   Our sever was very friendly & accommodating, But unfortunately the food was an absolute mess. There were dishes burnt & the food was frozen not fresh. We haven’t been here in 2 years unfortunately their food has gone downhill super bad.

   They had a very fun New Year’s endless tapas dinner, which was tasty, a very fair price, and fun because you could try everything. The service was great and very accommodating.

   It was a not so great start to New Years Eve when we arrived for our reservations and had to wait in a long line out the door to be checked in. The group in front of us indicated that they had been waiting 20 minutes and it was now past their reservation time. When we did get to the host station, we were told that they didn't know how long our wait at the bar would be because people were lingering at their tables longer than usual and they couldn't ask them to leave. They had a decent system of having people waiting in the bar area and the bartenders were great - we only waited there about 15 minutes past our reservation time. Once we were seated, our waitress was perfect. She checked on us often without being overbearing. We ordered unlimited tapas and timing was slow for the first couple, but then they came out at a better, more consistent, pace. Tapas were fine - better than what I expected for a busy New Year Eve night, but I have had the unlimited tapas there on a regular night and thought they were better then. All in all, it was a nice evening with decent food. Staff were hustling and pleasant.

   Food took about 15-20 mins every time we ordered another round. Made it seem like the $55/ unlimited tapas not worth it honestly. Service wasn’t the greatest. Had to keep reminding the server to refill out waters and bring more napkins.. basic things a server should keep tabs on.. food was great. This was our 2nd experience here and the 1st one was amazing!

   We had great food and our server was pleasant. We had an unpleasant experience with one of the food runners. None of us could hear this person as they were telling us the name of the dish. When we asked them to speak up they threw the plate on the table and stormed off, which was extremely unprofessional.

   Overall, this was an unpleasant brunch. The noise level made conversation challenging to say the least. The food was good but the person I was with ordered a starter for their meal but it was brought out immediately and not with my food. The noise in the restaurant is the reason we won’t return.

   All you can eat tapas is a must. Service and food quality are through the roof. Portion sizes were generous and dish presentation was excellent. NA cocktails were delicious. Only complaint is the lighting situation was dark, but the vibes/atmosphere were great at the same time.

    Good place. Always a fun atmosphere. Service is friendly enough. The tapas portions have become significantly smaller. As regulars our party has had to double up on all tapas selections more recently to allow everyone to reasonably have a bite. Portions are not so shareable anymore taking tapas small plates to a different level. Smaller portions at a 23-30% price increase over the last two years. Double hit. Still enjoy the place but we’ve cut back on our visits. Chef’s paella is great.
