    We ordered the Iberia pork paella and it was disappointing. The paella stuck to the pan and the pork was dry and not juicy. It was obviously overcooked. We had the tuna tacos and those were good. The octopus was good. The 20 percent tip that was included was not justified. There was really no service except the food delivery. Tables were close together and the maitre’d stuck us right in the middle between 2 very close tables. Was very disappointing this time for us - no service, overcooked paella -

    Food was excellent and we all had a great time. We’ve been here at this restaurant before but it was our friends’ first time to eat here. They all loved the food and drinks that we ordered especially the sangria flight. My wife loved that your restaurant is celiac friendly and is very mindful of patrons that have gluten allergy. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Hope to be back soon.

    Delicious food and tapas. The paella was fantastic but the small plates are a must. We loved the brussel sprouts, crab croquettes and the empanadas! Took some time to get seated despite a reservation.

    The food and beverages were wonderful. My wife had a couple of fantastic mocktails. I had a glass of the Teleferic Sangria which was really refreshing. For tapas to start we had Gazpacho plus tomato on toast points with Chipotle butter and then whole shrimp in a spicy oil. I wish I could remember the names of the dishes. We finished with the Lobster Paella which like all the Paella on the menu is fantastic. The only problem we had was a miscommunication with the waitress. She did not hear us order the Lobster Paella and we could not hear her verify our order. We were right next to a speaker playing very loud music. So, we waited 45 minutes to find out it had not been started. They managed to rush an order for us and worked with us to get us out and to our movie on time.
