ever received in a restaurant. Our waiter accommodated to our every need (including turning the fan off and moving us inside when the music became too loud). He always had a smile on his face and came back very often to pick up our trash and even put coasters under our drinks so that the table wouldn't get so wet. The food choices are very eclectic ranging from sushi to salmon to burgers and of course mexican food like tacos. It had something for everyone at the table. I got the mango margarita drink which was delicious but it came in this giant fish bowl and in retrospect I wish I shared it with my friend because neither of us could finish our drink. Salmon and rice: pretty standard dish that comes with a big piece of salmon filet grilled in teriyaki sauce. it tasted delicious with the rice. Tandoori chicken taco: wow this is not what I expected. Instead of your traditional tortilla, this came on pieces of lettuce leaves kind of like the lettuce wrap at PF chang. I didn't really taste the tandoori but overall it was a yummy dish. Steak tacos: absolutely delicious Pizza: I ordered the personal vegetarian pizza which has pesto and WAY TOO much cheese. I wouldn't recommend it. Burger: I forget which one my brother ordered but it was massive, comes with plenty of curly fries and some onion rings and a side of jalapenos which is much appreciated. He could barely finish it since it was such a big portion. The bathroom was also pretty clean and spacious. Oh and cherry on top was that they give you a lollipop at the end. bottom line: food is alright could be hit or miss but service is top notch!

    Free appetizer!!

    Amazing fusion of American/Mexican! Two restaurants fused together, once seated you get both menus and if you check in a free margarita. During happy hour certain drinks are 2 for 1. Had fried shrimp taco, North burger & chicken burger. Drinks are great as well-- Long Island ice tea and Aboslute Vodka

    I should have known the food here would be as American as it gets (even the Mexican menu is Americanized) just by the name of the restaurant but since it has good reviews I decided to give it a try. Don't get me wrong the food here is not bad, but it isn't great either, it is just OK. What I did enjoy was the wonderful service we received, the atmosphere and the view we got from our table. I would probably go back just because it is very nice and appetizers are not bad for what they are and they serve coffee which is always a plus for me.

    Great view, great food and great service!. It's a must when you go to Cancun. The togas rojos dorados are excellenté

    Fish enchiladas very good

    We were looking around for a place to have our last dinner. Was trying to check out the menu and a nice gentleman that was kinda like a host in the lobby basically showed us the menu and escorted us to the restaurant upstairs. First they bring a drink menu with tons of options. After u order ur drink, they bring u one American food menu and one Mexican food menu. We ordered two drinks, nachos, duck mole, and fish enchiladas. My drink was massive, tasted great but hardly had alcohol in it. For me to have a drink that size (basically equivalent to two cocktails) and not feel anything just goes to show how weak it was. My friend was disappointed with her drink as well. Food was really good though. The fish enchiladas were good, something different. Duck mole also different and duck was so good. And the nachos were great but we should've skipped it because he entrees were a good portion. All in all a great meal, ambience and service.

    Had a terrific dinner here. Everything, especially service great. They need prompting to trust that you like spicy and exiting the restaurant requires walking through a dead mall, but everything else was amazing including the views of the party scene below!

    Complimentary cake for our Anniversary

    See all

    Food was good just took to long to be prepared considering there wasn't a lot of people in the restaurant due to the coronavirus

    The food wasn't that great. My salmon was too over cooked when I requested rare. That said the atmosphere was very cool and upbeat
