This is a fairly new establishment. I remember when this space was La Marina and coming here for a lit Yelp Elite event. The place is just as breathtaking with beautiful views of the Hudson River, lights strewn everywhere, and spacious outdoor seating.
The menu is quite extensive, and I was debating between BBQ (ribs, of course) or one of the entrée plates. I finally decided to order a Combination Taco Plate, served with coconut rice and plantains. I selected 2 Shrimp Tacos, and 1 Corn with Mushroom Taco. The Shrimp Tacos consisted of shrimp, corn mango salsa, and avocado crema. This was delicious! The shrimp was plentiful, juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The Corn and Mushroom Taco included cotija cheese, and crema. This was also tasty. The vegetables were wonderfully fresh and cooked perfectly. All the ingredients combined together well to make for yummy bites!
I really enjoyed the plantains, which were just the right amount of sweetness, soft, moist, and slightly charred. The rice was also great with strong coconut taste, as well as a nice consistency.
My friend had the BBQ Rib Tips, so I got to try some and they were absolutely mouthwatering! These were house smoked and finished with homemade BBQ sauce. They were small morsels of incredibly tender, delightfully succulent, satisfyingly crispy, and deeply flavorful meat!
Service was pretty good throughout our time. There were a few mix-ups when it came to the different sushi rolls that were ordered, but our waiter was eager to make it right. We had a lovely experience here. I would be open to returning to have the Coconut Shrimp and Ribs, but it probably won't be for awhile because I live quite far from this restaurant.
