    I booked a reservation at this restaurant in Cancun, Mexico in celebration of my 40th birthday last week an dit was nothing short of amazing. The decor of the entire restaurant, including the bathroom, is immaculate. Their drinks are very tasty (I personally recommend the Lychee Martini), and the food is DIVINE. The portions are pretty big as far as the meats/steaks are concerned, so I recommend sharing the entree with another person. To top it off, they did a wonderful carrot cake presentation for my birthday and had some of their staff sing happy birthday to me. Overall, I give this place a perfect 5-star rating (and hope they consider opening a location in my hometown of NYC)!
