Shopping
Pembroke Lakes Mall is a spacious shopping center featuring department stores, national brands, a food court, and a movie theater. Located in Pembroke Pines, Florida, visitors can also explore the nearby Everglades National Park or delve into the city's history at the Old Davie School Historical Museum.
I enjoyed going to this mall today it has been YEARS for me. I took some pictures of stores that I enjoyed seeing today. If you visit Florida for your first time this mall is worth visiting. 3 department stores as well. JCPenney, Dillards & Macys

Pembroke Lakes Mall is a fantastic place for the whole family, offering plenty of options to bring kids. There’s a charming carousel, entertainment areas, toy stores, and games throughout the mall. Shoppers will find a great variety of brands and stores like Macy’s and Dillard’s, plus numerous dining options to suit any taste. Clean, spacious, and well-maintained, it’s a great spot to spend a day shopping and having fun.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review: Pembroke Lakes Mall Visiting Pembroke Lakes Mall is a true pleasure every time. Located in the heart of Pembroke Pines, this mall stands out as one of South Florida's best shopping and entertainment destinations. It strikes that perfect balance between a nostalgic indoor mall vibe and a modern, family-friendly experience. Whether you're there to shop, eat, watch a movie, or just hang out, it offers something for everyone. As soon as you step inside, you're welcomed by an atmosphere that feels lively but not overwhelming. The mall is clean, well-organized, and tastefully designed with bright lighting and wide corridors, making it feel spacious and inviting. It’s easy to navigate, with clear signage and a good flow from store to store. Shopping here is a dream. You’ll find all your favorite major retailers like Macy’s, Dillard’s, JCPenney, and Forever 21, along with a variety of specialty boutiques and kiosks offering unique finds. It’s not just the quantity of stores but the variety that makes it fun—you can window shop, pick up luxury items, grab some everyday essentials, or splurge on a gift. The mall has kept up with trends, welcoming newer brands and seasonal pop-ups that keep things interesting. What really elevates the experience, though, is how much more than just shopping you can do. The mall has a full AMC Theatre with reclining seats and IMAX screens, making it a perfect place for date nights or family outings. There's also Round One Entertainment, a massive indoor entertainment center with arcade games, bowling, karaoke, and more. Kids absolutely love it, and adults do too. It gives the mall a full-day, amusement-park feel, especially when the Florida weather turns hot or rainy. Dining is equally satisfying. The food court offers a great mix of quick eats—think Asian, Italian, American, and Latin flavors all in one place. For sit-down meals, there are great restaurants all of which serve as perfect spots to unwind after a shopping spree. You can even sit next to the indoor water fountain area for a calming meal experience. For families, the mall shines with its clean and well-maintained kids’ play area, spacious family restrooms, and even stroller rentals. It’s also a great place for teens and college students to gather, with comfortable seating areas, charging stations, and places to just relax and socialize. During holidays, the mall puts in extra effort with decorations, seasonal events, and themed photo ops. Customer service is another highlight. Whether it’s the security team, custodial staff, or store employees, people here are courteous, helpful, and professional. The overall vibe is safe and welcoming, which makes a huge difference—especially for solo shoppers, parents with children, or elderly visitors. Parking is ample, with options for covered garage spaces and valet service. Accessibility is also well thought out, with elevators, ramps, and wide aisles accommodating all visitors comfortably.

Italian restaurant
Sosta Caffé is a charming Italian cafe with a cozy atmosphere and modern rustic decor. The family-owned establishment prides itself on the motto "Eat well, live well, and love most!" They offer an array of delectable Italian dishes made with freshly sourced local ingredients. From dreamy Italian starters like stracciatella mozzarella to assorted crisp panini and flavorful lasagna, their menu is designed to satisfy without weighing you down.
Had a wonderful dinner here last night with my family. Usually in south Florida, you need to make the trip to Ft. Lauderdale or Miami for quality Italian but if you’re from the davie area I recommend you just get some in your back yard. The food was quality, the staff were kind and I will absolutely be coming back. Many of the reviews are critical of the service but as with many small business, they are understaffed. With a little bit of patience you will have a wonderful night and enjoy great food.

Been here twice and the food was great! Went for dinner the first time and lunch for the second time. Both times we were taken care of right away. The fresh bread tasted amazing. The sauces in the Ravioli Dual were a great way to sample the red meat sauce and the Alfredo sauce. Both were great but the Alfredo sauce was preferred. The focaccia romana pizza was overall good. The tiramisu was good but not the best we had. Our server was friendly and helpful.

