    I am a big fan of Chef José Andrés, so it was another pleasure to dine at Jaleo. The tapas were amazing and very tasty. The cocktails were also creative, it was nice different experience. The desserts were the happy ending of the evening. I want to thank Galileo R, our server was incredibly helpful and made recommendations based on our requests. He is well trained and very gentle.

    The music was fun, the room was nice and intimate. Excellent way to celebrate an anniversary. The paella and the octopus were show stoppers and I absolutely loved all the unique options in their wine pairing.
