I had the large caldo de mariscos as a takeout order. The soup had fish, shrimp, squid, peas, and carrots. It came with a hot sauce which I added in the soup. The soup was delicious. The only reason I gave it a four star was because I think the portion should have been bigger, it also came with a tiny styrofoam cup with rice. The restaurant itself appeared to be clean as well as the bathroom. I do believe that the area behind the register needs to be better organized, it was a disaster. All in all a fine restaurant in my opinion and I will be going back and try something else.
