   We were disappointed. The hostess was rude, the table was way to small for a venue that features shareable plates, the service was lagging and the food was fair. Despite this, the place was packed. Perhaps our experience was unusual but I can neither recommend it nor do I anticipate returning.

   We went on a Sunday night do not crowded or noisy. Our driver was completely wonderful and the food was amazing.

   The food (and the sangria) was delicious, and the portions were great. They had plenty of vegetarian and gluten free options. It was cozy and they were playing good music. All in all, it was delightful.

   We’ve been coming here for many years and have seen the quality decline. We’ve also seen menu items changed, but I suppose that’s to be expected. I feel like some of the sauces on the foods are not homemade, and mayonnaise out of a squeeze bottle now passes for something fancier. I ordered albondigas yesterday and the meatballs were so hard that I couldn’t even break them with my fork. Our server was polite, but not very attentive in terms of pacing the food coming out. Typically we get meats and cheeses which come out first and they came out towards the middle. Not the worst thing in the world of course. It had been a while since we had been here because of these types of issues that make the very expensive prices not quite worth it. I don’t think we’ll be back.

   We always enjoy going there. It just seems like the portions are getting smaller for the meat and cheese boards.

   We all found this place to be too loud to have a conversation--and this was true even after we asked to be moved further away from a very boisterous four-top. The first table we sat at was wobbly and we had to ask for a shim to stabilize it; the table we moved to was also wobbly (I grabbed the shim from the first table to rectify the travelling problem). The tapas were good--though we would've appreciated knowing that the lamb chop serving worked for two, not three people. Everything else we have was dividable and tasty. The service was distracted. By the time we got someone's attention for a drink refill and the drinks arrived, we'd finished all our food. We all agreed we'd give it another try---in the spring or summer, when we could sit outside and be able to talk.

   Made a reservation and even though restaurant was quite empty (it was a Tuesday night) they tried to sit us in the bar high table area. Crazy. We insisted on a table in the quieter restaurant section. Both waiters in that section were new but nice and had good attitudes. Food was very good and priced well.

    The tapas are mid. Nothing incredible. But the sangria and ambiance are great.
