Overall it was an excellent culinary experience; fine dining combined with the rich culture of Spain. My business associate and I were able to enjoy quality wine, scrumptious appetizers and tasty entrees while discussing neighborhood development and the future of this great city. The service was a little delayed, but this was on account of the restaurant being a popular locale and our waiter being so charming that people at nearby tables kept trying to lure him into deeper conversation. I would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a solid place to settle corporate disputes, mend fences with a spurned lover or just have some wine with a close friend.

Great experience. We enjoyed our service. We ordered 9 tapas in total. Skirt steak, seafood pasta (can’t remember the name but it’s in the personal paella section) and sautéed mushroom were the best amongst all we ordered.

Food was great. Service was great. Saturday night, so very crowded. We were sat within 5 minutes. Parking is a chore, but if you stop in before your reservation, they wii give you a pass yo park at Whole Foods. The entire experience was very nice.

This seems like a hidden gem. Perhaps because it's a little secluded in terms of other places. But glad that we 'found' it. The food was AMAZING. Personally, I liked it better than Barcelona. The service was good and unlike Barcelona, we could talk more easily despite the place being busy and music playing over the speakers. While they don't have a full bar, they do serve a few cocktails and have an extensive selection of wines. Not to mention Sangria. I think this is our new favorite Tapas place. Looking forward to dining here again.
