David NguyenMarch 30, 2014Fun atmosphere and tapas are great! Lobster mac n cheese is loaded with lobster. Drink service was a bit slow but the bar is very crowded.- Dr. BOctober 21, 2011Food and service were awesome. Lobster mac n cheese, white mussels, and oreo beignets. If you're having trouble locating it, ask for The Big Gay Tapas Place ;-)
Anna RApril 4, 2015Lobster mac and cheese yum yum. Need a new dishwasher had to return stemware several times.

Maddie LippincottMarch 15, 2019Incredible mezze board. Service was 2/10, though. They brought our dinners at different times so we had to wait to eat. It also took more than an hour to get our check.

Campbell BirdOctober 20, 2014Paella for two is totally worth it and appropriately huge. Yelp check in for free sangria.
Radairis DiazNovember 12, 2017Overall this was a below average experience. For one we felt a bit rushed. The waiter dropped the check off before we asked for it & said "no rush." The paella was off. Best part was the mac & cheese
Philadelphia MagazineDecember 1, 2010Great for brunch! Order the brunch-rita (a margarita with a touch of OJ) or the Brazilian Pop, which has pomegranate liquor, mango puree and champagne. Read more

Minteng ChenJune 25, 2011Good place for a drink on the side walk on a summer night without having to put up with the rowdy teenagers that hang out a few blocks down.
Dú. HendersonJanuary 23, 2013The meat and seafood paella is beyond the bomb, minus the chorizo though...
