Marc SchneebergerSeptember 25, 2018Tapas are great and its cheap because its BYOB. The only thing I dont like is the change of the dipoing olive oil to butter! Go back to oil. Like in my home country :)
Carolina RevillaDecember 1, 2014Shared the park with my husband and two tapas and the amount of food was just perfect. The food was great and the service was very good. The downstairs has a store that sells authentic Spanish treats
Richard RevillaNovember 16, 2014Queens based Despaña comes to Princeton. Speciality is their paella buy try the market place downstairs. Gambas in garlic are amazing.
Lance LacoffOctober 4, 2014Solid tapas with nice upstairs outdoor eating available. Nothing amazing but good options. Churros with chocolate sauce for a nice dessert. Friendly staff & BYOB.
mark mcmahonOctober 28, 2013Wonderful tapas. We ate upstairs. The service was good and the food excellent. A lot of food so do not go overboard ordering.
Kelsey LMarch 25, 2018The food here is okay. Don't get the Galician octopus. One paella was undercooked the other was too saucy- both w/O crispy rice on the bottom. Ambience is nice but a bit noisy, service is friendly.
Jack VirdeeAugust 13, 2014From romantic dinner to the World Cup with friends ... Great place! Fantastic food.
JeszikaaSeptember 2, 2013Paella mixta and "dry" sangria, but make sure to get your wine across the street @ varsity liquors :)- Marc SchneebergerFebruary 16, 2017It doesn't make honour to really good spanish food.... disappointed
Peter VermeulenAugust 31, 2013My son and I were alone in this new tapas bar - the staff was so junior and unfriendly
Jon CatlinJuly 24, 2017One of the best restaurants in Princeton. The balcony seating upstairs is perfect in summer.

"My new favorite "fast food" in Princeton. Many traditional and unique pizza flavors freshly made and available by the slice. Lots of vegetarian options - even a vegan pizza. Gluten free choices, too!"

"Definitely get the vanilla sea salt caramel. It's a taste of heaven in your mouth! Price ranges for ice cream is kind of pricey but totally worth it for ice cream lovers."
Jennifer Wu - 8.6
"Delicious, no-frills ice cream. Better than Thomas Sweet and Bent Spoon for plain ice cream!"
Andrea Plasko - 8.1
