    Food was just ok. I ordered the Mixta salad which was very bland. Took 20+ minutes to get the bill after we asked for it. Won’t be back anytime soon.

    The lunch service was very slow, so we ended up asking to package it to go. I got the mixta salad and they didn’t provide salad dressing in the to go box :(

    We came for the paella and wow! The Socarrat was delightful and the seafood was Smokey yet tender. We throughly enjoyed our server Caroline who was quite entertaining to speak with at different points of our meal. My son also savored the gazpacho as an apologized and he was actually a little sad when he had his last spoonful as he wanted more. We had a wonderful meal with a lively ambiance that served to make this a truly memorable meal

    We have loved this place for years. However, the pallea is now SO much rice, and so little seafood or meat. Also, the duck we ordered was overly fatty and rare. I couldn't eat it. However, the tapas/apps were fantastic and service is always great. But we are pretty disappointed with the main courses.
