I arrived at the restaurant with anticipation, only to be greeted by a disheartening sight. Despite the posted opening time of 5:00 PM, I arrived at 5:30 pm to find the restaurant's signage boldly proclaimed "closed." However, my hopes were momentarily revived when I noticed the door was ajar and a table inside was occupied by a group of people. It was a baffling scene - I couldn't discern whether they were staff members engaged in a meeting or actual patrons enjoying their meal.
To make matters worse, there was a conspicuous absence of anyone who appeared to be a restaurant employee. No hostess, no servers, no sign of life. It was an incredibly disorganized and unprofessional sight, leaving me feeling frustrated and abandoned. The prospect of experiencing the restaurant's offerings, which I had eagerly anticipated, was abruptly shattered.

I recently revisited the restaurant, and I'm pleased to say that my second experience was a complete turnaround from the initial one. From the moment I walked through the door, I was impressed by the improvement in service. One of the waiters promptly approached me, and I was seated without any delay.
For the appetizer, I decided to try their empanadas, which was tasteless and room temperature cold. I perfer it to be warm and toasty, so I might skip them on my next visit. However, my disappointment was short-lived because the main course, their Chuletas de Cerdo, was an absolute homerun.
The two grilled pork chops were cooked to perfection, and the combination with the sliced pineapples elevated the dish to another level. The pork was tender and flavorful, and the slight tanginess of the pineapples complemented it beautifully. It was a delightful and satisfying dish that I thoroughly enjoyed.
This second visit has restored my faith in the restaurant. The excellent service and the outstanding Chuletas de Cerdo have convinced me to give it another chance. I'm looking forward to returning and exploring more of their menu, and I'm confident that this restaurant is on the right track to providing a consistently enjoyable dining experience.