So we walk in, the lady behind the counter greets us and then walks away. Like what? Another server checked on our reservation and sort of pointed to where we could sit. Luckily for us, we got served by a third person who was friendly and knew about the dishes. The bread was outstanding as was the olive oil. We ordered bruschetta and that was really good. It was missing a little salt but honestly, I’d rather it be needing salt than salty. The vinaigrette reduction complimented the tomatoes on the bruschetta. The fiocchi di pera was tasty. Fresh made pasta with pear inside and in a white Gorgonzola sauce. I added a little salt but again, I’d rather add salt than have a salty dish. They had a big selection of cakes to choose from: Nutella, cheesecake with berries; limoncello tiramisu, etc. The cheesecake by itself was a little dry but whe

We discovered Sosta Caffe, a charming little Italian spot this weekend, and it was a delightful surprise! The bruschettas and the burrata were absolutely spectacular—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We also tried the gnocchi al pesto and the capricciosa pizza, both bursting with authentic Italian flavor. The service was top-notch—warm, attentive, and welcoming. If you visit, you must try the tiramisu🙏—it’s the perfect way to end the meal. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a true taste of Italy in a cozy setting!

This is the kind of simple place where you can be in jeans or dressed up and be comfortable all the same. The quality of the food speaks for itself. Wonderfully flavorful ingredients lend to the experience. Come here to sit with friends and try many dishes. We got 5 dishes for 3 people, each one of them awesome in its own right. Desserts were out of this world. 2 hours later we were so stuffed, lots of left overs as each bite was an experience to be enjoyed. Very filling and satiating. Very relaxed atmosphere. Big family sized tables and kid friendly. The staff was very attentive, it got busier and busier as the time passed and they consistently checked in on us. Highly recommend the pear and ricotta pasta dish. It is rich and full of texture that creates layers of flavor and sweetness.

Colombian restaurant

Rancho Nando in Pembroke Pines is a vibrant eatery that captures the essence of Colombian cuisine, making it a must-visit for food lovers. The moment you step inside, you're enveloped by a warm and inviting atmosphere, complemented by friendly staff who are dedicated to ensuring an enjoyable dining experience. Their menu features delightful Colombian breakfasts and mouthwatering meat and seafood dishes that burst with flavor. Guests rave about their fresh empanadas—both chicken and beef—which are crafted with care.
As a Colombian, this place is really good! The empanas were so good and not greasy. They were fresh. The bandeja Paisa was sooo good! It’s so big too! The meat was cool really good, the chorizo and chicharrón were delicious! And the cazuela as well! I loved the presentation of the dishes as well. Feels very traditional. For dessert I got postre de Natas. Definitely recommend

I did pick up. I orders the picada mixta for 4 people Tostones - needs flavor bland ( dont seal them it gets soft) Pork ribs- highlight good Boiled potato bland need salt Tiny Chicharones - skin not crispy meet Carne asada- very well done ordered medium Blood sausage - good Plantain- too old very smashed. Summary the customer service and ambiance is nice full of joy party. Food. The highlight is suppose to be the meat and it wasnt today. They cut it into very thin strips it to cook it quicker and it lacks the juices of what carne is suppose to taste like. There is so much potential but I believe the only reason could be the demand is dropping the quality. And if your gonna charge 65 dollars. I expect quality on the meats and flavor not bland. Very disappointed.

Great variety of authentic Colombia cuisine. The Bandeja Paisa was delicious. The breaded pork however was very thin and overcooked. The peas soup was ok(the peas were a bit hard). The service was very good and the ambiance felt like your typical latin restaurant.

