    Another amazing dining experience at Bravas. Loved the appetizers and the Paella is the best we've had in the US. Every item we have had on their menu hasn't disappointed us and the ambiance outside is great when its warm. It's a top date night destination!

    Like all of the Starks restaurants, Bravas does not disappoint. But this meal was truly exceptional. The exceedingly fresh seafood, the addictive eggplant chips, the crisp yet friendly service… Amazing. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

    Excellent service and stellar tapas. Standout scallops, octopus, and calamari. Light, super flavors and perfectly cooked. Pan tomato was also delicious! !

    One of our favorite places to enjoy a lovely afternoon nosh is an outside table with a sparkling sangria and yummy Spanish inspired dishes, beautiful and quiet. The tables inside come with more noise but still a very cute, cozy place with consistently yummy foods!

    The food was very good. The octopus was not as moist and tender as prior visits. Probably left on the grill too long? Understandable that the service was a little slow due to it being Mother's Day. Very busy!

    My partner has rarely eaten tapas so was amazed by the variety and the flavors I chose for our dinner. The cold beet salad was excellent - easy to eat and so tasty. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the pork cheek bocadillos were melt in your mouth. Each of our 8 dishes was delicious with my only complaint that the rum balls were a bit oily.

    We have eaten her a number of times, good food, service and ambiance. We had great cocktails this time. Food was a bit off. The Patata Bravas were not crispy as usual. Strange $18 Dungeness crab stuffed pepper appetizer was mostly sauce, very little crab, if any, and 2 flat small peppers. The paella was tasty and well done. The dessert rum balls were basically large fried donut holes and very little rum taste. The biggest complaint was that the hightop table by the fireplace was a cold arctic wind tunnel. We asked several times for the air to be adjusted. It was the vent above the table. We had to rotate seats as it was so cold.
