    Date night!
    Eskimo Y.

    Wow, we loved it all but the octopus is out of this world! Great atmosphere, service was top notch. Shared food style for our meal, up from Connecticut and well worth the drive!

    Great night out!!!

    I feel like Worcester *needed* this restaurant!!! It's Peruvian and Ecuadorian food- and my oh my- what a welcomed change! We were a group of 6 so we tried and shared many dishes including the steak, octopus, ceviche, and more! The drinks, including the classic Pisco sour, were equally delicious! And our waitress Naomi was also very sweet and knowledgeable! I can't wait to go back to try the empanadas!!! By the way - this restaurant is where the Flying Rhino was, but everything has been renovated and it has a totally clean, warm, inviting, and happy vibe!!! Highly recommend!

    I was pleasantly surprised by our experience here . I only say this because the restaurant is fairly new, and I know it takes time to get into a groove. Everything was excellent though! Our server was fantastic, and knew a lot about the different dishes. The owner came out several times to check on us. The food was phenomenal! We were a group of six and we ended up getting several small and sharing throughout the evening. The Yuca Croquetas we're so good, we put in a second order. At the end we found out we should have ordered the empanadas! We did not have one thing that we did not like. I am so happy that Worcester has this restaurant.

    I'll be real, I could have drank the ceviche broth. Plus the service was amazing and everyone was so friendly. 10/10. You gotta go

    cocktail garden & kitchen is a brand new restaurant and outdoor lounge. the ambiance is cute,…read morethere's an indoor bar with a couple tables and a large outdoor patio area filled with comfy chairs, couches and covered in lights. we came at 10pm on a wednesday, the kitchen was closed but we came for the drinks anyways. they do a great job with the drink presentation, using different presentations with smoke which is entertaining and pretty! their drinks look beautiful but the drinks are very watered down or sweet from the sweet heart and mezcal drinks we tried. for ~$17 each, i loved the presentation but we both didn't feel there was nearly any alcohol in them, either sugary or watery. maybe it's a method for you to order more? mezcal 2.5/10 sweet heart 3/10 although they have a great ambiance and vibe, and fun presentation, since we came for a single good drink, it was lacking. for $17 a drink, the drinks shouldn't be this weak. this is a new place so i'm sure they have some things to work out, and i would highly encourage them to just add more alcohol to their drinks and this would be an ideal place to get after dinner drinks and relax on their outdoor patio. kitchen was closed so can't speak for the food. the neighborhood is very busy and loud, so while there may be plenty of space for an intimate or group conversations, the street is pretty noisy, even on a wednesday. i do feel like they will work this out! tldr; great vibe, great presentation, good service, drinks need more work, located in busy part of city. ambiance: 4/5 food: n/a drinks: 1.4/5 service: 3.5/5 cocktail garden & kitchen: 2.9/5

    Food was fine, drinks were good, but didn't have enough ice/weren't cold enough. Service was good,…read morenothing special. The vibe was a little weird. Whole experience was just okay.

    It's a mix for me. The ambiance was amazing, great lighting and not too loud. The parking lot was…read morefull of water but honestly that didn't bother me at all, it added to the vibe of the place. I got the spicy ramen and my partner got the chicken non spicy one, please refer to pics as I forgot the name... highly recommend getting the chicken ramen, the broth is light and savory, additionally lots of protein and veggies to make it the perfect ramen bowl. The spicy ramen was okay, I love spice but this one was a bit starchy as if too much starch was used to thicken the broth. The noodles were also way too soft; and there's very little protein. I got beansprout as an add on and that was $2; a bit much if added onto the bowl.

    We went on a Saturday night where it was quite packed (almost every single table was filled),…read morehowever, we still got seated quickly which was awesome. The service is great. Our food arrived fairly quickly as well. All of the staff are very friendly & attentive. The space is cool, very relaxing & open. As for the food, it was very, very SALTY. The mussels were good but once you reach the bottom of the bowl it was salty. The flavor of the wings were good but also salty. The ramen was also extremely salty as well so it seems like everything they make here is just overall on the salty side. If they just lessened every dish on that part, it would be perfect. But especially the ramen was very hard to eat without drinking 5 cups of water. The shirley temple was delicious tho! Food is 3/5 but service is a 5/5. So I will say the service definitely saved the rating from 3 stars.