The food was good , but the service was probably top 5 worst service i have ever had . It felt like our server forgot about us several times , and it certainly wasn't because they were busy...they weren't. We put appetizers and drinks in.. 20 minutes later our drinks came out ... We then received one entree , still no appetizers . Another 15 minutes or so go by and my spouse was finished with her food and then my entree came out ..and then the appetizers .. The food was good , and then we wanted to pay..good luck finding our server .. who never came back to check on us after we got our food. The bill was 80 dollars, plus an extra 2 dollars to use your debit card. Never coming back/ 10

This place really surprise me. The place is big and decoration was very Colombian, everything was clean and tables had enough space between each other, everybody was in uniforms making it feel like a well prepared workers. We came for Memorial Day, and the place was full. It took a little longer for the service, but it was worth it. Great attention starting from the hosted DIEGO and RAUL we're very patience and was recommending things without putting pressure, he came to the table a couple time to check on our food and make sure we didn’t need anything while we were eating but still gave us our space and time to eat and relax in our own time. We started with the empanadas and tostones rellenos, and it was perfect for the food we got. We got a picada for two “Carne llanera” (medium) that comes with steam potatoes and fried sweet plantain, the meat was tender and had that particular charcoal Smokey flavor very características of this type of preparation, the picada include tostones and arepas, match perfect with the meat and of course potatoes and plantains were perfect, the portion was big, it was a lot of meat. And we finished with a “Tres leches Natas” that we shared, it was fantastic, really creamy and actually it wasn’t that sweet, it was perfect. Prices were very good for the quality of food they served. Pictures will not make justice for the great flavors and textures we ate.

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is a cozy American restaurant chain that offers classic comfort food and features an onsite general store. The establishment is known for its warm and inviting atmosphere, serving up favorites like Meat Biscuits with a choice of breakfast meat. While the quality of service can vary based on how busy they are, visitors can expect a wait time, even with a reservation made through the app. However, once seated, guests can enjoy soft and delicious biscuits followed by fresh and delightful entrees.
I truly enjoy going to Cracker Barrel! They have great home-made food, so some seasonal items. And the store is awesome. Found a few gifts for others, & a few for myself.

A Total Disappointment at Cracker Barrel Pembroke Pines Today, my partner and I visited this Cracker Barrel, and unfortunately, it was the worst experience we’ve ever had at any location—and we’ve dined at many Cracker Barrels across the country. From the beginning, everything went downhill: • The bread was raw, literally undercooked. • One of the side dishes arrived at the end of the meal, long after everything else. • My meat was completely burnt and overcooked, so I had to send it back. • My husband had to eat his food cold while waiting for my plate to be redone. • I spent more time waiting than actually eating. . They only put one paper napkin per person . The salt shaker's hygiene was the worst: the salt didn't come out. The only positive aspect was our waitress. She was genuinely kind, apologetic, and did her best to handle the situation with grace. It was clear she felt bad about what was happening. It’s truly disappointing that the kitchen’s quality fell so far below the brand’s usual standards. I sincerely hope management takes this feedback seriously—no customer should have to go through such a poor dining experience. It was one of my favorite restaurants and I definitely wouldn't go back.

Our server, Jessie, was amazing and so friendly and professional. He went above and beyond at all times. The food was alright, but definitely NOT reminiscent of the old Cracker Barrel. I missed that I couldn't get vinegar for my greens and the gravy on my chicken fried steak was pretty congealed like it had sat out. But overall the experience was pretty good
Grayson B — Google review
Extremely disappointing experience at this location. As a regular Cracker Barrel customer who visits other locations without issue, this was unnecessarily complicated and frustrating. Multiple system failures: • App wouldn’t work (demanded non-existent update) • Inventory systems disconnected (website showed items as available when they weren’t) • Called for phone order, told to use app, app failed, redirected to website Poor service recovery: • Roast beef “ran out” after I’d already ordered and paid online • Manager only offered a drink as compensation for the major inconvenience • Final order was wrong - manager removed entire meal instead of replacing as discussed SERIOUS FOOD SAFETY ISSUE: Found a green bean in my fried apples container when I didn’t order any green beans. This suggests cross-contamination problems that could be dangerous for people with allergies. In addition, the sides were served cold. Bottom line: This location has operational and food safety issues that other Cracker Barrel locations don’t have. The combination of technical failures, inventory problems, inflexible management support, and cross-contamination makes this unacceptable. I’ll stick to other locations. Management needs to address these systematic problems immediately. Second visit to this location, definitely my last!

Cracker Barrel Was Just Okay The food was fine—not bad, but nothing special either. What really stood out was the lack of service. Our waiter only came to the table once, so it felt a bit rushed and impersonal. Not the worst experience, but definitely room for improvement.

This eatery has been around for quite a while. It combines olde country style home cooking with a general store for unique and not so unique shopping. Both are worth the visit. Friendly service in both areas. Prices are competitive. Food is good. Adequate free parking. Entrance a little crowded so wheelchair access might be a challenge. Rewards program may worthwhile for some people. Some specialty menu items are worth coming back to try. Outside checkers and rocking chairs. What's not to like. P.S. The Cracker Barrel logo is just fine the way it is.

