We have had bad luck with Tappas places but this one was great! The service was spot-on and the food was delicious. I especially liked the saffron old fashioned I got.

Very good! We love Spanish food and wine, so we were looking forward to trying this restaurant almost directly across from the Curran Theater. We made reservations but almost had the place to ourselves at 2:30 in the afternoon after a Saturday matinee. The restaurant is in a lovely space attached to the lobby of the hotel next door, and although it was quiet during our visit, I'm pretty sure it's bustling during normal meal hours. We weren't quite hungry enough to taste all we would have liked, but enjoyed some tapas recommended by our kind waiter -- Secreto Ibérico, Oxtail, and Grilled Prawns -- along with grilled bread and a delicious bottle of Tempranillo. Note -- if you plan to have 2 glasses each, it's worth it to get a bottle here. The prawns were very slightly dry, but the meats were outstanding. Overall the food was rich and succulent, accentuated with lots of Spanish olive oil and garlic. We'd definitely return and I'd love to try more dishes next time. Delicioso!

We chose this place due to its location near the Curran Theater. We generally like Spanish food and were looking forward to this meal. The food was only “ok”. The tapas (dates w/ goat cheese & bacon) (cannelloni with chicken & béchamel sauce) were good, but the paella was not good. The meat bits were tiny and it needed salt. The white sangria was good, but we did not stay for dessert.

Mussels were fishy. Huge huge and not fully cooked and smelled like they had expired. No yummy broth, very dry, weird lemon suds on top. Food was overall bad. Paella also terrible and included even more mussels. Restaurant was empty on a Friday night, we should have known. Hands down the worst meal of our lives. Server was nice and sent round of drinks. Still had to pay for expensive paella. It was my night to pick the restaurant and I was mortified.
