They gave us a choice when we drove up of parking on the street or using the valet parking, as their lot was already full. We just parked on the street and had no problems. We had the Chicken Piccata and Short ribs, plus a simple greens salad to split. Everything was delicious. They brought the salad split into two bowls for us, and each portion was more than enough for a side salad with a meal. Chicken was very tender and flavorful. The short ribs fell apart and had great flavor. Accompanying Brussel sprouts were glazed and a real treat. The risotto was excellent as well. Alicante is higher priced than we would spend except as a special outing, but it is worth the money.

                                                                              Is this helpful?
