"Si tu intención es ir a escuchar banda —que, por cierto, toca bien— mientras tomas algo y comes mariscos, es un buen lugar para visitar. Solo considera que, cuando la banda está tocando, prácticamente no se puede platicar. La comida es buena, pero los meseros son un poco descuidados; en mi caso olvidaron un pedido y no me informaron que el pastel de cumpleaños no era de cortesía. Algo que definitivamente no me agradó es que se puede fumar dentro del lugar y que insistieran en que dejara propina. No lo hice porque, sinceramente, el servicio no me pareció adecuado."

"Exelente ambiente para comer, con su caldito de camarón de bienvenida, variedad de salsas muy sabrosas...variedad de Preparación de Mariscos, este restaurante cuenta con un CHEFF CREATIVO, también tienen muchas bebidas, según el día que se festeja hacen un platillo especial, en general es un lugar distinto a los otros de Mariscos y bebidas. pues cuentan con personal con muy buena actitud, niñeras muy responsables en el área exclusiva para mantener a los niños entretenidos con diferentes actividades, sus meseros dinámicos que participan y ayudan a amenizar el lugar, disfrutando el momento ellos y nosotros y los fines de semana toca alguna Banda Sinaloense o grupo norteño. Tiene buen estacionamiento. El restaurante no es grande, vale la pena esperar mesa un poco para disfrutar. Si debo destacar la rápida preparación de los alimentos y que llegan a la mesa todos al mismo tiempo sin que nadie en la mesa este esperando su platillo."
