    Very good food and good service. Please get a movable ramp to make your restroom accessible. It's not funny.

    The lentil soup was fantastic and so were half of the tapas. It was a hit or miss, For example, patatas bravas didn't have the right (original, Spanish) sauce so they tasted weird and were undercooked; the octopus was great, on the other hand. The paella tasted really bad - it was too oily and the rice was watery, almost soup-like. We just couldn't eat it. The service was great, though.