Been going to this Cracker Barrel for years and unfortunately, they always seem to have issues with the kitchen and it was no exception on August 3 slow service poor quality , reduced portion sizes, increased prices country charm sanitized with the new modern interior.I can’t see going back to this location again it’s not worth it. You can get a much better breakfast elsewhere. Also if you want milk for your coffee and not those ridiculous creamers, they’re gonna charge you for a full carton of milk like they did us. $65.28 was what it cost for breakfast for two ridiculously expensive for the subpar quality and service.

If you're on the hunt for a delightful pizza experience, look no further than Fantasy Pizza! This vibrant eatery serves up classic NYC-style pies alongside calzones, pasta, and fresh salads in a lively sports-themed atmosphere adorned with memorabilia and TVs. Recently revamped with new booths and decor, it offers a cozy yet energetic vibe perfect for enjoying your meal. The friendly staff adds to the welcoming ambiance; they go above and beyond to ensure you feel right at home.
Had the chance to try Fantasy Pizza. The young lady who took my order was very pleasant and very friendly. I ordered their lunch special of 2 slices and a drink. I ordered with pepperoni so it was a slight up charge but not much. The pizza was delicious. I would have taken a picture but I was too hungry and ate it. I had to stop myself from ordering another slice because it was that good. Will go back again for sure.

This has always been our go-to for great pizza and service, but lately the service hasn’t been as good as before. I read in the comments they changed owners and so now it makes sense. I placed a phone order for pick up. Twenty minutes later when arriving to pick up the pizza, they hadn’t even started on it. All the workers were just sitting around not doing anything. When asked why they hadn’t even started on the pizza, the response from the cashier was, “sorry I forgot to tell them to do it” So unfortunate because this was the best pizza place in the area but like they say, all great things must come to an end.

My sister and I decided to come her to spend some quality girl time. I found this place on TikTok and was really excited it a Haitian owned pizza place. We arrived around 8:30p my sister ordered half and half wings ( half sweet chili and half medium ). I ordered the griot pizza, wings, and the rolls. The restaurant closes at 9p we received our food at 8:59p. We asked the waitress if we could eat inside she kindly told us no they were closing in one minute. We sat down outside to eat and my sister noticed she did not get what she ordered she went straight back literally 9:03p. The waitress was gone and so was the two gentlemen with her. There was one individual left inside who came to the door and pretended not to speak English. Very disappointed in the quality of the food and the service. Would not recommend.

It's more like a 0 star. My first and last time there. I order chicken wing which had no flavor. It tasted like freezer burn. All of it was put in the garbage. The pasta sauce for the pizza was from can. The garlic bread was terrible. I don't see why they have 4 star. Worst experience ever🤮🤮🤮

I’ve always enjoyed a simple slice of pizza and a coke. Well in this case a Pepsi... but nonetheless it’s been one of my favorite places to run in before 4pm and get a special deal. The last few months there have been significant changes to the place, new booths, tables, decor and fresh paint. No changes to the garlic rolls and pizza which I truly enjoy. I did notice the lunch special went up but it’s ok because they still have a great deal going on. Always a favorite glad to see the new look too, don’t change the taste!

I've been a customer of this place for over 15 years... The pizza kept me coming back... I guess it must have just changed owners, because the pizza is completely different... Not in a good way. First I'll say that the waitress was very nice very polite service was friendly. Now to the food... I am kindly and highly recommending that whoever bought this restaurant, reach out to the old owner, and have them come back to give you and show you the original pizza recipe. The original Pizza recipe was amazing... It was crispy crunchy soft dough with just the perfect amount of cheese throughout the whole pizza all the way up to the crust, it was delicious... And the pizza sauce was also perfectly balanced. Unfortunately the pizza that I had today was complete opposite... This new pizza recipe is terrible... It has so much cheese on it (a big No-No... 101 of pizza making) because it leads to all the other problems that I'm going to describe below... There was so much (unbalanced) cheese on my pizza, that the sauce never had a chance to evaporate, the cheese was like a big plastic tarp over the sauce which didn't allow the sauce adhere to the bread... When I took a bite of my pizza the entire cheese slid off my pizza because the sauce was a pool of water/sauce. The bottom of the pizza dough was too tough and the pizza sauce, simply too liquified and watery, to the point the sauce runs off the pizza like water. I ordered wings... Also low quality, but I won't even go there. This restaurant has been there over 15 years... I'd hate for this landmark to disappear. Please please please 🙏 contact the old owners and have them come back to show you the ingredients and how to make a proper Pizza. I really wish you do, because I'd like to come back. When someone buys a restaurant they are buying the restaurant because of its success And the success is usually an attribution of the food It doesn't make sense, to buy a restaurant and then change its recipes.

