    Went w a large group, got horrible service. I ordered a cold dessert as an entree and was served last. Waitress unapologetic. Used to be amazing- now I am less than pleased. Shame

    Always excellent, but had a bad experience that management did nothing to resolve until we sat for 2 hours waiting to pay! Ridiculous!

    Potatoes are hot!

    Okay for tapas, the garnachas aren't very peppery... And don't touch the paella pan - it's really hot.

    Restaurant was empty. We waited 20 minutes at our table and nobody came to even take our drink order. Left and won't be back.

    Order white sangria's instead of red ones. Much better tasting ones.

    Avoid the Tatas Bravas... they are nothing like what you get at People or Babareeba if that's what you want!

    Avoid unless you plan on drinking heavily. Maybe then the food would taste halfway decent.

    Yeah. No. This tapas place leaves a lot to be desired. Stale bread. Tough meat. Underwhelming at best.

    Don't be fooled by the reviews on Yelp. This place is NOT very good. Actually it's terrible. Not great tapas. Skip it.
