Diner Reviews
  • "I was very disappointed at the service provided. Our food arrived 1 1/2 late and our food dishes did not arrive at the same time. I had to sit and wait for another 10 to 12 minutes while everyone else's food came out. The food was not warm either. Our waitress lumped everyone on the same check and didn't itemize our drinks. We couldn't tell how much to pay towards the bill. We never got our birthday dessert either. When I made the reservation I specifically said it was a birthday celebration and I was told the waiters would be asked to do something. Nothing was done, the birthday person was never acknowledged and nothing was done to compensate for our food having been served so late! The service was terrible."

  • "They opened 10 minutes late. The host was not welcoming and walked us to a table in middle of the dining room and dropped menus and walked away. It was so dark we needed flashlight to read menu. When asking waitress what she recommended she pointed to the sampler platter. Portions were small, was not hot and the aoli was as thick as toothpaste and almost no flavor. Our guess is it was just mayonnaise. After 2-1/2 hours we tried to get the check, this took 25 min. This place has so many problems it's hard to know where to start. Just drive past and enjoy a happy meal...!"

  • "The food was pretty good. I was afraid to go when I read some pretty bad reviews on Yelp, so… I was pleasantly surprised with the taste and quality. It's a bit on the expensive side for what you get food-wise. However, you need to realize that you are also paying for great Spanish music and dance performances! The singer was excellent!! After the performance, we danced salsa and other Latin rhythms. I liked music selection! My friends, my husband and I had a great time!"

  • "Paella was just okay, not nearly as delectable as explained in the reviews. Sides were below expectation. Drinks and flamenco dancer saved the experience."

  • "Food took an hour to arrive and drinks were left bone dry far too long between refills. Food was mediocre and definitely not worth the wait. The dancing and entertainment are great but I'd eat elsewhere first."

  • "Not happy with the food. Yes you serve a large portion which was generous but the quality of the chicken was gross, my husband and I will not have dinner there again. The entertainment was fabulous so it made up for the food. All and all it was worth the money. We will be coming back and bringing others."

  • "Very unique place. Spanish restaurant all the way, with Flamenco shows on the weekends. Ordered a couple of Tapas and some paella, and the paella was excellent. Loved the show and the performers were very interactive with the large crowd. There where a few large parties celebrating, and I think I will be back with some friends."

  • "We visited for lunch and so it was relatively quiet, which made for patio dining very pleasant. The food was very good - large sizes and flavorful. The restaurant is situated in what feels like a business park so, from the outside, it looks rather plain...but when you step inside, you feel like you've stepped into a restaurant truly in another country...and this was at lunch, so I can imagine when it is full and they are having their performances, it must be amazing. They even make lunch on the little patio next to the parking lot feel special. I can't wait to visit for dinner!"

  • "Tapas is THE place for passionate Salsa dancers and people who like latin-american music. It is a fun high-energy place, safe and clean. Waiters and concierge very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to go back next week : )"
