Awesome atmosphere and servers, best during the summer in the open atrium. Get the sangria and lobster and lots of tapas, and of course finish with desserts and the passionate dessert dude

Order like 4-5 tapas for couple I think so u can taste different things. Pallea, stuffed mushrooms and fried artichokes are great. Try mango sangria or mojitos (or both lol)

Omg...best hidden gem ever! Order the 3-course dinner....it's enough to feed a small village & SO tasty too! Quality AND quantity for an amazing price!!!

The pulpo a la Gallega is a definite must! Along with the oysters, croquetas, lobster, chorizo, gambas al ajillo, filet mignon and mojitos!

Sauté mushrooms and mix seafood in diablo sauce are must try! Fragrant and just right spiciness! Perfecto!

The pulpo dishes are delicious. Fried potatoes are just potato chips.

Try the Oysters - Try them with the onion & vinegar sauce!!!
Lauren SantiagoSeptember 30, 2011
Veal sevillana is slam-bamming. Sauteed in onions, mushrooms, & peppers, smothered in a brown sauce. Do it.
John CorbinOctober 12, 2013
unlike most restaurants. it is quite difficult to come here and eat food. the service is extremely lacking... on the other hand, if you enjoy waiting as an activity, you cannot do better than here!