Chick-fil-A is a beloved fast-food chain that specializes in mouthwatering chicken sandwiches and crispy nuggets, complemented by a variety of salads and sides. Many patrons express gratitude for the consistent quality and friendly service they experience at their local Chick-fil-A, which has become a staple in their community. Despite some fluctuations in the mall's atmosphere over the years, the dedicated staff remains courteous and hardworking.
Thankful for all the years I've had with this Chic Fil A being close to home! The mall has had its ups and downs, but Chic Fil A staff are always so polite and busy! Sadly the last few years I've gone, their cookies were no longer fresh/warm unless you ask to reheat them, but I appreciate that the food is always delicious, and staff is very polite. I still have the free cow plushie I got many years ago for waiting on my cookie 🍟🍔🍪🐮

This has to be THE WORST store! It’s never smooth sailing! Doesn’t matter if you do pick up, mobile order or in person. It’s always a mess! I ordered something while sitting in the parking lot simply because I don’t feel like dealing with the attitude of the ladies that’s work there! Ordered online at 10:11am went to around to the drive through and waited and scanned just to be told that my order was cancelled by the app which isn’t true! Because I’ve been to Boca, Fort Lauderdale and the chickfil in that same area and picked up late around 10:40 I was still able to get my order! Please keep in my that I was directed to go in another lane which is why I was late a minute late! These people made me stay at this super for 38 minutes just to tell me that they can’t accommodate my order or issue refund because it was done on the app! One manager offered to make my order minutes later to be told that there’s no more food! After being there for almost an hour! I hate that this store is closer to our home. I stop giving chickfil my money years ago BECAUSE OF THIS STORE! I just can’t understand how they JUST CANT GET IT! Customer service sucks!

I've been to dozens of Chick-fil-A's over the years, and was always amazed at the level of customer service which seemed a part of the corporate culture. This location is pretty much the only one I've ever been to where the employees loudly talked to each other, filled up their own drinks ( I stood patiently waiting while a employee filled her own plastic bottle with soda and was ignored by three employees) and basically didn't seem to care about anything. Of the more than half a dozen who were in uniform, none were friendly, professional, helpful or even close to the usual level of Chick-fil-A service. I asked for extra pickles and received first an attitude from the employee, who literally clicked her teeth when she realized she had to go around back to fulfill my humble request, and came back with what you can see in the attached photo. After spending around $20 for a kid's meal and a basic combo for myself, I'd expected better. Nope.

Great store and staff and food amazing! Enjoyed having their sandwiches and their support of teacher appreciation week at Cooper City High School. They are great to their community. Thank you!

Order 5053 Got the spicy chicken deluxe sandwich meal and received a non spicy cold and greasy sandwich. I have my receipt and wanted to make a formal complaint to corporate but there is no store number or team member name. The restaurant is in Pembroke Lakes mall .Will definitely not be going back.

The front desk saleswomen are rude and impolite with Uber Eats. We would appreciate it if you could be kind. We are working just like you.

Pizza restaurant
If you're on the hunt for a unique pizza experience, look no further than MOD Pizza. This trendy counter-serve chain offers an industrial-chic vibe where you can customize your own pizzas with an impressive selection of toppings—all for one price! During my visit to the Pembroke Pines location, I was thrilled to discover that I could pile on as many ingredients as I wanted while watching my creation bake right before my eyes.
Always a great experience visiting Mod. The pizza is affordable, quickly served, and delicious. The employees are always very friendly and helpful if you need assistance. One of the best pizza places in Pembroke Pines!!

