    This was phenomenal, my wife and I had to stay in town for thanksgiving and needed a pick me up the day before. This did not disappoint, reminded me of eating my Spanish grandmothers food. Paella was phenomenal, I am so glad we opted for the Premium Prawn Rice, it was very umami and so authentic. It was an absolutely beautiful experience, the food was delicious and beautiful, very thoughtful portions, we left full but not overly stuffed. The staff was polite, professional and funny. We will absolutely return and strongly recommend.

    A wonderful variety available from the unlimited small plate menu. Cauliflower and the beet salad were delicious. In fact, every dish we had we ordered seconds of. Service was warm, friendly, and fast. The space can be a bit noisy but we will be back often!
