    I was going to order the burritos without cheese, but the waitress told me that the cheese could not be removed, so I suspected that they serve re-heated frozen burritos. I ordered a biscuit breakfast sandwich instead; honestly, Mc Donald’s has a better taste. The only thing I like is the potato on the side; it's very crispy and tasty.

    The food is great and I love the atmosphere, but we were sat at a table where your feet dangle and can’t touch the ground, and you have to really tuck your feet back to rest them on a bar which isn’t comfortable, and my legs were aching the whole dinner so I will request next time to not sit at one of those tables.

    The Valencia orange salad was soggy, from too much dressing. The ‘pretzel’ was more like pull apart bread. The chicken sandwich was good.

    We had an inconsistent experience. This restaurant is tapas style but the server made it sound like family style, much different size expectations. We loved the butter that came with the biscuits, the Brussels, and the strawberry shortcake (phenomenal). The pasta was good and definitely house made but didn’t stand out and was a tiny portion. The chicken was very hard to share. The noise level was very loud and combined with how dark the restaurant is, it was comfortable. Our server said the food would come out one at a time and in order of course but it didn’t. The timing was very spread out and the entire meal took two hours. We were very tired by the end. The staff was very nice!
