    This restaurant was highly recommended by some friend of ours. My wife and I must have caught them on an off night. We found the service so-so, very dark space, drinks were way overpriced for what you got, and the food was mediocre. My steak kabobs were tough and my wife's chicken kabobs were over cooked. Very dry. We would not recommend this restaurant. S & S Connecticut

    We loved the decor and hidden away quality of the Del Rey. Our service was outstanding. Drinks were excellent and generous. The tapas menu was hit and miss. Great artichokes, decent empanada, way over sauced broccolini, ok chicken skewers. It might be nice to have a few less spicy items to mix in with the others. With a little menu change, we would be back!

    Over ambitious expensive tapas restaurant with a fabulous vibe, good service, but poorly executed dishes. Impressive response from the GM says it all. Please do give them a shot, I will certainly be back.

    Food was fine. Tapas style so glad we were only two people. Tables were close together on the patio so conversations could be heard all around. The ambiance and vibe was nice on a balmy spring evening.
