Mita is a once in a lifetime experience. The respect to culture and history is incomparable. The delicacy of the food and the attention to detail was phenomenal. It felt like we were being transported to a different time and place. Every bite and attention to hospitality and description was impeccable.

It was so good we ate there 2 nights in a row. I definitely recommend the NYY Strip steak. It was soooo delicious! Also for appetizers the Yucka and the tapioca ones were yummy. The best desert is the chocolate tres leches!!! I can't recommend it enough. Plenty big enough for 2 people to share. Maria was an EXCELLENT waitress. If these items are not on the menu you can absolutely trust her recommendations! She knows her Latin American food!

i celebrated my birthday with 14 guests and every detail was seen to and taken care of, including a delectable chocolate cake. we enjoyed the 3-course brunch, each course arriving at the perfect time, food was served hot and very flavorful with plenty of leftovers. we had a relaxed meal and felt at home. Raquel, the owner, is welcoming and considerate, and her team reflects that. it’s a great spot for a date, catching up with friends, or to enjoy a solo meal - don’t miss out.

Elcielo was a wonderful dining experience. I cannot think of one change they could make to improve it. My wife, frankly, was somewhat skeptical but was impressed and walk out with me sharing my view.

Excellent customer service. Our server was fantastic. We sat outside on the patio closest to the TV near the center of a courtyard on the end seating where you could walk up to go Parking. I hope you share this with our server. He was fantastic. The food and drinks were great also.
