PRICE:
Frommer's Highly Recommended

Located on a jungle-facing open-air back patio of the Plaza Yara strip mall, this place is surprisingly intimate and atmospheric, especially at night. Subdued lighting and vines draping down from the high ceiling make you feel as if you are almost in the jungle. The menu is inventive and eclectic. I highly recommend starting things off with the quesadilla of caramelized onions, brie, and fresh mango. For a main dish, the mixed seafood grill for two features shrimp, squid, and fresh fish prepared on a wood-fired grill with a tropical fruit salsa on the side. The dessert menu changes regularly, but almost always features some rich chocolate concoction, as well as a flavored crème brûlée.