Having the option to make my own with Cauliflower crust was new; but I suggest study the menu a bit before ordering. My slices weren’t cut properly, but I still had the experience.. the had a punch drink though that was AMAZING (definitely quenched my thirst) . I will visit again

My grand-daughter, wife and myself decided to try something different for lunch today. We came for the first time to MOD PIZZA at the Pembroke Pines location, the place where you could add as many toppings as you wany in your pizza for the same price and the best part is that the pizza is cooked right in-front of you. I've created my pizza with many toppings and it came out PRETTY DAM DELICIOUS!!! The restaurant has the option to deliver, option to dine outdoors and the option to dine indoors. Great customer service and always with a smile on her face. We loved the pizza, we loved the restaurant and we loved the attention which means there will be plenty of more visits to the MOD PIZZA in Pembroke Pines. Great job guys!!! Keep it up.

I was running desperately low on battery. It was the cherry on top of a very garbage day. But not only did the staff of this place come in clutch with a spare charger, but they let me sit there.Eating garlic bread and a coke. Thank you so much for your warm hospitality. Marie, thanks for walking with me to my transport.

Everything is fresh, made in front of you, each person picks the exact toppings they want and the chocolate dessert at the end is really good too. The employees make this place amazing. They're so friendly and eager to make you a really nice personal masterpiece.

First time here, staff was super helpful and courteous. We ordered 4 mod size pizzas. They were delicious. This place is great. Pizzas take less than 13 minutes to cook. The mod size pizza is a good size for 1 person, it’s $8.95 with unlimited toppings. If you want to add more meat all you need to do is ask.

Nice idea for a quick meal. The pizza options are simple and tasted good. Simple menu to choose from with a set styled Pizza in 3 sizes and an alternate crust option; salads also in 3 sizes and ready-made key lime mini cakes. You can also custom make pizza with 30 toppings to choose from. Fountain drinks are available and fresh lemonade. I loved the blackberry lemonade. Pizza fired quickly because it's a thin crust. We had a mini cheese and mini Tristan with a mini Caesar salad and lemonade (approx $30). Flavors were good... enjoyed the pesto on the Tristan.

We went for a pizza each one. Almost everyone had two pizzas. Then we ordered Cheese Bread. Then the giant cookie. Then No Name cakes. This place is the best and the staff is the best of any MOD!

American restaurant
Brimstone Woodfire Grill is a cozy bistro located near Paradise Cove Water Park, offering a delectable dining experience. The restaurant's picturesque patio provides the perfect setting to savor a leisurely meal in the beautiful Pembroke Pines weather. Known for its delightful brunch, Brimstone features an array of mouthwatering options ranging from hearty breakfast classics to lighter, health-conscious dishes.
I recently hosted a group of friends for dinner at brimstone, and I have to say it was one of the most fabulous nights I I could’ve asked for. The service was exceptional and the attention that they gave us was beyond anything I’ve ever received at any other restaurant. The food was spectacular and we simply could not get enough of it. From the salad all the way to the dessert. The whole menu was delicious, and we love the fact that they were able to create mocktails for us since we don’t drink. We will definitely be returning, especially for the DJ vibe that they have on the weekends. Love love loved it

We just did a Sunday lunch celebration party in their private boardroom with a set menu called the power lunch. It was excellent. The food was outstanding. The service was awesome Jason and Allison and the event manager Raysa was fantastic she helped us make a fantastic luncheon for our family. We highly recommend The Brimstone in Pembroke Lakes Shoppes, a super place to plan your next party, totally stress-free, knowing well that the Food and Service will be excellent. Thank you. from the bottom of our hearts.

This is a beautiful decorated restaurant offering inside and outdoor dining. Outdoor being more casual with a DJ. Our experience here was excellent. The staff is nice and accommodating. We even requested a booth in less busy area since we had a baby and a toddler and it was given. Our server Hernan and his team were nice and attentive. All his suggestions and service were on point. All the food and drinks we ordered came out very flavorful and tasty. Their key lime pie was so delicious with a nutty crust to die for.

It was the first time that we had visited and we left impressed. The prices were reasonable, on the upper end, but it was completely worth it. No regrets. The BRG tostones were literally to die for. amazing. The spicy marinara pasta was great and the steak!! We loved our server!!! He was so sweet

What an amazing experience! The atmosphere was perfect for a date night, and the food was incredible from start to finish. Julio took care of us and made the night even better — he knew exactly what to recommend, from appetizers to dessert and drinks. Everything he suggested was spot-on and absolutely delicious. Truly a great place to relax, enjoy, and be treated right. We’ll definitely be back!
