Best Spanish Restaurants in North Hollywood

We got off to a very rough start! We texted the restaurant to inform them , due to CRAZY LA traffic, we were going to be approximately 20 minutes late for our reservation. The response was very off putting. We were told that the 10 minute grace period would be strictly enforced and we would be marked as a no show and put on a waiting list. We arrived in fact 16 minutes late for our 5 o clock reservation. The hostess remained firm in adhering to the policy and was unhelpful and negative. I prevailed upon her to see what she could do. Hesitating to be helpful was unacceptable and there’s a serious issue with training to make guests feel welcome. A second hostess did in fact say that she could make it work, acting as if a big gift was being given. Fortunately the food was so spectacular it made up for a truly inhospitable start. Another issue is the staffing for the bar. We ordered 3 cocktails. After quite a long wait only 2 showed up. Another ten minutes at least went by for us to be informed that there was an issue with one if the ingredients in the third cocktail. The server did agree to comp the drink. The hostess issue and bar service prevent me from giving an overall good review despite the fabulous food and beautiful setting and view.

The Parera’s bravas and paella were really good. The sangria’s were very good as well. Our service was top notch! I will definitely be back and probably take more people with me so we can share more.

It very nice and 3 star like setting. Everyone was nice. Most of the food was a hit. Can't win it all. The wine pairing is more on light side. 7 pours for 20ish dish. So it's like sampling. If you really want to enjoy, then buy a bottle or bring your own. It's like every 10min there is a dish. You will be full. I think if the price is around $300 before getting the star. It would be perfect and then once it get some star then move to $400.

Service was just slow at high top bar area to get drinks/check but overall good experience

Location and views were amazing but could have had a more enthusiastic energy from server. Server didn’t clean up table before, very disappointed.
