"It was the first time there. It was good but they were having staffing issues and it took away from the evening. I would give them another chance in a month or so to see if they were able to regroup and geteverything in order."

"We were a group of 10 who has enjoyed Tapas restaurants before. We ordered over 30 small plates and were shocked when all arrived at one time and very shortly after our order was placed. You get the sense all the food was just reheated and served like a mini buffet served on our table. Food was good but not outstanding and the method of mass delivery plus the background smell of cigarettes from the smoking section doesn't help. One gets the sense of the word "Tired"."

"I adore this place. It transends me to Spain. It's so very real until I have to leave.
The Sangria is perfect. Order it by the pitcher you'll want to drink it all. The fried eggplant with cheese sauce is amazing. I am a big seafood lover and I adore the salmon, calamari, octopus, and peppers stuff with shrimp and scallops in a lobster sauce! Wow, you won't be disappointed with any of these dishes. If you love Spanish guitar they cetainly do it right here. It's an electric atmosphere. Next thing you know, you'll want to do the Flamenco!!!

"The food was good, but not exceptional. The wine was over-priced - I paid $30 for a bottle of something I could buy (but don't) at CVS. The service was absolutely horrible, but I think it was an exceptionally busy night so maybe they weren't expecting the crowd and were understaffed."

"The food was pretty pricey for small portions. I understand it is a tapas restaurant, but I've had better in the area. Just comparing to other local Spanish restaurants, the service was pretty cold. I wasn't made to feel like they wanted me to come back. They did have flamenco that night which was very good."
