Wonderful staple in downtown Walnut Creek - perfect for a bite to eat and drink in between shopping, or meeting up with friends. Dishes are meant for sharing, and service is professional and on point. I do not drink alcohol anymore, but very much enjoyed their mocktails. Well done, and am glad the restaurant exists to provide lovely tapas, paella, and lively atmosphere.

We had early reservations at 5:15pm but got there even earlier but luckily they open at 4:30pm. We were promptly seated and Paul our amazing server brought us delicious crisp martinis and a yummy prawn cocktail. The dining room is tasteful and cozy. Our dinners were so good, prime rib cooked perfectly. The au gratin potato's and creamed spinach were very good. No baked potato's on the menu unfortunately and 2 options for salad, ceasar and mixed green with vinaigrette dressing but those were both yummy as well and the pear bread pudding with carmel sauce was scrumptious! Thanks for the recommendation Paul! We will definately be back!
