Love, love, love this place.
And the service and food are remarkable.
Our waitress was Mauren both time and she was spectacular.
She made our Christmas dinner awesome and took great care of us.
10 Stars!

The service here was so bad lol.
Our server realized we didn’t speak Spanish and immediately changed his attitude and became inattentive.
We were seated outside and he stopped coming outside after our food had been served so we had to go inside to ask for the bill. I didn’t even start my review talking about the food because it was quite mid.
Paella was cooked unevenly, some parts were dry, others had more sauce.
Skip this spot.

A surprisingly great dining experience for a last minute large group dinner! My friend’s intended birthday venue didn’t have enough space for the group, so she spoke to Xixón who were able to prepare a very large table on the second floor.
Our server Carlos did a fantastic job getting everyone’s orders correctly, opening and serving what seemed like 5-6 bottles of wine attentively to those who were drinking it, and processing multiple bills without issues.
When I asked about the Virgin Xixón, he said it was very good because it had fresh fruit juices. He was right: the Virgin Xixón was surprisingly delightful in appearance, with orange juice, pineapple juice layered under strawberry juice.
All the juices tasted freshly squeezed, cutely finished with a slice of orange and strawberry.
The large size of the glass meant I could keep sipping the glass and have plenty of the drink for the meal.
I would have the drink again if I went back while keeping alcohol free! The tapas menu is huge and I’m here for it.
There’s no way you won’t find something that’ll work for you, unless you have the unfortunate condition of disliking seafood, beef, ham, potatoes, eggs.
We shared a couple tapas and both were cooked freshly and seasoned well.
The Carrillera De Buey Al Vino Tinto (beef cheeks in red wine) was so tender and delightful.
It did look a little funny because it came under a full layer of fries (crunchy breaded fries, by the way).
We couldn’t see the bed cheek and had to move the fries for the photo hahaha.
The Buñuelos De Bacalao (cod fish fritters) were perfectly crispy and bite sized to pop in the mouth while waiting for the entrees. Many of my friends got steaks, which they all liked, but I got the Fabada Asturiana, a white bean stew with jamon, chorizo and morcilla.
It’s a Chef Special item that’s only offered on Saturdays, and lucky for me, we were there on a Saturday.
It was seasoned with just the proper amount of salt, considering the cured meats that were included in the stew, and the thickness of the white bean kept the dish hot and so comforting for a seasonally chilly January night.
I took a third of it home and equally enjoyed it later. The one problem I have is that their menu is so big that I’ll have to return a few more times to try everything I’m interested in! I’m eyeing their happy hour on Mondays-Thursdays and will go back!
