This place never disappoints us. I asked for a table in a quiet spot and got it. It’s very loud in here due to the crowd, but we were able to have a great conversation and an amazing time. Our server was amazing helped us order enough food for the 6 of us and we didn’t have any leftovers. But we were all Satisfied. Highly recommend their Iberian old fashion, it was delicious. And this is why this place is always packed!

My husband and I had brunch before heading to the Duke/Tech basketball game. Our first visit. We thought it was excellent. We had the patatas bravas and the potato tortilla to start. I had the Bulla burger and he had the Huevos Bulla. Both were really good. We ended with Churros and the Blueberry and Ricotta pancakes (my only mistake; while good, too much after the other food). I tried both versions of the Margarita. Again, would order either of them again. We also thought the brunch pricing was a great value. Our server, Sophia, was very friendly and efficient. Bulla is a definite winner.

We moved from Atlanta years ago and always loved this restaurant and we came back for a visit and it was as great as before. The value is still there and all the flavors were great. Ordered a Mescalita and it was the perfect balance for the drink.
