I looked up Tapas restaurants near me and La Prensa came up. The reviews looked good so I booked a semi-large party (10 ppl). The atmostphere is casual and prices were reasonable. Everyone raved about the food and the service was wonderful. A couple of people had the octopus dish (cannot remeber the name of it), and they raved about it! I had some of the tappas and everything was absolutely delicious. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough - please give it a go!

Delicious & fun food. I could make a meal with just the small plates but then I would have missed the yummy enchiladas. Make sure to get the fried eggplant chips -- my husband, who won't eat eggplant, had seconds. Can't wait to go back.

The tapas and appetizers were better than the entrees. The tables are too small and the waitress did not remove the used dishes at anytime during the meal which can build up with tapas orders and appetizers. We would return, but stick with the tapas menu.

Creative menu and very tasty selections. We ordered the chips/salsa/guac as an appetizer. For entrees, we had a Harissa Chicken Rice bowl, a Korean Bulgogi Burrito and steak fajitas. Everything was tasty, and our server was superb. The place is small and the tables are bit awkward, but other than that, it's a great place to go for a casual yet gourmet meal.

Food is good with outstanding flavors but overpriced. Servings are small as expected of tapas, will be good to have free bread or chips to go with tapas food.
