I'm
being
slightly
generous
with
the
2
stars
(for
the
mojitos.)
This
place
lacked
any
of
the
local
character
you
find
down
in
the
village.
Apart
from
a
large
group
from
one
of
the
resorts
across
the
street,
it
was
mostly
empty.
The
conspicuous
absence
of
any
local
people
was
very
telling.
Carne
asada
was
nicely
flavored
but
overcooked
and
dry.
Pollo
asado
seemed
like
the
meat
had
mostly
been
removed
before
grilling,
and
was
an
inedible
pile
of
nicely
flavored
bones
and
sinew.
The
guacamole
and
salsa
were
nice,
but
the
multiple
ramekin
presentation
was
sort
of
irritating.
The
tiny
carafe
with
about
a
teaspoon
of
habanero
sauce
was
a
pretentious
slap
in
the
face
from
a
place
called
"habanero."
I
waited
for
some
time
for
more
but
ended
up
finishing
my
meal
long
before
anyone
asked
me
about
it
(as
no
one
ever
did.)
The
staff
were
busy
from
the
large
group
but
certainly
not
friendly
or
charming
in
any
way,
apart
from
one
girl
who
seemed
to
finally
take
the
reins
but
didn't
have
much
support.
My
quote
at
the
time
was
"I
don't
think
these
guys
are
from
around
here...."
Plenty
of
places
in
such
a
laid
back
peninsula
have
slower
service
but
it
is
usually
friendly,
fun
and
warm.
This
place
was
a
headless
chicken.
The
mojitos
were
actually
very
nice.
I
would
have
had
more
if
they'd
seen
my
empty
glass
in
the
15
minutes
it
was
empty,
and
didnt
take
another
15
to
make
me
another.
There
are
too
many
good
restaurants
down
in
the
village
for
me
to
ever
bother
with
this
place
again.
