    We went for the happy hour and really enjoyed their “Dominicanized” sushi. The Ay Vea and the El Fuertw were very good. Also enjoyed the Mofonguitos. Overall a pleasant experience with good music and good food in a great location.

    My dining partner and I were looking forward to El Tiesto based on their menu online. When we got there, the place was pretty much empty, and for a good reason. The live music was so loud that I had to yell to communicate with the maître d'. We took a table outside, hoping that would be better. Nope. We still couldn't hear one another. No worries because we couldn't get a server either. We left.

    This was my fiancés and I first time trying the restaurant. The food was good but the wait time felt like forever. I will give it a try again during non peak hours.

    Overall, the experience was really good. Food, music, and ambiance were great. Wish the layout and seating arrangements were better, but we had a great time. Service was slow at first, but got better as the night went on. Would definitely come back.

    I ordered sushi and a main dish and I specifically instructed the server to bring the main dish after the sushi, but she brought both at the same time, so I had to eat the hot dish first, and the sushi as a "desert." Food quality was good, however, and portions decent.

    Superb place to have a good bite and party like a rock star. Not a place for kids as the music is loud like club mode. I will be back!
