    The service and friendliness were apparent from the moment we walked into the front door and extended through every interaction until we left. The decor and ambiance were indeed beautiful although the environment was very loud. My favorite touch was the small lamps on the table. They illuminated the food by allowing me to visualize the delightful presentation and adding another one of my senses to the enjoyment of the meal. Our waiter was very helpful in navigating the menu. He suggested four tapas plates, two each for my wife and me to share and then a paella dish to share. That was more than enough food. Two of the tapas plates, iberico jamon and tomato cheese bread were really terrific. The prawns, fresh and juicy were in a cream sauce that was overwhelmed by the contrasting strong flavors of the other tapas. A revisit of the prawns the next day in isolation was delicious. The eggplant chips were surprisingly sweet…to sweet, as I anticipated a more savory dish. The star of the night was the Paella, full of rich flavor and texture coupled with a crispy edge. I couldn’t help but keep eating in spite of the fact that I was no longer hungry. Because it was my birthday I was gifted the most delicious chocolate cake. They used a very good quality chocolate which added a long finish to my taste buds. I tried a mocktail for the first time…the Nina Colada. What a delicious drink that was. The host , dressed in a tropically themed suit, was most gracious and spent just the right amount of time table side making us feel most welcome. We can’t wait to return for a different selection of tapas and more of the paella!

    This is the third time I’m there and jt gets better every time. The service and ambiance is excellent, but the real star is the food, which is amazing! Best paella I’ve had! The croquetas and churros bravos are so good, and it is impossible not to have a dessert. Already making plans to come back this weekend!

    Incredibly letdown to be completely honest. Before we even get into the food, the service itself felt incredibly rushed. Once our food is ordered, it came so quickly and took over the entire table that was barely any space and within 30 minutes everything was already served. We couldn’t really enjoy the food because we were trying to hurry onto the next thing that was now taking over our table. Between my husband and I we ordered six drinks, all but one was actually good (one was a slushy which nowhere on the description did it actually say that). Paella negra left a lot to be desired. The pan con tomate was just wet. The chorizo was okay but temp was weird. The oxtail was probably the most interesting thing that we had, but would I have it again? Probably not. Restaurant itself is beautiful, but the food and the staff have a long way to go. Maybe we’ll come back in a few months once things have been worked through, I know it’s a pretty new establishment. This might be a place for people wanting an introduction to Spanish food, but if someone who really likes Spanish food, I was really let down. Once our food is ordered, it came so quickly and like took over the entire table that was barely any space and within 30 minutes everything was already served.

    The food was delicious, and the place looked incredible. The bartender was very knowledgeable and provided detailed information about the house drinks and the menu. Thanks a lot, Andres! I hope to visit again soon.

    A great addition to the downtown dining scene. Fabulous from start to finish -- ambiance, staff, drinks, and food. Sandy was an excellent server, engaging with her customers, making several menu suggestions, and providing well-paced service. Definitely give the calamari appetizer and the squid ink paella a try. This just might be our new favorite restaurant for downtown Palo Alto.
