    The restaurant is small. Depending on where you are seated the sun will blind you at certain times (no blinds to lower to help with this issue) and sound reverberates so it will feel like other patrons are talking right into your ear even though they are yards away. The establishment must not know how to store their wine as the bottle we ordered ( a Mendel Malbec 2020) had a dried out cork broke into pieces and the wine was compromised. We ordered two small plates, the beef empanadas and the grilled octopus salad with white beans both of which were well prepared. Our main entre was mixed. Hubby ordered the lamb shank with herbed goat cheese polenta. The braised lamb shank was well seasoned and very tender and he enjoyed it very much. I ordered the chefs "take on" Paella and was not as pleased. Just not like anything I have ever had and it was way off expectations. There was a strange seasoning there very off putting and the rice was an attempt at a risotto I think that failed. The mussels and clams were nice but the shrimp and scallops were tough. I wouldn't recommend it. The service was good and our waitress very attentive but not overly. Overall I would give this restaurant another chance but stay away from the Paella.
