    I was excited to try Las Ramblas as I am 1/2 Spanish. The food did not disappoint. The beef carpaccio, gambas, barrata and suckling pig were great. Standouts were the Gambas and beef carpaccio. However the noise level was so loud that I could not stay for dessert and I had a "let's get out of here feeling." The restaurant was so loud I could not hear my husband sitting across from me very well. I normally wouldn't blame the restaurant for this but it was obvious that the tables were too close together. You are literally right next to your "neighbor" to the point where you can shake hands with them easily. I felt bad for the waiters as the paths to walk in the restaurant were so narrow that they were having problems walking.

    Noisy, tables packed in like sardines. No cheese plate in a tapas place? Charged for bread that was 2 pieces of a half of a pita bread. Not going to make it. Doesn't deserve to. Food itself was OK but nothing special, not up to the level of other popular tapas places in the area.

    We love the location and the ambience! Our drinks were nice ant the service and staff were excellent. The small plates , first and second, were just too small… it’s like we didn’t eat at all. I am not a biig serving person; in fact I often take half my dinner meals home. The chicken dish was tasty but tiny; the snapper dish was the same. However both were very tasty.

    The staff was excellent! The ambiance was really nice. The pricing was too much for the small portions. The food was mediocre....both in taste and expectations. The $5 tuna tartar is a spoon sized portion. $5 per bite seems hefty. The burrata was great, especially with the warm bread. The cheesecake had a weird texture and consistency. The calamari was too breaded. The churros were delicious.

    Excellent service, but our family of four concluded the food was barely reminiscent of Spain (where we just spent two weeks) and far overpriced for what it purported to be. The $95 wine was not worth it, either ($42 at retail). The place was nearly empty, too, despite showing no availability for reservations except at 500pm, which we took. we stayed until about 620pm, and there were more empty tables than filled ones, and lots of idle wait staff. Gotta wonder, then, why they put us by the front door, which was left open. Ambiance achieved modernist chic, but without substance (the food) to make the experience worthwhile. Driving in and out of that congested part of North Hills, and finding parking, was also time-consuming and stressful. We won't be returning.

    The restaurant was beautifully decorated and the wine glad was gorgeous! Our server was super knowledgeable and amazing. The food came out really quickly when we ordered it and it was all piping hot...I like it hot;) we sent the mushrooms back. The sauce was not good and it tasted like eating a piece of wood and a lemon. The drinks were not great- we ordered 3. We finished one, begrudgingly. One was returned. It was too tart- we had asked for sweet. I force finished mine. I don't like sweet drinks and it was very sweet and all of the fun was at the bottom. We also ordered a glass of wine and the wine was ok, not the best cheap wine I've had, but it was OK. Wanted a smooth red worth no bite, but there was a little bite. The dessert was not good. It was not sweet at all... we had the churros and the chocolate mousse. The churros were soft and dusted with very little sugar and cinnamon, which was fine, but the chocolate sauce was not sweet and had a fruity note. The mousse was not very mousse like. It wasn't very soft and again it had unsweetened fruit on top. I knew it had the fruit, but I expected a little sweet and didn't get that.

    Started out fine but deteriorated rather quickly. Food and service was a disaster. Food was brought to table that we didn’t order and didn’t even know what it was. Server offered no apologies or insight. It took awhile to have her come back and when she did she didn’t take everyone’s order and quickly left. Basically dropped off our bill and said nothing. Food was hard to understand and did not look like it’s pictured. It was our first time there and probably last. Disaster 😞

    Went with a friend to celebrate her birthday. Service was ok but was very loud and hard to hear server. We ordered 6 different tapas and I would only reorder 1 of them. Food came out quickly but nothing was memorable. Tables were very close together, was barely able to scoot through (and I am small). It felt like you were dining with the people next to you. I probably would not go back.

