    Food & drinks very good. The sweet chili wings are amazing. Love their waterfront drink as well. Have been there a couple of times and the service is always excellent. The weight staff are very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend.

    AltoMar is a new addition to our community. Although the menu is limited, we were pleasantly surprised by the food and drinks. Everything we ordered came promptly and was truly delicious! We will definitely return!

    It’s very beautiful, the plátano boat with shrimp was amazing. The paella was ok. It lacked flavor and some of the seafood didn’t taste fresh. The coconut margarita was very good. I’d be back for drinks and apps.

    The vibe and view was good. The food took forever to come. We ordered salmon and it was very dry. We ask to switch the yuca for mash potatoes, never happened. We ordered dessert never came, had to leave without it. Upon leaving we told our server about the service, she apologized and gave us a slice of cake on the house. Maybe I’ll go back.

    Lovely atmosphere. A couple of the appetizers were just "ok". The ceviche, chicken and rice/beans were delicious. The Mojito was weak in it's alcohol content. But the staff and server could not be nicer. To be honest we were (2) people and it was $195.00 including the 18% tip that is already included. I think it was a bit pricey. I would give it overall a B- Thank you for this opportunity.

    Great atmosphere. Beautiful spot. Server was nice. Food needs major improvement. So do bathrooms. Nothing was great. Mussels were in a good sauce but the food could be so much better. Smash burger smelled strange. Hangar steak was raw instead of medium rare.

    Yesterday, I made a 7:15 p.m. reservation to celebrate my husband’s birthday. I arrived five minutes early, yet we still had to wait another 10 minutes to be seated. Unfortunately, the service only got worse from there. Our assigned server never came to our table, and we ended up receiving inconsistent service from several different servers. We were eventually told that our assigned server was overwhelmed and that her coworkers were helping cover her tables. After waiting about 20 minutes, someone finally came over to take our order. It then took over 45 minutes to receive our appetizers. Our assigned server never once checked on us, asked how everything was, or even refilled our water glasses. After waiting for over an hour for our food, we decided to ask for the bill and leave. To make matters worse, we were charged a gratuity for a server who never once came to check on our table of three. The restaurant itself is beautiful, but unfortunately, the service was absolutely horrible. I would not recommend this restaurant at all. Save yourself the money, time, and aggravation. A special occasion like a birthday deserves much better service than what we experienced.

    Beginning to end was a disaster, wrong food was brought to table and then it took 40 mins to get the correct item. These were cold appetizers which should’ve taken 5 mins to prep… only time server was seen is if we were flagging down. Finally had the chance to order an entree which took another 30+ mins to arrive and then was cold. Still tried to give yet another chance and ordered dessert. After waiting another 30 mins for a tres leches we had to threaten to get up and leave before our dessert was finally brought out. No waters brought to the table when we arrived, had to ask twice and wait 30 mins to even get a glass of water to the table. The whole thing felt like a bad joke and it was extremely upsetting given we were trying to celebrate a birthday which by the end we didn’t even want acknowledged because we just wanted to get out of there after what felt like a hostage crisis the entire time

    Very nice venue with water front views. The staff is nice, but seems understaffed. Very long wait times, spanning from 30 mins each time for an order or a round of drinks. The bathrooms had very bad maintenance issues and was very uncomfortable to use. The arroz chaufa was good. Drinks were kinda watery in my opinion and could be better. The chicken chopped cheese was non existent in size. It’s no comparison to a 179th street deli if you know what I mean. We ordered truffle fries and chicken chicharron, it never came after an hour, but made its way on to the bill. We asked for a manager who seemed indifferent to any of these issues. The bill was adjusted, but let’s just say I left hungry.
