My boyfriend and I had an amazing anniversary/Valentine’s Day date here! I only requested a nicely located seat for the event, but they went above and beyond! Rose petals, candle, drinks and a lovely dessert! We were blown away by the attention to detail.A sign of great service is when servers refill your glasses, and I can assure you that our glasses were never more than half empty! The food was great, though it was my first time trying Spanish food so I have nothing to compare to.The seafood paella portions were amazing for 2, and we were so full we had to take it to go! The presentation was wonderful and much appreciated.And last but certainly not least, there was a live band and Spanish dancer - not only did we get an amazing meal, but also an amazing show! Hiiighly recommend for a date night or special event ❤️

Good Spanish Restaurant.excellent service and good cuisine m.A few things to say. The jam croquet is flavorless, good technique but zero flavor, the veal solomillo is not the best beef, maybe is a choice beef but I don’t think so.And the meat was to compress, dense rest of the plate was good.I think if you expect a Michelin star restaurant this is not Michelin star.It is just a good restaurant
The lobster paella (paella de langosta) was delicious.At $44 it was of course not cheap but I really think it is great value for what you get.The portion size is very large and a large percentage of it is all kinds of seafood.Compared to other paellas I've had its easily the best taste and best value.Service was great and parking was right across the street and free with the restaurants validation.Very convenient! Update: Came back again for the Oxtail and Mushroom Paella.It was also much better taste and value than other paellas I've had.The oxtail was so tender and there were other ingredients like chicken and artichoke that I did not expect but were a welcome addition.I would have liked a bit more oxtail but overall the portion size was great.I would say I still like the lobster one the best though.The potato salad and octopus tapas were great as well.The octopus was very tender, not rubbery at all and both tasted great without being salty.I would say this place has cemented itself as one of my favorites in the area and would definitely recommend people to get any of the paellas.