    The flavor and dish selection is very good unfusrtunualy portions are on the small side and my vermouth was a half glass. In my opinion the restaurant lacks on the authentic Spanish experience, from the traditional free tapa with drinks and the some what small choice of dishes to the very noisy restaurant we felt kind of missing in the dinner experience. Don’t get me wrong, every dish we try was amazing, flavor and presentation. We share 3 dishes, the croquetas, octopus and the chorizo and my only complain is on the croquetas which tasted great but they where on the tiny size and only 2. We also had 2 vermouth which in my opinion where kind of small “ half glasses “, I been in Spain several times and when you order vermouth you get a full talk glass at a lower price. Also the restaurant was on the laud side, I was sitting across from my wife and we had to literally scream at each other so we can hear our conversation even though we got sited in a are away from the bar which was completely pack with what look like a privet event, so many people that on the way out we got told us to use the side door which led us tho the patio siting area. Overall I will give a 8 out of 10 just because good Flavors where great.

    Las Ramblas was an above average experience. The food was delicious and authentic, if a bit smaller than we’re used to at other tapas restaurants. The service was knowledgeable and attentive. The noise level was…loud. It’s a building full of hard surfaces and loud music so even though the restaurant wasn’t half full, we could barely hear each other without shouting. If you like tapas, I’d recommend it.

    Was so excited to try this place out, but unfortunately, it did not live up to expectations, at all. The food lacked flavor and everything just tasted ‘off’. Every dish had some level of disappointment. The plating was impressive, but overall, the food and experience was not. Do not get the Honey Gem Salad that claims to have tuna belly. It’s lettuce with canned tuna.

    Had family in town and wanted a fun night out. Ordered a lot of different dishes. Service was attentive. Food arrived at a steady pace. I’m the menu is clear about what to expect on each plate (2 pieces1 piece, etc) which is very helpful. Having said that I would have liked to see the portions be a bit more substantial. The coquette s were fantastic but tiny. Overall everything was really delicious. I might have been in the wrong mood for a tapas night, but it always fun and I like the variety. I’m sure we will return. The cocktails we tried were exceptional (whit Negroni and aguta Valencia).

    I was so disappointed in our meal tonight. I waited several weeks after opening intentionally to let some kinks get worked out. Positives were that the space was lovely, the bar stools were comfy and the staff was nice. I would not say that the staff was knowledgeable however. No advice was offered about the menu. The drinks were not well made and too sweet. The food was bland and many of our dishes came out cold. I was super under-whelmed.

    Let's talk about the amazing food, atmosphere and service. Chef Brian Jenzer is killing it with this wonderful Spanish Tapas restaurant. We went for our Valentine's Day celebration and this is everything we had. To start, Croquette, Beef Carpaccio, and the Barceloneta Bomba. My starter favorite was the Beef Carpaccio, the bread was crispy, foie gras was delicious, cannot go wrong. The main dishes we had were the Spanish Octopus, Suckling Pig, and the special for the night (photo included). I don't recall the name but it had crispy rice, topped with mushrooms and thinly sliced pork belly that literally melted in my mouth. AMAZING! Dessert was also phenomenal. The Churros came with this dipping sauce that had hints of lemon and hazelnut, and the Chocolate Mousse was topped with crushed almonds, white chocolate, chocolate pop rocks (yes, your read that right) and pomegranate seeds. My cocktail was the Por Le Gente, sweet and sour with lime juice and passion fruit. The photo of my drink is from my first trip to Las Ramblas, my friend enjoyed a spritzer that was also delightful. Our server, Kayla, was very sweet and attentive the entire night. I was very impressed by her as the place was bumping the entire time. If you haven't gone yet, you need to go.

    Fantastic food, exceptional flavors. My partner and I ordered 2 small bites, accompanied by 4 sharing plates, 1 dessert to share, and 2 drinks each. This amount of food and drink left us delightfully satisfied. Wonderful ambiance, artfully designed murals. Seating is intimate. No issue with parking. I would absolutely return to Las Ramblas again.

    We were so excited to try this restaurant but sadly weren’t impressed at all and won’t be coming back. The food was alright but not authentic Spanish style. Decor and ambiance were good but if you get the steak be prepared to sweat and smell like a fire after leaving dinner. A table across the restaurant ordered it and the smell and warmth filled the entire place. We ordered their red wine special bottle, that was definitely the best part of the meal. Just how we like a red and a very good price.
